What would you use this icon for?

Candlesticks are the normal for financial charting. Go to TradeView or something if you want examples.

It's a charting type that shows high, low, open and close all in one bar.

It would be very similar to chart-bar but with the bars off the x-axis and floating with varying x coordinates.

Give us an example of what this icon might look like.

Just the the bar-chart but the bars are lifted off the x axis and there are three.: A bar just a bit off the bottom of the x-axis. A bar a bit high than the other, by about 30% (will be filled. the bar will not be an outline but instead fully colored) And another lower than the last but not as low as the first. About 20% off the bottom.

Need to add a "wick" to each, which is just a vertical line on the top and bottom that signifies the high and low of each day. The wick will be from the center of each bar. I would suggest google candlestick charts and it will make sense right away, as it's harder to type and understand. It's a very simple icon.
