Bar chart and candlestick

An bar chart with candlestick is technically possible with the core visuals of Power BI, however it requires a huge amount of report-specific objects and Macguyvering effort..

Limitations

There are some limitations to this Macguyvered implementation.

  1. There are too many report-specific objects required.
  2. Axis sorting doesn't always work.
  3. The X-axis maximum is hard-coded.

Considerations

Instead, consider creating this visual using Deneb or finding another way to express comparisons between actual and target, like a bullet chart.

Alternatives

An alternative approach to create this visual in Power BI is by using the Deneb custom visual.
