### Financial Charts Build interactive financial charts featuring advanced annotations with minimal configuration, all you need to do is provide your data: ```js const options = { data: getData(), }; AgCharts.createFinancialChart(options); ``` Once created, users will have a Financial Chart that they can interact with and add annotations to.

The default chart type is [Candlestick](https://www.ag-grid.com/charts/javascript/candlestick-series/?utm_source=ag-charts-readme&utm_medium=repository&utm_campaign=github), with additional types like [OHLC](https://www.ag-grid.com/charts/javascript/ohlc-series/?utm_source=ag-charts-readme&utm_medium=repository&utm_campaign=github) and [Line](https://www.ag-grid.com/charts/javascript/line-series/?utm_source=ag-charts-readme&utm_medium=repository&utm_campaign=github) for versatile data visualisation.

--- ### Maps The Maps Series let you visualise geographic data in different ways.

Maps can display data using [Shapes](https://www.ag-grid.com/charts/javascript/map-shapes/?utm_source=ag-charts-readme&utm_medium=repository&utm_campaign=github), [Lines](https://www.ag-grid.com/charts/javascript/map-lines/?utm_source=ag-charts-readme&utm_medium=repository&utm_campaign=github) and [Marker](https://www.ag-grid.com/charts/javascript/map-markers/?utm_source=ag-charts-readme&utm_medium=repository&utm_campaign=github) series: ```js const options = { topology: topology, series: [ { type: 'map-shape', data: pacific, idKey: 'name', title: 'Pacific', }, // ... ], legend: { enabled: true, }, // ... }; ```
