Charting package for financial application

Hello,

We are a bunch of folks at a start-up building a financial application using C#. The application will be mostly dealing with stock volumes, quotes etc. For the same, we would require a charting package allowing us to build line charts, candlesticks, open-high-low charts etc. As our resources are pretty constrained at the moment, we would like to start with a free package that offers us more flexibility than the built-in charting API.

Looking forward to the suggestions.

Regards,
Rishabh.

Have you thought about using crystal reports... or maybe the google charts api?

Thanks for the reply. We were actually looking at an offline package solution, plus, Crystal Reports is paid, so that is out of the question for us. Do you know of any other?

Microsoft Chart Controls are free.
