I'm not sure which country/culture first adopted this convention - China, Japan, etc.
- eloisius 5y agoThis confused me when I first came to Taiwan. I noticed in a TV drama that the candlestick colors were “wrong” and chuckled at the clueless writers of a low budget drama, and forgot about it. Then one day I opened the Stocks app on my iPhone and was very confused to see all my gains in red. It’s because I had changed the region in iOS.
