Bar point range represents the range of the instrument (stock) for the day. Its top is the high of the day. Its low is the bottom of the bar, or low of the day).

If there's a small bar on the left of the bar, that's the opening price and the small bar sticking out of the right side of the bar would be the closing price.

Hope that helps!

The range figures are commonly represented graphically. The primary features are the high and low range, plus its start and stop (open and close) prices for the day.

For instance, one dog I was into until today was ACLS. It opened at 6.35, dropped to the day's low of 6.33 almost immediately. Then it shot up to the day's high of 6.48, whereupon it fell like a rock to 6.38. At this point I lost my patience (this company had grown some 17 percent this year and in one day dropped almost 20 percent, so I was expecting to regain ground or I was dumping it), so I sold it at 6.36, and it flopped around in a narrow range to close (last price) at 6.39, a penny above the previous day's close. Graphically, then you mark those boundaries (my sale price is just descriptive filler, ignore that), they define the bar (or box, or line, or whatever) dimensions within the scale of your graph.
