Set the candlestick width in Plotly

• candlestick width is defined by number of candlesticks that are in a figure
• an approach to making them the same width is to plot the same number of candlesticks in various views
• below shows this technique - tail() dataframe so daily plot has same number of candlesticks as weekly plot

import plotly.graph_objects as go
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

# generate some data
df = pd.DataFrame({"time": pd.date_range("1-jan-2021", "now", freq="4H")}).pipe(
    lambda d: d.assign(val=np.random.uniform(5, 10, len(d)))
)


def candleFig(df, freq, rows=None, title=None):
    df2 = df.set_index("time").resample(freq).ohlc().droplevel(0, 1)
    if rows:
        df2 = df2.tail(rows)

    return (
        go.Figure(
            data=[go.Candlestick(x=df2.index,
                               open=df2["open"], high=df2["high"],low=df2["low"], close=df2["close"],)]
        ).update_layout(xaxis={"rangeslider": {"visible": False}}, margin={"t": 25, "b": 0},
                        height=150,width=1000, title={"text": title},),
        df2,
    )


fig_w, df_w = candleFig(df, "1W", title="Weekly")
fig_d, df_d = candleFig(df, "1D", rows=len(df_w), title="Daily")

fig_w.show()
fig_d.show()
