Bar Charts 

Here you see an example of a bearish bar. In this case the securities closing price was lower than its opening price meaning that the stock closed lower for the day. So if the opening price was at $30.00 and the closing price was at $28.00 the stock would have finished the day down 2 full points. 

If you evaluate the bar further you will also notice that intraday the price dipped lower than the closing price of 28 and at some point during the day bumped up higher than its opening price of 30.
