I have been using Google Charts [1] for a couple of years and I am 
satisfied with it so far. And they have candlestick charts too [2].

Previously I fiddled with a variety of different charting libraries [3] 
such as Chart.js [4], which seemed very good although limited to a few 
chart types at the time. Later on I decided to use Google Charts because 
of some interesting features they provided, besides a vast documentation 
available online.

Michael Haufe suggested using D3.js [5], which is a robust library for 
data manipulation and graphics programming in general, thus having a 
steeper learning curve. That's why I think D3.js will be overkill for 
your need, although it is worth learning it for more advanced use-cases.
