- Volume Charts: Users can view volume charts that represent the trading volume of selected commodities over time.
- Correlation Heatmap: The application generates a correlation heatmap that shows the correlation between different commodities based on their price movements.
- Date Range Selection: Users can select the start and end dates to specify the time range for data visualization.
- Ticker Selection: The dashboard allows users to select specific commodities from a dropdown menu to visualize their price data.
