What does those bars mean

 Hey, I´ve started playing on Chess.com this week, and would like to know what those black and white bars mean. At first, I thought it was related to accurance. Still think it does, but dont know how it is represented. Thank you

time. I used to think the same thing. For too long, actually

Oh, that is logic. Thank you

no problem

If you're talking about the black and white bar, the one to the far left that states -1.68, it refers to more or less who is winning at the current moment. Positive values favor white, negative values favor black (thus, in the above image, black is winning by 1.68 "pawns"). The values work off the standard notion that a pawn is one point. Well, an active pawn is worth more than a pair of pawns that are doubled and blocked, center pawns are worth more than flank pawns, active knights and bishops are better than "bad" bishops and knights on "dumb" squares (in the corners), and connected rooks on an open file are more powerful than when sitting in the corners idly. It basically calculates, based on piece activity, who is "winning" in a certain moment and by how many "pawns" (which of course is relative because it considers field position).

Thus, if you execute a sound queen sacrifice, even though you lose 9 points (in material), you'll likely see an increase in that number.

Well, this one was a doubt that I would ask in another Forum. You´ve antecipated my question...

Thank you!

wait, were you asking about the bar to the left, or the ones to the right?

In this post, about the right ones. 

okay, sorry. I just got a little confused for a second

No problem. Its my english...

you're fine

I just misread it

i think its your overall control on the board. controlling more squares, placing your pieces to better positions and capturing pieces increase it i guess

Is there a name to the numbers? centi pawn loss is not it, i understand.

Ok yes

For Whom It May Concern,

(For the Left bar) The White and Black bar shows whos winning the game. If you are The more white on the bar means white is wining. When you start the game the Bar in 0.0 because black and white are in equal positions but when black makes a blunder white goes up, and when you got Mate, the bar says M and the amount of move till' mate. For example, if black have Mate in 16 moves, the bar will say M16 if you got mate in 1 move, the bar will say M1. I hope this clears everything up. If you have further concerns or questions, please contact me.

Have a good day.

Ok sorry bout' the grammar errors, I for got to check

I give up, lol

oop. Forgot*

The grammar errors are the least of it. More importantly, this is a 3-year-old question that was already successfully answered with the very first reply, also 3 years ago. And no, your answer is not good, that wasn't the question.

I am sorry that I did not answer the question, but whether you like it or not, I tired my best, and you have no respect for me. Which leads me to report you 🥱
