Chart Indicators
Description:
Indicators are calculations performed on chart data.
Capabilities:
Indicators such as moving averages can display overall price trends for a symbol, allowing you to get a better overview of the long term price direction.
Quick Tips:
Indicators can be added via the Add Study icon which can be found on the chart toolbar, or by right-clicking in the chart window.
Add Study allows you to choose an indicator or highlight and modify the parameters or arguments prior to adding it.
If you wish to alter or remove an indicator, you should use Graph Explorer.
Like Add Study, Graph Explorer can be found on the chart toolbar and also by right-clicking in the chart window.
Graph explorer allows you to change the arguments for an indicator (that is already on the chart), remove indicators or chart sections, gives access to Add Study, and facilitates the creation of chart templates which allow you to add whole sets of indicators at once.
