Click the reset icon, located beneath the +/- zoom levels in the top-left corner of the chart, to return the stock or forex chart to the default view.




  • Time interval / time frame view

    Stock and Forex charts can be viewed at time intervals from 1-minute up to monthly. When a time interval is selected it will default to the shortest time frame, but clicking a timeframe will load a chart at a longer time frame

    The +/- magnifying glass zoom in the top-left of the stock chart allows for cycling through time frames for a selected time interval. For example, clicking on the +/- magnifying zoom for a 1-minute chart will cycle through 2 hour, 4 hour, 1 day and 3 day charts.

  • Trend Line

    This line is anchored by two points on a chart. To create a price channel, select-and-right-click the line on the chart and do a line copy. Then, select an area of the chart, right-click-and-select paste.

    Similar to a horizontal line, except it marks a point in time. A left click on the line will display the move icon. Left-click-and-drag to reposition the line.




  • Ellipse

    Adds a circle on the chart, perhaps to highlight peaks and troughs in price action. The opacity tool within the Edit menu can be set so as not to obscure the underlying price action.

  • Rectangle and Rotation Rectangle

    The rectangle tool can be used to mark consolidation regions or thicker bands of support and resistance.

  • Text Note

    Comments can be added directly to the chart. Each note has four pointer anchors; one on each side. These can be dragged into position. Font size, margin padding and border thickness can be adjusted. Text colour and border colours and opacity can be changed too.




  • Fibonacci Retracements, Time Zones, Fan and Arcs

    Set Fibonacci anchors to peaks and troughs. Right-click-edit to change colours, opacity and line thickness.

    Set the three anchors so the mid-point is highest (for projecting price targets in a bullish trend) or lowest (for projecting price targets in a bearish trend). Adjust the zoom of the price axis with a left-click-and-drag up, to view outer range price targets.




  • Gann Box and Fan

    Used to define potential support/resistance and reversal areas. Use the opacity tool on right-click-edit to blend the gann box into the price chart.
