Other Features

This post is about the slideshows related to (i) working with multiple instances of a chart, (ii) creating custom charts (a.k.a. MyCharts), and (iii) sync’ing X-axis of multiple charts for analysis in ChartAlert

1–2 minutes

Open multiple instances of the same chart for a variety of ways of analyzing that same chart.

The following is possible . . .

Create and view (simultaneously) the same symbol – say, ACC – with different templates — say, Moving Averages, Technical Analysis Studies, etc — plotted on multiple instances of the same symbol
Tile multiple charts of the same symbol vertically or horizontally for analysis
Synchronize x-axis of multiple charts for left-and-right scrolling
Save multiple charts to a single Workspace

Invert Chart/Scale

This post is about the slideshow related to inverting a chart — or the Y-axis or price scale — in ChartAlert

1–2 minutes

To stimulate a contra view, the following features are available in ChartAlert . . .

Invert the y-axis – price-scale – of a chart

Templates or Chart Layouts

This post is about the slideshows and demo videos related to creating an unlimited no. of Templates and using them over and over again across charts in ChartAlert

1–2 minutes

Templates are custom files created by end-users, and contain technical parameters of a chart.

Let us suppose you like to analyze symbols with DMI, MACD, RSI, Stochastics, Bollinger Bands, Parabolic SAR, 20-/ 50-/ 100-/ 200-day EMA.

Plot all of them on a chart and save all of this information in a Template . . . then apply the Template to any other chart with just a few clicks.

The result: 10 Technical Analysis studies plotted on any chart with less than 3 clicks . . . or 1-click with a keyboard shortcut.

WatchLists / MyFavourites

This post is about the slideshows and demo videos related to creating an unlimited no. of MyFav / WatchLists and using them for charting and scanning in ChartAlert
