Click and drag to change the timeframe. This highly useful feature makes it very easy browse historical chart data.
CUT, COPY, PASTE
As hard as it is to believe, these features do not exist in all charting software. The simple ability to copy and paste a trend line or text is something that we would all expect.
SEMI-LOG SCALE
Most of the time a linear scale is sufficient for plotting market movements. Over longer periods of time or with quickly moving markets, a semi-log scale can be necessary.
UNDO AND REDO
We all make mistakes, sometimes several in a row. Undo and redo help to ease the impact of these mistakes by quickly correcting them.
DATA EDITING
Anomalous trades and sometimes bad data can cause the real data to be squeezed to the top or bottom of the graph. Tools for removing these data points are often very important to allow you to continue your analysis.
TEXT FORMATTING
Fonts, font size, bold, italic, text alignment, colors. When writing commentary these are features we have come to expect in all software.
SNAP TO LOCATION
Trying to position a line or resize point at the exact high or low of a price bar can be tedious without this feature.
LINE FORMATTING, COLORS, ETC
Line width, dashes, line colors and fill colors. These features are very useful for differentiating parts of your analysis.
LAYERS
Layers make it easy to quickly show or hide information on a chart. With a single click, you can remove or add all of the commentary, analysis, orders or order history.
