blank - When a Marker is not used,
select the first item on the list which is blank. |
|
Two sizes of arrow markers are available. The
arrow will draw relative to the arrow point. 4 block markers of different thicknesses are available. These blocks will draw full bar width so that they make a continuous band when used on a fixed Marker Location such as Top Row 1. Example |
|
4 line markers are available with different horizontal lengths. The line marker with the arrow head on the right side will draw to the right edge of the chart. Example A large variety of shapes are available. They include blocks, rectangles, squares, stars, circles, dots, digits, upper and lower case letters. These markers could be used in lieu of a line in plotting a study. Example |
|
SLP - Shows the Slope of a line segment. A variety of histogram markers are available which draw in different bar thicknesses. This histogram can be drawn down from the top of a window, drawn above and below the center of a window, or drawn from the bottom of a window. Example |
|
Four of the Histogram markers which draw from the bottom of a window can be offset slightly leftward or offset slightly rightward from the normal alignment with the center of the bar. This permit more than one histogram to be shown by interleaving the histogram bars. Example The next four markers draw histogram bars between two values. The first value will be the DYO Line the marker is located on, and the 2nd value will come from the next DYO Line. Example |
|
The first 4 markers in this image do a solid fill from the top of the window, center, bottom or between 2 values. When 2 values are needed, the 1st value comes from the DYO Line with the marker and the 2nd value comes from the next DYO Line. On a Channel study, put the bowtie marker on the Lower Band line. Example 1 Example 2 The next 4 markers also do a solid fill, but use 2 colors for when the study curve is ascending or descending. The 1st color will come from the DYO Line with the marker, and the 2nd color comes from the next DYO Line. |
|
Four markers are included the can draw a Bar, Candlestick, Ensign Rocket, or Ensign Flute. The marker needs 4 values in the order of High, Low, Open, and Close on 4 adjacent DYO Lines. Place the marker on the 4th line with the Close value. Example 1 Example 2 VOL & Ave VOL - These 2 markers sum the
bar volumes in the span between the 2 ends of a Draw Line. The
Average VOL marker will divide the sum by the number of bars in the
span. |
|
| ZON - Show a vertical zone stripe from
the bottom of the chart to the top of the chart. This can be used
to color sections of the chart background. Example
1 Example 2 BGD - Sets the background color of the chart or of the sub-window. Use cautiously as this can be CPU intensive. Example A/B - Sets the color for the Ask/Bid sub-window histogram bar. VOL - Sets the color for the Volume histogram bar in the volume sub-window. Color Bars - Sets the color for the chart's bar or candlestick. Have the Color Bar study selection on Normal so the coloring done by this marker does not conflict or compete with a Color Bar study. Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 |
|
3 study curve markers that use 2 colors are available. The
1st color will come from the DYO Line with the marker and be the color
used when the study curve is ascending. When the study curve
is descending, the color will come from the next DYO Line. Example DEG - Show the slope of the line in Degrees, like reading an angle on a protractor held to the screen. |
