Studies
Studies are technical indicators you can add to charts from the Studies menu. Our extensive library includes over 100 studies, many of which support multiple lines and permutations, giving you exceptional technical analysis capabilities.
Studies can overlay charts or appear in panels above or below charts. By default, some studies appear as overlays like the Moving Averages or Bollinger Bands; some others appear in separate panels, like the MACD or the RSI.
Overlays (and underlays, such as the Volume Underlay study) are studies that are superimposed on charts. Overlay studies include a context menu that can be used to modify the study or remove it from the chart.
Studies can appear in panels to separate the displays of multiple series, and the vertical size of panels can be changed by dragging the panelās top and bottom borders.
Panels include a toolbar that can be used to reposition or delete the panel. On desktop browsers, hover your mouse over a study to reveal the toolbar.
Secondary panel toolbar controls
Arrow up: Moves the panel upward in a stack of panels. If the panel is at the top of the stack, positions the panel above the chart.
Expand: Expands the panel and hides any other panels. Or, if the panel has been expanded, returns it to its former size and reveals all hidden panels.
Arrow down: Moves the panel downward in a stack of panels. If the panel is at the bottom of the stack, positions the panel below the chart.
Close: Closes the panel and destroys the study
To access the context menu
ā On desktop browsers ā Highlight the study by hovering your mouse over the lines or shapes that make up the study. Right-click to open the context menu. Select an item from the menu.
ā On touch devices ā Tap the study to open the context menu. Tap the gear icon to edit study properties. Tap the X icon to delete the study.
Drawings and annotations can be applied to overlay studies and studies in panels using the Drawing palette and Style palette tools.
A list of the studies applied to a chart is overlaid on the chart as a legend. The list of active studies is contained in the Active Studies section of the Studies menu, and in the Plots control, which appears on study panels or on charts when one or more studies overlay the chart.
