How do I use the Trend Line tool?
One important tool that technical analysts utilize is the Trend Line. Many uses have been developed, but the most important idea is that Trend Lines can help spot important chart movements. They may serve to help identify significant price points when determining trends, breakouts, and resistance areas.
To Draw a Trend Line: Click on the Trend Line tool button. A yellow box will appear in the upper left-hand corner of your chart to indicate that you have chosen the Trend Line tool. Move your mouse over the chart to the area where you would like to start your Trend Line. Click, drag, and then release at the point you would like to end your Trend Line. This will create a gray line with two round balls on the ends. There is no limit to how many Trend Lines you can draw on a chart at one time.
To Move a Trend Line: Click on the round ball at either end of the Trend Line you would like to move. Then drag your mouse and release it wherever you would like. You can use this to alter the angle or length of each side of a Trend Line.
To Remove a Trend Line: Move your mouse over to the left-hand point of your Trend Line until you see a small grey box appear. Click on the box to remove the line.
How do I use the Fibonacci Retracement tool?
Use your Fibonacci Retracement tool to help you determine significant price points and retracement levels.
To draw Fibonacci Lines: Click on the Fibonacci Retracement tool button. A yellow box will appear in the upper left-hand corner of your chart to indicate that you have chosen the Fibonacci tool. Move your mouse over the chart to the area where you would like to start your Fibonacci retracement. Click, drag, and then release at the desired data points.
To move your Fibonacci Lines: Click on the green circle at either end of the diagonal line on your retracement. Then drag your mouse and release it wherever you would like.
To Remove your Fibonacci Lines: Move your mouse over to the upper left-hand side of your Fibonacci retracement lines until you see a small grey box appear. Click on the box to remove the lines.
How do I save my chart settings?
Our Flash charts will automatically save your chart settings. Every time you recall a chart, your studies (with the exception of trend lines) are placed on your chart the way you left them.
Since the trend lines are specific to each market and change as price action changes, the trend lines will not save and will have to be redrawn.
Since your Fibonacci Retracement lines are very specific to each market, the lines will only save to the market you applied the Fibonacci tool to.
How do I access the Talking Chart technology?
Turn on your speakers and click the Talking Chart button at the top of any chart to hear a verbal analysis of the market based on our proprietary indicators and scoring tools. The audio analysis will be based on price action and the Chart Analysis Score that corresponds with the specific market characteristics of the symbol you have selected.
