Studies are valuable tools that assist traders in their analysis, allowing them to draw channels, support lines, and price lines.
Draw lines, insert objects and draw freely by accessing the Studies menu:
In the Edit option, it is possible to Undo or Redo recent changes applied to studies. Also, Cut, Copy, Paste and, Delete options are available.
It is possible to activate the Studies Bar in the View menu.
Select the Toolbar, then click on Studies.
The bar will automatically open in the vertical position on the right side of the platform.
Drag it by holding the end of the bar with the mouse, then release to reposition.
To add the studies bar to the left side of the chart, right-click on the chart and go to Studies Toolbar.
Set the visibility and priority of tools in the study bar. To do this, go to Settings and navigate to Chart > Studies.
Check Customize study bar and move the desired studies from the Available Studies column to the Selected Studies column.
Unselected studies will be grouped at the end of the bar.
When plotting a study, such as price level, a small options bar is displayed.
Through this bar, you can: move it within the chart window limits, change the color, thickness, and style, enable the asset's alarm (which will trigger when the price breaks the line), lock, delete, and access the study's properties.
Studies are synchronized by asset. This means that if you plot a resistance line on the EUR/USD chart, it will be replicated across all EUR/USD charts in every layout.
