Chart Objects

Description

Chart objects are basic drawing elements that are commonly used in technical analysis to mark and illustrate various chart properties. The following chart objects are used in Qtstalker:

To create a chart object, right click with the mouse on the chart you wish to apply it to. This can be either the main chart area or any of the indicators that appear in the indicator chart area. Select "New Chart Object" from the popup menu so the following dialog appears:

After selecting the chart object type you want to create, another dialog will appear asking you to give a unique name to the chart object. If you enter the name of an existing chart object, an error message will appear.

After entering the chart object name, the mouse pointer will change to a hand pointer and a message will display in the status bar explaining what is needed. Usually, just select the point you want the chart object to appear by clicking the left mouse button. The object will then appear on the chart.
