Retícula (Crosshair) y ventana de valores (Alternar con doble clic)

•  Al hacer doble clic en cualquier área vacía del gráfico, quiero que se muestre la "Ventana de Valores del Gráfico" (la ventana flotante negra con Apertura, Máximo, Mínimo, Cierre y Volumen) que se actualizará a medida que me muevo por las velas.
•  Al hacer doble clic de nuevo en el gráfico, esa ventana flotante negra debe desaparecer.
•  Y todo ello sin que la herramienta cruceta se desactive en ningún momento, aunque esté utilizando otra herramienta como los retrocesos o líneas de tendencia, tal como ya le he configurado
•  Mientras me muevo por el gráfico sin abrir la ventana negra, necesito ver los valores de la barra (O, H, L, C, V) mostrados de forma estática en la parte superior, en una cinta o franja horizontal estrecha. Esto podría integrarse por ejemplo, en la Barra de Control 1 o en una cinta igualmente estrecha justo debajo de ella.

Muchas gracias.

Un saludo desde Málaga (España)

From Google Translate:
• When I double-click any empty area of ​​the chart, I want the "Chart Values ​​Window" to appear (the black floating window showing Open, High, Low, Close, and Volume), updating as I move across the candlesticks.
• Double-clicking the chart again should make that black floating window disappear.
• All of this must happen without deactivating the crosshair tool at any point—even when using other tools like retracements or trend lines, as I have currently configured it.
• While moving across the chart without the black window open, I need to see the bar values ​​(O, H, L, C, V) displayed statically at the top, within a narrow horizontal strip or ribbon. This could be integrated, for example, into Control Bar 1 or a similarly narrow strip directly beneath it.

Thank you very much.

Best regards from Málaga (Spain).

In order to have the crosshairs always displayed, set the following to "Always On When Using Other Tools":
Chart Drawing Tools: Action When Other Tools Selected (Global Settings >> Tool Settings >> Chart Values >> Chart Values)

To display the "Compact Tool Values Window" select "Window >> Show Compact Tool Values Window". Refer to the following:
Window, CB and CW Menus: Show Compact Tool Values Window (Window)

With the Compact Tool Values Window, it will always be displayed. There is not a way to have it only display when clicking like with the regular "Tool Values Window". You can move the window whereever you want to put it. And to have it display horizontally, set the following to "Yes":
Chart Drawing Tools: Use Horizontal Compact Tool Values Window Layout (Global Settings >> Tool Settings >> General >> Chart Values)

Gracias, olvidems el doble click. No es demasiado importante.

En todo caso, si me lee con atención verá que el problema no trata de la ventana de valores de herramienta, sino la de "chart values", valores del gráfico

Entré en (Configuración global >> Configuración de herramientas >> General >> Valores de gráficos) como me indicó y puse "Sí" en "Use Horizontal Compact Tool Values Window Layout"

Resultado: A) la ventana valores del gráfico NO se muestra como ticket horizontal
B) La ventana solo muestra lo valores de OHLC (Apertura, Máximo, Mínimo, Cierre) de la última vela del gráfco. No sigue a la cruceta de precio a medida que va marcando las distintas velas del gráfico, mostrado los correspondientes valores de cada vela.

Gracias

From Google Translate:
Thanks; let's forget about the double-click issue—it's not that important.

In any case, if you look closely, you'll see that the problem isn't with the tool values ​​window, but rather the "chart values" window.

I went to (Global Settings >> Tool Settings >> General >> Chart Values) as you instructed and set "Use Horizontal Compact Tool Values ​​Window Layout" to "Yes."

Result: A) The chart values ​​window does NOT appear as a horizontal strip.
B) The window only displays the OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) values ​​for the chart's last candle. It does not track the price crosshair as it moves across the different candles on the chart to show the corresponding values ​​for each one.

Thanks.

You are using the wrong window. The Chart Values Tool does exactly what you are stating - it only shows the most current bar information. You need to use the "Compact Tool Values Window".

Ok, arreglado. Muchas gracias.
Ya tengo la ventana que quería en forma de cinta.
Tiene algunos campos que no me interesan, como el bid y ask volume, puedo eliminar estos campos de la cinta?
Hay algún botón que pueda poner en control bar 1 para que aparezca y desaparezca la cinta del gráfico?, pero siempre en la misma posición, como ya la tengo configurada: en forma de cinta en la esquina superior.

De verdad que lo intento, pero no encuentro el modo. Gracias de antemano por su ayuda.

Okay, that’s fixed. Thank you very much.
I now have the window I wanted in the form of a tape.
It has some fields I’m not interested in, such as bid and ask volume; can I remove these fields from the tape?
Is there a button I can add to Control Bar 1 to toggle the tape on and off on the chart—while keeping it in the same position I’ve already configured (as a tape in the top corner)?
I’ve really tried, but I can't figure out how to do it. Thanks in advance for your help.

You can remove columns from the Time and Sales window. Refer to the following:
Time and Sales Window: Columns

Note that the interface has changed for the Time and Sales window, so it will not look like the images in the documentation, but you just select the "Columns" tab and then set the columns you do not want to "No".

There is a Control Bar button that you can add to open the Time and Sales window. It is under the "File" section. There is no button to close it, however.

Gracias, pero me temo que no ha relacionado mi última pregunta con la anterior, de ahí que su respuesta no es adecuada.

Lo que necesito es quitar algunos campos de la "Ventana compacta de valores de la herramienta", como por ejemplo los datos de volumen bid y ask porque me ocupan espacio en la pantalla y no los necesito.

Muchas gracias

Thank you, but I am afraid you haven't linked my latest question to the previous one, which is why your answer is not suitable.

What I need to do is remove certain fields from the "Compact Tool Values ​​Window"—such as the bid and ask volume data—because they take up screen space and I do not need them.

Many thanks.

You previously referenced the "tape", so we assumed you were referring to the Time and Sales window.

To remove fields from the Values Windows, refer to the following:
Chart Settings: Chart Values Field Settings (Button) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Display >> Chart Values menu)

Hola. Gracias por su respuesta.

Siento insistir pero...la verdad, no encuentro lo que me dicen en el menú gráfico-) configuración del gráfico -)visualización -)menú valores el gráfico.
No encuentro el apartado "visualización", ni el apartado "menú valores del gráfico". No sé quizás, es porque tengo una parte del menú en español y otra en inglés (aunque lo he tratado de traducir).
Entro en gráfico y después en ajustes del gráfico, a partir de ahí todo está en inglés y no veo esas opciones que ustedes me dan de "visualización" o "menú valores del gráfico"
Me puede orientar por favor, cómo encontrar esa sección para conseguir eliminar algunos campos de la ventana "Valores de la herramienta compacta"
Gracias

Hello. Thank you for your reply.

I apologize for insisting, but honestly, I cannot find the path you mentioned: Chart Menu -> Chart Settings -> Display -> Chart Values ​​Menu.
I cannot find the "Display" section or the "Chart Values ​​Menu" section. Perhaps it is because part of my menu is in Spanish and part is in English (even though I have tried to translate it).
I go to "Chart" and then "Chart Settings"; from that point on, everything is in English, and I do not see the "Display" or "Chart Values ​​Menu" options you described.
Could you please guide me on how to find that section so I can remove certain fields from the "Compact Tool Values" window?
Thank you.

Attached is an image of where this is located. We have put a rectangle around the particular setting. The item on the right that states "Chart Values Field Settings" is a button. Select that button to get the next window that will give you the options to turn on/off the different items.
