Compact Lines In Fill Area For Intraday Studies

View Count: 1561

Is it possible to plot studies which create intraday levels (Initial Balance, Daily OHLC, TPO Value Area Lines, etc) in the fill space instead of across the chart?

A lot of platforms have a "compact lines" or some similar option in the indicator settings that allow you to plot them this way.

For example, instead of something like this: http://s9.postimg.org/gsma6ljnz/lines_full.jpg

You can have something like this: http://s3.postimg.org/8vm9blvjn/lines_compact.jpg

The Current Price Line study has this ability in that you can choose to "Display Current Line on Chart Bars". If you select no, it only plots it in the fill area.

Can this be added to the following:

Initial Balance
Daily OHLC
High/Low for Time Period(-Extended)
Highest High/Lowest Low Over N Bars
Horizontal Lines
Pivot Points Variable Period
Study/Price Overlay
Study Overlay - OHLC
TPO Value Area Lines
Weekly OHLC

?

Thanks.

We initially marked this as a user discussion because of the extensiveness and complexity of the request.

However, there may be an easy way this can be done universally for all studies and we will see about that.

I support this request.

But in the meantime I have been using a work around that nearly gets you there. In my case it is fine as i don't use a very wide fill space.

Basically I use the Short Name field in the Sub Graphs settings of the Study.

Hast his made it onto the "to do" list yet? I keep asking because you mentioned that "there may be an easy way this can be done universally for all studies" a few months ago.

Looks like it might be in the latest release, although I have not downloaded to check it.
