Hello,Having problem setting up a 30 Min Moving average on a 5 Min chart.When I follow the steps,not seeing the source study(it only shows (<Main Price Graph>).Any ideas?

This is the documentation step I'm following:


"Press the Settings button to open the Study Settings window. Set the inputs as explained below:
Study to Overlay: This Input lets you specify the specific study to overlay from another chart within the same chartbook. From the list of charts with this Input, select the chart that you want to overlay a study from. The next step is to select the specific study from the list of studies with this Input."

For the example i have here is a 30 minute chart with a 5 EMA and a 5 minute chart that i have a overlay on of the 5 EMA from the 30 minute chart. First off click the ''study/price overlay'' study under studies from your 5 minute chart. Then click on it in the white box. Then once you have it open follow these steps. #1. click on the ''study to overlay'' tab . Then step #2. at the bottom find the 30 minute chart your moving average is on. Then step #3. Click on the moving average you want to overlay . Then step #4 make sure its on chart region 1 .

Thanks,that worked.
Now I have a chart with the True strength Index on the 30 min chart in the subgraph below price,however on the 5 min it appears on same graph as price.How do I move the TSI Index to the sub-graph?

Open the ''True strength index'' study so your on the page with the settings. Then to the far left where you see ''chart region'' change the region to ''2''. If you already have a indicator in the sub-graph area then you may need to change it to chart region 3. Chart region 1 is always the main price graph.
