Hello, I am using the numbers bars calculated values study to display some data at the bottom of the chart as is normal practice. At the same time I am wanting to access other subgraphs from within the numbers bars calculated values study and display them at certain regions in the chart with the text display study. It seems I can't do these two things simultaneously without having the subgraphs also visible in the numbers bars at the bottom of the chart, which kind of defeats the purpose. Is this correct? At the moment to use with the text display study, I can set the subgraphs within the numbers bars that I am wanting to see to 'visible' and then hide the entire study (but therefore also hiding the subgraphs that I want to remain at the bottom of the chart). Alternatively if I unhide the numbers bars study and 'ignore' the subgraphs that I wish to display in a different area of the chart with the text study, the text study can no longer access this data I guess because it has been set to ignore. Is there an easy way around this problem without duplicating the numbers bars study?

You should be able to display the data from the Numbers Bars Calculated Values in the Text Display for Study even without the particular subgraph being set to display in the Numbers Bars Calculated Values. Tell us exactly which subgraph you are trying to reference and which study you are using to display the text.

The problem is those two specific subgraphs. Since they are referencing the Pullback data, they do not get calculated unless the Pullback information is set to be displayed in the Numbers Bars Calculated Values. So, in this case, you do have to have them set to display. You could do, as you suggest and create a separate study just for those two and hide that study. That will also work.

I tried both 'text display for study' and 'study subgraph above/below bar as text' and neither worked. Ideally I would be using the study subgraph above/below bar as text if possible.
