hi support, i don't like having too many different time frame charts open on my screens and at times find it a pain to see, with speed, which time frame i'm in just by looking at the info bar at the top of the screen.

is there a way, each time i change the time frame, i can have the time frame number show up either highlighted or on a different area of the chart and larger (preferably)?... maybe like a text label but one which automatically changes when i select a different time frame?

tia.

Try this for time based charts:

Add these two studies to each chart:

1. Bar Time Duration. Make sure it's hidden.

2. Text Display For Study. Set the Study and Subgraph to Display to the Bar Time Duration study. Set Subgraph Columns Back to 1. Set the Value Format dropdown to Time.


Now adjust the location / color / size of the text as needed using the settings for the Text Display study.



If you use tick charts:

Instead of Bar Time Duration use Number of Trades study. Set the Value Format of the Text Display for Study dropdown to 1.
