Chart β€” Technical Indicators

Indicators are studies layered onto the chart β€” either on the price (overlays like moving averages) or in their own sub-pane below it (oscillators like RSI). FutPrint ships a broad library covering classic technicals as well as order-flow, profile and options-specific studies.

Overlays draw on the price pane (here, daily volume profiles); other studies get their own sub-pane (CVD, Bar Stats).

Adding an indicator

  1. 1
    Open the indicator browser

    Click Indicators in the chart toolbar. The browser lists categories on the left, the indicators in the middle, and a Settings / About pane on the right. Your own scripts appear at the top under My scripts, and indicators already on the chart are listed under Added at the bottom.

The indicator browser open over the chart, with categories, the indicator list and the settings pane (dark theme)
The indicator browser.
  1. 1
    Find the indicator

    Pick a category to narrow the list, or type in Search indicators…. Click the star beside an indicator to keep it under Favorites.

  1. 1
    Select it and review its settings

    Click the indicator. Its options appear in the Settings pane so you can adjust them before adding; the About tab gives a short description.

  2. 2
    Add it

    Press Add Indicator. Overlays draw on the price; other studies open in their own pane below the chart. The indicator now appears under Added.

Added: the profile is on the chart and listed under Added.

Changing an indicator's settings

There are two ways in:

  • From the browser β€” open Indicators and click the indicator under Added. Its options load in the Settings pane; changes apply as you make them, and Done closes the browser. The Γ— beside it removes the indicator.
  • From the chart legend β€” hover the indicator's row at the top-left of the chart and use the icons that appear: the eye hides or shows it, the gear opens its settings, and the Γ— removes it.

The legend row for Volume Profile, with its hide, settings and remove icons.

Indicators in their own pane (CVD, Bar Statistics and others) also have controls on the pane title: Maximize pane, Hide, Settings, Reset view and Remove. Drag the divider above a pane to resize it.

The arrow under the legend collapses it to a single Indicators chip when you want the chart clear.

Managing everything on the chart

Layer Manager in the chart toolbar lists every layer on the chart β€” the price series, each indicator and your drawings β€” in drawing order. Use it to hide, lock, reorder or remove layers, and to group them.

Overlay vs sub-pane

Trend/level studies (moving averages, Bollinger Bands, VWAP, SAR, Ichimoku, profiles) draw on the price. Oscillators (RSI, MACD, Stochastic, MFI, CCI, …) and volume/delta studies open in their own sub-pane so they don't crowd the candles.
