Customization & Flexibility

MultiCharts is designed to offer you the ability to customize virtually everything you see on a chart, including chart windows, axes, background, grid, status line and more. The ability to modify every visual aspect of a chart provides unmatched flexibility in presenting data on charts because you can:

• Increase or decrease bar spacing, zoom in and zoom out on a chart, reserve empty space to the right and upper/lower margins.

• Select between various styles of the dynamic grid: point grid, solid grid, horizontal grid, dotted grid and detailed dotted grid.

• Display the vertical axes on both sides, i.e. with a scale for an indicator on the right and another for price data on the left, or hide the axes completely.

• Choose the font and style of the axes labels that suits you best.

• Display or hide session breaks as lines in the style and color of your choice.

• Change the visual order of the indicators and price.

Real-Time Market Scanner

The Real-Time Market Scanner (also known as "screener" or "quote window") is a high-powered Excel-like quote sheet. The Market Scanner tabular window accommodates thousands of symbols in its rows and numerous indicators in its columns. The Scanner is indispensable for monitoring, screening, searching, and organizing thousands of symbols according to defined criteria. Below is an example of just one of the many practical tasks that can be solved with The Real-Time Market Scanner:

You want to screen the market and find all the instruments that have been oversold recently. Since the price of such instruments will be below their normal value, they present a potentially profitable buying opportunity. Just add all the symbols the search will be based on into the Scanner window, insert a Stochastic indicator, and sort the values in the ascending order. The top of the list will contain symbols representing your best buying options.

The Scanner is used to solve a number of tasks that would be hard to address otherwise. The Real-Time Market Scanner is the ultimate tool to:
• monitor real-time market data in different resolutions (ticks, minutes, days, etc)
• find trading opportunities based on customizable criteria and sorting
• plot studies that could be either pre-built, customized, imported from a variety of sources, or created from scratch
 

• Scanner features:
  • 5000-symbol capacity (per Scanner window)
  • Symbol sorting either on a per-second basis or according to the timer
  • Ability to mix different data feeds within the same Scanner window
  • Operations based both on real-time and end-of-day data
  • Access to locally stored data
  • Support of different custom sessions for different symbols
  • Ability to use different resolutions across the rows
  • Support of all the resolutions available in MultiCharts
  • Linking of symbols within a Scanner window to a chart
  • Ability to plot a chart directly from the Scanner with a mouse-click
  • Ability to choose the number of bars/days back for study calculations
  • Custom visual, audio, and e-mail alerts
  • Dedicated market trend histogram
  • Direct access to PowerLanguage Editor to view and modify study scripts
  • Cell background and text coloring based on your criteria

Interactivity

The MultiCharts interface is object-oriented. This means that all movable charting items can be dragged-&-dropped and the axes are mouse-controlled.

Because all price charts, indicators, scales, and drawing tools are interactive, it makes the program's behavior fully controllable by the user.

When clicking on the needed object you will always see only relevant options, so setting the parameters of the objects and their maneuverability becomes easy and efficient.

Extensive Range of Chart Types & Intervals

MultiCharts offers you an extensive range of conventional chart types: candlesticks, bars, lines, dots, histograms, invisible bars, etc. In addition, the Volume Profile chart reveals information that is not obvious from standard volume data.

Our charts support time-based (second, minute, hour, day, week, month, quarter, year) and count-based compressions (tick, the number of trades, the number of contracts traded, price movement in points). MultiCharts lets you easily plot charts for any custom compression, for instance, 3 seconds, 20 ticks, 1000 contracts or 10 points.

Mixing time and count-based chart helps you visualize the true dynamic of the market, as count-based charts will plot more bars per time interval in a fast market and less bars per time interval in a slow market.

Additional Features

MultiCharts has many advanced features that you will not find in other charting and analysis programs. Here are just a few...

Symbol & Interval Linking

Symbol/Interval Linking saves you considerable time and makes working with charts more convenient. Thanks to this feature you can link a number of charts in one or several groups according to symbol name and/or resolution.

Each group is then marked by one of 14 accessible colors. If a symbol or resolution is changed on one chart, all the rest of the charts linked in this color group will be changed automatically.

Another unique feature of MultiCharts is that it is possible to link not only separate windows, but also subcharts inside one window.

It is important to note that you can link symbols and intervals separately, so you are in complete control of what your charts display. This is just one more way in which MultiCharts gives you the edge.

Load State Gauge

Load state gauge allows each trader to be sure that the data displayed on a chart is the most recent. Using this load gauge you will always be sure that all data is being processed in a timely manner and displayed on the screen.

If the program fails to load data, the gauge will become red and show the number of quotes in queue as well as the time lag in seconds. This is priceless tool in fast markets.
