Price Panel View Options

Brief

The article explains how to show or hide the Price panel, move it around the chart, and specify the font color of its price presentation.

Details

The Price panel can be either displayed on a chart or hidden. When it is displayed, it can be moved around the four corners of the chart.
The font color of its price presentation can also be specified.
Please note that, in Marketscope, more than one chart can be opened at a time, and you can specify whether to show or hide the Price panel only for the current chart, the one you are working with at the moment. All other opened charts (if any) remain intact.

To show or hide the Price panel on the current chart, do one of the following:

• Right-click in the chart, and then in the menu that appears, select or clear the check box next to Show Price panel.
• Right-click in the Price panel, and then select or clear the check box next to Show Price panel.

You can choose to create new charts with the Price panel shown or hidden.

To show or hide the Price panel on all newly created charts, from the File menu, open the Options dialog box, and then, under Chart View Options, set the Show Price panel option to Yes or No respectively. For more information, see the Chart View Options article.

All new charts are created with the Price panel shown or hidden as it is specified in the Show Price panel option. All other already existing charts (if any) remain intact.

The Price panel can be placed at any corner of a chart, and its location can be specified for the following:

• The current chart only.
• All already existing charts.
• All newly created charts.

To move the Price panel around the current chart

Right-click in the Price panel, and then, in the menu that appears, point to Show Price panel location, and then, in the menu that appears, select one of the following options: Upper left, Upper right, Lower left, or Lower right.
The Price panel moves to the specified location only on the current chart, and all other charts (if any) remain intact.
