Hi,
Was wondering if there was an easy method of adding an indicator to an indictor in the same panel.For instance,in one of my panels I have Historical Volatility plotted.
I woudl like to simply add a moving average of the Historical Volatility indicator.I know how to do it,but the scales are not compatable.How does one SIMPLY drag and drop
a moving average without having to change parameters?

Thanks,

Allan

Best Answer
You can add an indicator using the default scale or using a custom scale by updating the last parameter of the "Plot" function.

Example:

Plot(rsi(14),"RSI",colorBlue,ChartLine,StyleSymbolNone);

Plot(rsi(14),"RSI",colorBlue,ChartLine,StyleOwnScale);


It is currently not possible to create a moving average of an indicator using drag and drop operation.

You have to use the "Add Indicator" or the "Formula Editor" control.
