Where are we going?

We will create a chart that shows the stock prices in candlestick form in the main chart area, along with a semi-transparent overlay of the volume. Bollinger Bands will be applied to the chart, and a scan will be added to a lower chart area to indicate whenever the stock crosses above its upper Bollinger Band.

You will learn how to add chart areas and apply indicators and scans to those areas.

You will learn how to remove indicators and scans from a chart area whilst leaving others untouched

You will learn how to modify the settings of an indicator or scan and see it automatically update the chart when you do so.

You will learn how to view the actual values of the security Open, High, Low and Close prices as well as the values of all of the currently charted indicators.

You will learn how to save a chart layout for easy recall and use later

So, let's get started.
