Reset/Clear up chart

Recommended Posts

ngan82

Hello,
I was wondering if there's a way to clear up an active chart, meaning go back to the default chart window where nothing is drawn on it? I keep several thumbnail charts open with securities I want to look for the day. Sometimes I want to pay attention to only a few but do not want to close rest of chart windows which are not used. Currently the only time the chart window is empty is when you open a new chart window, otherwise DAS doesn't seem to allow removal of ticker once entered in the chart's config.
Any pointers are appreciated.

Did you mean the symbol (Ticker) on the background of a chat window? If yes, change the text color and background color same.

Best of luck.

Thanks zulkafil for responding.. I meant to make the chart empty to avoid noise/distraction without closing the window.. e.g. attached:

so the show title in the below screenshot is how you remove it but it's also not going to show when you put a ticker in.

I see you have the title bar showing at the top though so it would still show you there if that suits your wants.

My question is not clear.. have updated it to hopefully make it more clear. Thanks.

I think I found a way.. you can use a "-" (no quotes) in place of ticker symbol in 'Data Config' to remove the ticker from an existing chart.

Ah ok I understand what you mean now.

Yeah you can do what you said, other options I can think of is a tiny montage at the top like I have on mine (and do what you said with the "-") to save you going through data config every time or alternatively save your desktop with them all blank so they load everyday as defaulting to blank and you just fill the charts you want to use

good idea!

How to get that tiny montage at the top? My charts look like below and have a separate montage window.

Yeah it is a normal separate montage just shrunk really small to only show the top line, I only have the level 2 etc showing on my main trading screen. That screen is just 6 charts like that for things I'm watching but not actively trading.
