Is there an indicator that shows the day of the week, i.e. Tuesday on the chart? thanks,

The current day of the week? Or the day of the week of each bar on the chart?

I'd like to see Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday on the banner of the chart along side the date, if possible.

Thanks,
John

I would recommend you use exchange day of the week and time and not your local pc day/time. if you trade non-us markets such as the Japanese yen, Hang Seng, French CAC, or even the DAX it will be more useful.
It will help immensely when you have DST (Daylight Saving Time) that is different from your local DST.

Bottom line localize to the market you are trading not to your local time. I made my own indicator is where my knowledge on this came from on this subject so you can learn from my prior research.

Hope it helps.

I actually had that indicator in my arsenal but it won't display on the subpanel. Any ideas why not?

Seems to work fine so long as New Panel is used when it is added rather than Same as Input series.

Check that you don't already have a stored template for it in Templates/Indicators with a problematic panel number setting.
