Hello,

I want to know how I can get an indicator to be plotted on top off the chart instead off behind off it?

If I plot for example an ema into the chart the ema is on the background off the chart and I want it on top off the candles so I can see them better.

Thanks,
JJ

Something like this?

I have never tried this before, but it seems to work.

This is how I did it. I have added two indicators to the price series, one in panel 1 and the other one in panel 2.

Then I transferred the price data to the panel 2 and deleted the indicator in panel 2.

There should be a simpler way of doing it.

@jsengxx2

Click on the EMA to highlight it. Hold down the shift key on your keyboard and scroll the wheel on your mouse. If you scroll the wheel slowly, you will see the EMA go on top of the candles then behind the candles. When it's on top of the candles stop scrolling. That's it.

Hope this helps,

Rick

@trs3042: Your answer is correct. I did not read the question correctly.

Thanks for putting this right.
