Hi,
Is there a way to display a chart with indicator only being displayed on the chart without any price bars

Sure. Go into "Data Series" and set the colors of all the components of the price bar to "Transparent." See below.

Before. Price with 2 indicators:




Now change the colors of the price bars:




Price now gone, indicators still there:





Bob.

Hi Bob,
Actually I'm looking to see the indicator in the lower section only of the chart.

Thanks,
Rob

OK, but here's an easier way:

Right-click on the lower indicator's value scale, over where the values are shown. Select "Maximize":





Boom:



This is simpler, and you can go back to showing both if you want by just right-clicking in the margin scale again and selecting "Restore".

Bob.
