Overview#

The chart area helps you inspect a model visually, move through price history, and focus on important levels and forecast markers.

This guide explains what each chart control does and how to navigate the chart efficiently on desktop and touch devices.

Two chart areas#

  • Main chart shows the currently selected model in the primary workspace.
  • Analysis Board is the secondary chart used when you open a model in the analysis section for closer review.

Both charts use the same basic navigation ideas: zoom, horizontal movement, level overlays, and quick header actions.

Header actions#

At the top-right of each chart you can use these actions:

  • Take screenshot saves the current chart view as an image.
  • Expand chart opens the chart in a larger fullscreen-style view.
  • Restore chart returns the expanded chart to its normal size.

The Analysis Board also has a collapse button in its header so you can hide or reopen the second chart area when needed.

Mouse navigation#

Hover#

Move the pointer over the chart to inspect bars and see the current candle information, including open, high, low, and close values.

Zoom#

Use the mouse wheel over the chart area to zoom in or out horizontally.

This lets you inspect short local structures or switch to a broader historical view.

Horizontal movement#

Click and drag left or right on the chart to move through the time series.

This is the main way to browse older or newer bars without changing the selected model.

Selecting a bar#

Click a bar to make it the active bar.

If several models are linked to the same bar, repeated clicks on the same active bar can cycle through the available models for that point.

Touch navigation#

  • One finger drag moves the chart horizontally.
  • Two finger pinch zooms the chart in or out.

This makes the chart usable on touch screens and tablets without relying on desktop-only input.

Using the Analysis Board#

The Analysis Board is designed for a second, more focused chart view.

  • Open a model in the analysis section to load it into the second chart.
  • Use the same navigation panel logic there: Model ID, Min/max price, Fix scale, Levels, and Range.
  • Use expand or collapse controls when you want to dedicate more space to analysis.

Typical workflows#

Focus on a price zone#

  1. Enable the rectangle tool.
  2. Drag over the price zone you want to inspect.
  3. Keep Fix scale enabled if you want that vertical range to stay stable.

Check structural levels#

  1. Turn on the needed Levels checkboxes.
  2. Zoom and drag until the important part of the structure is clearly visible.
  3. Use the active bar and candle information for closer inspection.

Project the model forward#

  1. Enable one or more Range checkboxes.
  2. Keep the default 100 or enter another percent value.
  3. Use the dashed marker as a forward structural reference point.

Quick tips#

  • If the panel becomes compact on a smaller chart width, look for dropdown controls instead of inline checkboxes.
  • If you want to save what you are seeing, use the screenshot button before changing the scale or overlays.
  • If you need to share a model with someone else, copy the Model ID directly from the panel.
  • If the second chart is not needed, collapse the Analysis Board to free more workspace.
