- right-click on watchlist table and proceed to "Indicators" -> "Add indicator" option. This opens an indicators lookup screen, where you should select the required one.
Indicators in watchlist are very useful
- through the icon "Add indicator" in the upper right corner of the Watchlist panel
There are two ways to add indicators in the panel
When you select an indicator, you will see the new column (with the selected indicator name) added to the right side of watchlist table. To remove indicator, go to the Indicators category in the context menu and click the “Remove Indicator Name” option.
Some indicators need time to calculate their values. You will see the “Initializing...” text in such cells.
If you have created (or added) a custom indicator in the platform and want to add it to the Watchlist panel, you need to add an additional parameter to the code. More information about how to do this is given in our guide "Adding a custom indicator to Watchlist".
