You can also compare performance of multiple stocks by first selecting the percent (performance) scale and then selecting multiple symbols. Please note, that when you enter a new symbol, it is automatically added to the list of favorite symbols for your convenience. Working with indicators To display technical indicators select from the options available in the second toolbar.

Acceleration (ACC): Chart pattern where the rate of change of share price increases sharply. Accumulation Distribution (AD): Tracks the buying pressure and selling pressure. Average True Range (ATR): Volatility indicator. Balance Of Power (BOP): Momentum indicator that measures buying and selling

pressure, giving an indication of the degree in which individual stocks and the market in general are overbought or oversold. Bollinger Band (BOL): Provide several useful signals including confirmation of trend and an indication of volatility. Bollinger Oscillator (BOS): Computes the position of closing price relative to the width of the Bollinger Bands. Chaikin A/D Oscillator (ChAD): The degree of buying or selling pressure can be calculated by the location of a close relative to the high and low for the corresponding period. Chaikin Money Flow (ChMF): Intended to show whether a given equity is within a buying trend (money flow in) or a selling trend (money flow out). Chaikin Oscillator (ChO): Created by subtracting a 10-day EMA from a three-day EMA of the accumulation /distribution line. Chaikin Volatility (ChV): By comparing the spread between a security's high and low prices, it quantifies volatility as a widening of the range between the high and the low price. Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO): Determines the momentum of price data by comparing the size of recent negative price changes to the size of recent positive price changes. Commodity Channel Index (CCI): An oscillator that provides an indication of overbought or oversold markets Detrended Price Oscillator (DPO): Smoothes the trend in prices, allowing more easily identifiable cycles and overbought/oversold levels. Directional Movement Index (DMI): Helps determine if a security is "trending." Ease of Movement (EMV): Illustrates the relationship between volume and price change. Exponential Moving Average (EMA): This type of moving average reacts faster to recent price changes than a simple moving average. %D Fast (FastD) %D Slow (SlowD) %K Fast (FastK) Force Index (FI): Combines price movements and volume to measure the market. Intraday Momentum Index (IMI): Combination of the Relative Strength Index and Candlestick Analysis. Mass Index (MI): Range oscillator that uses changes in daily trading price and provides market reversal forecasts Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD): A trend following momentum indicator used to signal trend changes and to indicate trend direction. Signals are generated by crossovers and divergence from price. MACD Oscillator (MACDO): Converts the two lines of the MACD into a single line that fluctuates above and below zero. Momentum - type 1 (MTM1): Measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in a trend Momentum - type 2 (MTM2): Measures the speed of price change and provides a leading indicator of changes in a trend Money Flow Index (MFI): A divergence between the money flow index and price trend can warn of a possible trend reversal. Negative Volume Index (NVI): Used in conjunction with the Positive Volume Index, it's an attempt to identify bull markets. On Balance Volume (OBV): Used to either confirm the current price trend or warn of a possible reversal Parabolic SAR (PAR SAR): Useful in catching new trends early Positive Volume Index (PVI): Calculated based on price movements on days with increased volume. Percentage Volume Oscillator (PVO): Percentage difference between two moving averages of volume. Price Oscillator (POS): Shows the variation among two moving averages for the price of a security.

Price and Volume Trend (PVT): Cumulative total of volume that is adjusted depending on changes in closing prices. QStick Indicator (QStick): Developed as a way to quantify candlesticks, the indicator is a moving average of the difference between the opening and closing prices of an issue. Rate of Change (ROC): Momentum indicator measuring velocity and also leads the price action Relative Strength Index (RSI): Provides early warning of a sell or buy opportunity Relative Volatility Index (RVI): Used to measure the direction of volatility. Simple Moving Average (SMA1, SMA2, SMA3): The average stock price over a user defined period. Standard Deviation (StDev): Statistical measurement of volatility. It measures how widely values range from the average value. Stochastic (STS): Determine when a market is overbought or oversold Trend Deviation (TRD): A moving average of volume is divided by another, and a

smoothed rate of change. TRIX Index (Trix): A 1 day rate of change of a triple exponentially smoothed moving average of closing prices. Ultimate Oscillator (ULT): Sensitive to buying and selling pressure and offers reliable signals Volatility Ratio (VLT) Volume Moving Average (exponential) (VOL EMA) Volume Oscillator (VOS): Makes use of the difference between two moving averages of volume to determine if the overall volume trend is increasing or decreasing. Volume Rate of Change (VROC): Displays the ROC of the security's volume Williams Accumulation Distribution (type 1) (WAD1): Tracks the buying pressure and selling pressure Williams Accumulation Distribution (type 2) (WAD2): Tracks the buying pressure and selling pressure Williams' %R (%R): Anticipation of market reversals
