Creating Charts Using the Command Line Toolbar
A new chart can be created by entering the symbol parameters into the Command Line toolbar:
By default, the Command Line toolbar is displayed docked to the top of the application window. If the toolbar is not
displayed, it may have been hidden. To learn how to redisplay the toolbar, see Floating or Docking Toolbars
To learn more about toolbars, see Understanding Toolbars
Symbol parameters consist of the Symbol Name, Data Source, Category, and Exchange parameters. Depending on
the data source and the symbol category, one or more parameters are required on order to precisely identify the
symbol to be plotted.
Automatic Selection of Omitted Symbol Parameters
MultiCharts simplifies the process of symbol selection by automatically selecting, whenever possible, any omitted
symbol parameters, by analyzing the Symbol Name.
Note:
When symbol parameters are entered into the command line the first time that MultiCharts is used, the Data Source
must be specified.
Automatic selection of omitted symbol parameters is based on both the Symbol Name and on the Data Source.
Once specified a single time, the Data Source will be selected automatically if DataSource parameter is not specified.
Entering a symbol name alone is often sufficient to create a chart for a stock. For example, a plot for Google, Inc.
can be created by simply typing goog into the command line toolbar; all the other parameters will be selected
