Charts & drawing tools

Every chart is live. BreakoutScan draws the pattern lines for you; the drawing tools are how you add your own thinking on top.

Where the tools are

Click Fullscreen on the stock page (or maximize a chart window on the Desk). The chart fills the screen and the tools appear on its left. Esc takes you back.

The tools

• Trend line — click two points — your own support, resistance or “I’ll care if we get here” line.
• Horizontal and vertical lines — mark a price level, or a moment in time.
• Measure — drag across a stretch of chart to read the exact move and how long it took.
• Fib retracement — drag from a low to a high and the standard levels appear — a popular way to guess where a pullback might pause.
• Volume profile — pick a start and an end to see where the most shares traded in that stretch, with its POC.

What stays

Lines are saved to your account per stock — draw a level today and it’s there next month, on any device. Measurements, Fib levels and profiles are temporary by design: they answer a question, they don’t decorate the chart. The bin deletes the selected drawing; click it twice with nothing selected to clear them all.
