Adding & managing indicators

Add technical indicators from a searchable menu split into two groups: Overlays that draw on the price chart, and Oscillators that draw in their own pane below it. Each added indicator gets a legend chip with a settings gear and a remove button, so tuning and clearing are one click away. Indicators are saved per panel.

Overview

Section titled “Overview”

The indicator menu is searchable and divided by where each indicator renders. Overlays - moving averages, bands, trend tools - sit directly on the candles. Oscillators - momentum and volume measures - render in a separate pane stacked beneath the chart, on their own scale. Once added, an indicator shows a legend chip: click the gear to change its parameters, click remove to take it off. Your set is remembered per panel, so each chart panel keeps its own indicators.
