How to Insert an Indicator Onto a Chart
Inserting a CC indicator is as simple as inserting any other standard indicator. Click here for instructions and example images.
Documentation
We have created a few PDF documents that will acclimate you to the way our indicator package works and common input values for most usages.
There is a known minor bug with the CC Indicator Suite™ and dt Pro where the indicators will not update if left alone for long periods of time (more than 30 minutes, typically). We are working to correct this issue, but the simple workaround is to just refresh the charts every half-hour or so, particularly for smaller interval time frames (ie 1 minute charts). 30 minute charts and above do not need refreshing as frequently.
Support
If you have any issues or questions related to the installation or usage of the CC Indicator Suite™, please contact support.
