In Track 'n Trade, we have two different styles of indicators. Overlay indicators, that lay directly over the top of our price bars, (which we’ll discuss in another video) as well as traditional oscillating indicators that display directly beneath the chart itself.

We can either add the second indicator to the same window, by right clicking and selecting another indicator, turning it on and off, or we can right click on the chart itself, and select “Add Indicator,” which will add an additional window below the chart, with ITS corresponding indicator.

Right click in the new window, which will allow you to turn on and off additional indicators within that window as well.
