Whereas Median Price, Typical Price, Weighted Close and Line charts use only closing prices to plot, Bars and Candlesticks use all four pieces of pricing information viz. Open, High, Low and Close.
	The Charting Module provides for several forms of price-plot overlays such as: Bollinger Bands, DEMA, Donchian Channels, Envelopes, Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, Parabolic SAR, T3, TEMA, Time Series Forecast, VIDYA, Wilder's Smoothing, Zero Lag EMA, etc. It also provides for overlaying Volume, Volume+Deliveries and Price-by-Volume study on the price plot. As far as Moving Averages are concerned, there are 9 types available for charting/ screening purposes: Simple, Exponential, Time Series, Triangular, Variable, Volume-adjusted, Weighted, Welles Wilder, Zero Lag Exponential.
	The Charting Module has 80+ Technical Indicators to help analyze charts and facilitate trading decisions. Studies can be drawn directly on a chart (overlaid on the price plot like a moving average), or drawn in one or more sub-windows (like Relative Strength Index in a separate sub-window on the chart). You can also quickly browse through all Technical Indicators in a single sub-window instead of plotting multiple Technical Indicators in multiple sub-windows.
	The Charting Module includes the fundamental construction tool of chart analysis viz. Line Studies. They are tools that traders draw to analyze chart patterns, and interpret price movement. They are instrumental in measuring price-and-time relationship, and include such characteristics as slope, channeling, retracement percentages, etc. Line Studies in ChartAlert® can be drawn, edited, deleted, zoomed, scrolled and saved for future use.
	The Charting Module comes with a Heikin-Ashi chart function for cash market stocks. Although Heikin-Ashi charts are considered slower than candlestick charts, they help cut down on erratic market volatility. And when used in conjunction with candlestick charts, they help improve isolation of trends, i.e. trends can be located more easily to predict future market prices, and trading opportunities can be spotted at a glance.
	The Charting Module comes with a Relative Performance chart function for cash market stocks. You can plot upto 10 tickers on a base ticker to compare how all the 11 tickers have relatively performed over a specified period of time, including from the time of inception of these tickers. For plotting RP charts, tickers have been neatly organized as "Indices" or "Sectors" or "A to Z" or "Peer Group".
	The Charting Module comes with a Monthly Trading Ranges (MTR) function that plots resistances, supports and the Hinge Price (critical price level) for the upcoming 1-mo period. The MTR function also includes an automated price channel on the chart to facilitate trading of 1-mo futures contracts.
	The Charting Module comes with a Fibonacci Retracement Zone or the AutoFibonacci function that innovatively plots fibonacci resistance and support levels for fixed periods of 4-weeks, 3-months, 6-months and 12-months on a chart. The function can be plotted on the daily, weekly and monthly scale.
	The Technical Analysis Mask (or CAW Mask) is a template that has been designed by us for select NSE F&O portfolio of stocks (120+), including the S&P CNX Nifty component stocks (~50). Maintained & moderated by our analysts, this Mask allows you to see short-/ medium-/ long-term channels, trendlines, and supports & resistances laid out on the chart.
	The Candlesticks Mask is a template that has been designed for all NSE cash and futures stocks and BSE Group-A stocks. The template allows traders to see end-of-day, end-of-week and end-of-month Bullish and Bearish, and Reversal and Continuation candlestick patterns, all overlaid on the chart.
	The ElliottWave Mask is a template that has been designed by us for the limited portfolio of 20+ stocks that are analyzed in the ElliottWave Advisory, a short-/ medium-term advisory product published in the Advisory Module. This Mask allows traders to see short-/ medium-/ long-term ElliottWave price labels, ElliottWave channels and supports & resistances marked out on the chart.
	The Trading Systems are a collection of powerful tools that keep you informed about the current status of a particular trading strategy for a particular security by displaying buy/ sell/ exit symbols on the chart. They are TA-based strategies that contain complex trading rules. They have been designed on the lines of advisory tools published through the Advisory Module, and they have been screened & ranked for 50% of the NSE cash stocks.
	The Trading System algorithms that screen NSE stocks at end-of-day for potential buy & sell signals also come with the ability to backtest a security and list the detailed statistics of that particular trading system. A typical TS Stat report includes: Symbol, Sector, Type & Rank of Trading System, Recommendation, Net Profit, Retention Rate, Success Rate, Relative to Buy/Hold Index, Average Win-Loss Ratio, Profit Factor, Return-On-Account (RoA), ChartAlert® Return Ratio, Risk-Reward Index, Open/ High/ Low/ Close, Volume/ Delivery Volume (DV), % of DV to Volume, etc.
	The Charting Module comes with a Scroll/ AutoScroll Charts feature that allows you to move forward & backward through a Group of charts that have been loaded through a dialog window. Simply click the set Group button to set the Group of charts you want to browse or scroll through, then click on scroll-left to scroll backward, or click on scroll-right to scroll forward. You can also set a timer for each chart and AutoScroll through the Group hands-free.

The Advisory reports and Charts are the focal point of much of what you do in ChartAlert®.

Thus, before you can look at any research & advisory report and chart, you must have data, i.e. Price and Volume Data. This data includes Open/ High/ Low/ Close/ Volume/ Deliveries/ Open Interest information of stocks/ derivatives for a trading day.

The in-built data downloader, viz. WebUpdate, collects end-of-day and snapshot data (real-time at 11:15AM & 2:15PM) in a custom-defined format with 1-click from our website and updates it into the software.

Alternatively, data can also be downloaded manually from our website (using a web browser) and updated into the software using the ManualUpdate option.

The downloaded data is stored locally on your hard drive, and is made available in 2 formats:

data processed for potentially profitable trading and investing opportunities and presented in the form of technical analysis investment research & advisory reports
data presented in an as-is (value-added) format and referred to as market information & prospecting reports
data presented in a graphical format as charts

Once the data has been downloaded and stored on your local hard drive, all technical analysis investment research & advisory reports, market information & prospecting reports, and charts also get archived on your PC -- you could then retrieve these back issues any time for all your needs!
