Question

What is the Watermark Indicator?
   

Answer

The Watermark Indicator adds a watermark to the chart background. It can be used to identify the user, his or her organization, or the ticker symbol of the primary instrument in the chart. The watermark appears as semi transparent text overlaying the chart background. The indicator has setups that include: the watermark text to be displayed, the position of the watermark, the font and size of the watermark text, and the opacity of the watermark. Opacity settings of low, medium and high are available. Increasing opacity makes the watermark appear darker.

On the Mac OS X platform, the opacity settings do not function due to platform differences. Using the custom color option, Mac users can specify various custom colors, shades of gray for example, to control the shade of the watermark
