The Description . . .
A technical indicator called "News Marker" can be added to chart windows. This indicator examines the news items on file for the charted instrument and displays a visual marker in the chart window for each bar that has an associated news story. The selection of marker and marker color is similar to the scan technical indicator for marking scan signals. When a news marker appears in the chart, point the mouse pointer at the marker and the headline of the news items appears in the message area of the main toolbar. Right click on the marker to access the settings for the news markers. The settings dialog has a button to access a news browser for the charted instrument.
