Two charts for same symbol with different studies

[jspot99]

How does one setup two charts for the same symbol different timeframe and studies, and have both charts linked to the watchlist?

Chart 1: Symbol AAA, 1 minute, has some studies, link group red.

Chart 2: Same symbol AAA, 5 minute, different studies, link group red.

When I click a symbol in the watchlist, both charts update to the same new symbol - this works.

But if I change the studies on chart 2, then they also change on chart 1. I want the studies to be different.

Tried using chart templates, but couldn't get it to work. This should be simple, but can't figure this out. Any help appreciated!

saving different different studies is called Analysis, not templates. It's the little open folder looking icon next to the camera on the toolbar.

One method I use (and recommend) is to set the Study visibilities to the appropriate TF you want.

See my actual trading layout in the attached file. Notice how the Charts are linked Red and all in different TF's. The Horizontal Lines, the Channels and Studies are different for each. Even the Guides in the Volume Studies are different, all based on Visibility settings.

Thanks for the replies!

I was looking to have several pre-saved groups of studies, which are symbol independent (so not Analyses) that I could quickly apply (via hotkey and therefore a template) to a single chart which is color-linked to other charts, but without overriding the studies on the other color-linked charts.

I also contacted MotiveWave support, and here is their response (in red w/ 2 screenshots). It worked very well. I also started with a clean setup, to ensure that no pre-existing settings were incorrect.

==============

> To ensure that the studies carry over as you change symbols in the watchlist, then make sure that Lock Studies is selected under the View menu.
> To ensure that the time frame is tied to the template then select Bar Size when saving your template. This will save the Bar Size from the current chart to the template settings.




> To avoid the loading of [another template's studies] into the chart, unselect the Link Templates option from the Configure > Preferences > Templates menu.

Each of the Studies shown in my chart have sets up the same way but found in different places. The setup you're looking for is called a "Tag."

For Settlement: Preferences > Chart > Indicators
For the VWAP Study: General > Indicator > Click on the Pencil
For Pivot Points, see the attached pics

Cheers!
