The need to find a relationship between the movement of market prices and investors demand has seen the development of indicators and oscillators which use different methods and sometimes complicated mathematical formulas to determine price direction.
EzyChart has a variety of indicators and oscillators which are all accessible from the Indicators menu in the software. The parameters of each indicator are fully configurable by the user.

Technical drawing tools are found in the Drawing Tools tab on the menu. They are applied to your chart and/or indicators by selecting one from the ribbon and then drawing it on your chart. Some of these tools only require the user to click on the chart (i.e. Pivot Point Lines) whilst others need to be clicked and dragged (i.e. Parabolic Curve) to the required end position.
Drawing tools like the Trend Line will be projected off your chart so you can see visually if the trend continues or breaks as time progresses and more bars are added.
EzyChart remembers the position of the drawing tools so you can zoom in or out of your chart without losing the scale.

Q: Does EzyChart require EzyAnalyser to operate?
A: Both programs are designed to work together to analyse the markets. However they can be purchased on their own.
Q: Will EzyChart tell me which shares to buy?
A: No – EzyChart does not recommend buys or sells – this is entirely up to you.
Q: Does EzyChart require data from BodhiGold?
A: No – you can import text files into EzyChart however some of the features will not work with imported data. We recommend BodhiGold as EzyChart was designed to work with this data feed.
- A data subscription to JustData’s BodhiGold data downloading program.
- An analysis program such as EzyAnalyser is not essential to run EzyChart but for serious traders it is invaluable for finding investment opportunities.
- EzyChart V6 is compatible with Windows® 7, XP and Vista operating systems.
- This software is known to work on Macintosh (MAC) computers using Windows emulation software (i.e. VMWare) but it is not supported.
