Projects consist of a set of indicators, trendlines, captions and default settings. They do not contain data for specific securities. All data is stored in a central folder so that you can access securities from any open project.

  Advantages

The primary purpose of projects is separate daily, weekly and monthly views, each with their own default view and indicator settings.

Projects also enable you to create:

• More than one trading system;
• Separate indicator studies; and
• Studies specific to a key index or security (see My Favorites below).

And pre-set files [in square brackets] save time setting up [Multiple Moving Averages] and other complex indicators.

  Default Project

Incredible Charts always opens with the Default project file. We suggest that you use this for your most popular settings.

  Time Frames

I use the Default project for my short time frame and others for longer periods:

  My Favorites

Apart from separate time frames, I use several specialized projects:

  Project Defaults [F6]

Use the F6 shortcut key or View >> Project Defaults to set default views for each project and make browsing easier.

• Default Security -- only set this if you want the project to display the same security each time it opens
  (examples: d_gold in my Gold & Oil project, and tnx_in in the Yields project);
• Time Period;
• Chart Interval (i.e. Daily, Weekly or Monthly bars; Equivolume; or Point & Figure settings);
• Price Scale: log or normal;
• Chart Type: OHLC, Candlesticks or Closing Price.
