Hi
Is there a way to see the candle's OHLC values printed at the top of chart(chart header)...of the candle where I'm placing the cursor on(or click on)?
Right now, its showing the values of the current candle.

thanks

You need to use the "Tool Values Window" or the "Compact Tool Values Window" to view this information. Refer to the following:

Thanks, found it and enabled the Compact Tool values window.
However on one of the charts(screenshot attached), only Y & Date/time appears, remaining values dont show up. Not sure whats different about this chart.
Also how do control what shows up up in the Chart header?

thanks

Issue with the displaying values in the compact tools window fixed..had one of the settings accidentally disabled.

Also was able to customize chart header columns.

why not enable these settings by default?
1. Drag with crosshair
2. show values when Hover on price bar and volume bar

It will save traders a lot of time
