Analysis Tile
Overview
The Analysis Tile is a dynamic label system which takes a true/false Scripting Formula and provides a quick display on the chart itself (green when the condition is true, red for false).
In the example below, the tiles are giving results based on the following formulas:
Vol > 20MA?
VOL() > MA(VOL(), BARS=20)
13EMA Slope Up?
MA(BARS=13, STYLE=Exponential, CALC=Close) IsUp
To add the tool to your chart, select the tool from the Line Studies tool group, and left-click where on the chart you wish to place the tool. Optuma will then draw the tool using the default settings.

Apply Settings to All: When multiple Analysis Tile tools have been applied to a chart, page or workbook, this action can be used to apply the settings of the one selected to other instances of the tool.
