Using the Gallery ViewWhat Is The Gallery View?The Gallery View is a one-page, four-chart summary of the short, medium, and long-term view for any stock, index or mutual fund in our database. It only requires you to enter a ticker, and the charts are automatically generated with pre-determined durations and overlays. The four charts are as follows:
Short-Term: An Intraday chart shows recent market action and the major moving averages. Why use the gallery view?When you want a quick idea of how a security has performed either today or over the past two years, the gallery view is the perfect tool. This view is great for in-depth analysis of a single ticker symbol's performance and potential for all types of traders. It is easy to read, and offers different levels of analysis with important indicators to help to determine significant price movements. How much control do I have in the gallery view?All chart settings in the gallery view are pre-determined and work great for most users. The only input that factors into the creation of the gallery page is the ticker symbol. However, all charts in the gallery view can be viewed on their own by clicking on the graphic. Doing so plots the graph with its own set of tools, either using the SharpCharts Workbench or the P&F Chart Workbench. From here you can edit the chart as you please. Creating A Gallery
The first step in creating a gallery is to know the ticker symbol of the stock or index you are interested in. Each stock has a unique symbol, often recognizable by the company name (eg. Microsoft is "msft"). Others are not so obvious, but any active stock can be found in our symbol catalog which can always be accessed by clicking on the link in the top right corner.

Point and Figure charts are great for spotting trends, support/resistance levels, and buy/sell signals. It is always a good idea to include a point and figure chart in your analysis. These charts include a stock bar showing the company name, ticker symbol, the exchange it's traded on, the date, and open/high/low/close/volume/price change statistics. It also shows the price objective for the chart, the style and reversal value, along with any recognized P&F Pattern. Trend lines are also drawn in, along with a volume histogram below the chart. Click on the chart to view and modify it as a regular P&F Chart. (For more information on working with P&F Charts, read our Point and Figure Chart help page). Action Bar
