Using the Chart

The Strategy Builder has a built-in price chart you can open right on the canvas. It plots the market alongside your strategy’s indicators and marks where your conditions read true, so you can check your logic against real price action without leaving the builder.

Open and close the chart

Click the chart button in the floating toolbar, or press Shift+C. Press Shift+C again, or click the X on the chart, to close it.

The chart opens as a panel on the canvas. Drag its corner to resize it, and move it like any other node to keep it out of the way of your strategy.

What it shows

• Candlesticks for the selected market and timeframe.
• Your indicators, drawn as overlay lines (studies) on the chart. The aggregators and custom metrics your strategy uses appear here so you can see them against price, with markers at the points where a condition reads true.
• Your open orders, drawn as price lines where your account’s resting orders sit.

Trade markers from a backtest are not drawn on this chart. They live on the equity curve inside the Backtest Result node.

You can switch the market and timeframe from the chart’s own controls.

How to use it

The chart is most useful for sanity-checking. After you build a condition, open the chart and confirm the indicator behaves the way you expect on recent price, and that the condition markers land where your logic should act. After a backtest, open the Backtest Result node to see where the simulated trades landed, and use this chart to understand why the conditions read true there. If a condition was met somewhere surprising, the chart usually shows you why.

Next steps

Pair the chart with Backtesting a Strategy to validate logic before you deploy.
