Thirty-one, and you choose

Daily, weekly, monthly and session. With all of them on the chart is unreadable, so most people settle on six or eight.

With name and price

Every line carries its label. No need to remember what that blue line from three days ago was.

Nothing drawn by hand

They recalculate as the day, week or month turns. A hand-drawn level stays where you left it; these do not.

The day's levels

Previous session high, low, close and midpoint, with the overnight and opening ranges, all labelled.
