How to see the percentage change of a security?

[futurestrader0000]

How could I see the percentage change of the day for a security? For example, I want to know whether ES is up or down 1% for the session. I tried opening up the data box but it is not giving me the information.

Hello,

The simplest way to do so would be to use the net change indicator. To add this, right click the chart and select 'indicators' and then double click on the 'net change' option to add this to your chart.

Hey, is there a more elegant solution than this? A lot of indicators are using FixedText locations and offer no way to offset the positions. I feel like being able to see the Change of a security on screen is a basic function.

Hello Several,

Thank you for the message.

There are the four location options within the Indicator itself:

• 

Otherwise, you could open a Market Analyzer and add the Net Change Columns as desired along with the instruments you watch and then located it on the screen as desired.

• Go to the Control Center > New > Market Analyzer
• Right-click and add your desired instruments
• Right-click > Columns > Remove, Add, and Edit the columns as desired > Click OK
  • 

Please let us know if we may provide any further assistance.

The problem is there's not really any corner than doesn't interfere with something.
