Chart Operation

This page explains how to navigate and interact with the chart in Structure Lab, including zooming, panning, and using keyboard/mouse shortcuts.

Chart Operation

Navigating our charts feels similar to TradingView.
Here's what you need to know:

Basic Navigation:

  • Zoom In/Out:
    Primary: Your mouse scroll wheel.
    Secondary: The Data Preview Pane at the bottom of the chart - just drag the edges of the window.

  • Zoom to Area: Using your right mouse button, click and drag a rectangle around the area you want to magnify.

  • Zoom Out / Reset Chart View: Double click on the chart canvas to return to the default view.

  • Pan: Click and drag the chart or hold SHIFT + Mouse Scroll Wheel

Note - Some traders like to zoom in by dragging the X-axis or y-axis on the chart. We don't currently support that method.

Placing Structure Markers:

We'll get into more detail around placing structure markers in the next section.
