controlling Last Traded Price displaying on the Scale

Dear Sirs,

I have a few long-term charts (weekly, daily, 4-hourly) where I have important Simple Average numbers or important Profile Numbers displayed on the Scale on the right of the chart.
I would like to NOT display the Current Price on these charts, because it sometimes overlaps and so covers the important Numbers I need to see as price gets close to them.

I have tried formatting the "Last Trade Price Box", but could not achieve my goal. Is there a way somehow "to blank out by formatting" or "to turn off altogether" the Current Price displaying over my important numbers?

Thank you for your help or for considering this suggestion.

"to turn off altogether"

Yes, either menu item below depending on your configuration:

a) 'Global Setting' -> 'Graphics Settings - Global'
or
b) 'Chart' -> 'Graphics Settings - Global'

Then untick 'Enable' for the 'Last Trade Price Box' item (see attached image).

The other option you have is to use the "Label Column" for the display of the study data. Refer to item #7 at this link:
Chart Studies: Subgraphs Tab >> Name and Value Labels

Thank you User813485. You hit the nail exactly on the head. I don't know how I missed this when I was in this Setting.

Thank you John from Sierra, too, although I believe our suggestion pertains only to Studies, but it definitely useful there.

I'm sure people will find this thread useful.
