Hi Support Team,
is there a way for me to set a couple of settings as default settings when I open a chart. For example, I want to have region dividing lines and my favorite chart type is candlestick.
Thanks

You would need to use a chart that is already setup the way you want and then duplicate it and update the symbol. Or you can create a "Template" chart that you use for this purpose. Refer to the following:

Hi John, thank for your reply
Could you please help me with one more question.

Is there a study that can tell if the highest price or lowest price for a closed bar is reached first?

I can possibly write an ASCIL function looking into Time and Sale records to know but it's complicated and slow.
Thank you

There is not a study that does this and we can not think of a way to do it using existing studies, as there is not a way to capture the intrabar information. It is really something you would have to create a custom study for.

You can only tell this through a lower timeframe per bar chart:

You can then reference that other chart:
