I'm having trouble centering a Study around zero. The values of the study i want to auto scale around zero (zero in the middle of the study range always). But the scale of the study can change depending on plus/minus values in scope.

Is there a way to do this?

You could try using a User Defined scale:

Just a thought.... We often have charts that pre-defining a range just to center the "Zero" on the chart is not reasonable.
As a result I had to code determination of the visible range and setting the range to the larger of the high low to make this work.
This seems to me to perhaps be a common issue.

It would be nice to have this built into the settings similar to the "automatic Zero-Based" setting. Perhaps create a "Automatic Zero-Centered" setting that creates the max range (based on visible chart) with Zero centered in the chart.

This certainly would benefit many of the indexes, market stats , studies etc
