Hello,
I noticed that the stochastics reading was for the corresponding %D value on the chart. I would like to see the %K value instead. How do I go about making a change to the settings so that I see this ?
Thanks.

Where exactly are you seeing the %D values? The chart scale (1-100) would apply to both %D and %K lines.

Hello Doug,
I am referring to the stochastics readings that I see (when the Pointer option under Tools is clicked) on the upper left corner of the chart. For example, when the reading is
'Stochastics 9,3,3 60.67, the 60.67 reading corresponds to the %D value. I would like to see the %K value instead. Hope this is clear.

Thanks.

Change your stochastics setting to 9,3,1 then add a 3-bar moving average to the stochastics. You will end up with the same indicator but you will read the %K in the pointer mode.

BTW, you don't have to go to TOOLS to activate the pointer. You can toggle the pointer with the period (full stop) key.
