In Blocks, I have used the Clone option to create several charts, but cannot figure out how to put different symbols into each chart. Can you help me with this? Thank you.

Please try the following in the cloned Chart:

Right-click in the upper Toolbar (the Add Study and Time Frame Picker are located here in the Personal Chartist Workspace) and select Add Item | Symbol Picker.

Left-click on the Symbol Picker and enter a symbol.

Right-click on the Symbol Picker and select Properties.

Remember the name of the Symbol Picker (you may change it if desired).

Right-click on the Tab or Title Bar for the cloned chart and select Patch Panel | Main Symbol.

Left-click and drag on the input to the Symbol Arrow and select Link From Another Tool | (the new Symbol Picker).

You could also Clone the Watchlist Tool and use a different Watchlist for each chart if desired (by linking the Main Symbol to the desired Watchlist).

Follow up to response from Bruce_L- Regarding your answer on how to create several charts for different symbols, I was not able to figure out the last step in your instructions. What do I left click on to drag and then select link? Thanks.

There will be a green Block shaped like an arrow called Symbol.

It will have only one input.

This input will itself be shaped like an arrow pointed to the green Block shaped like an arrow.

This is the input on which you wish to left-click and drag.

(A blue Block shaped like a square called Watch List 1 Selected will probably be going into this input.)

You aren't dragging anything to the input box.

You are putting the mouse on the input, pressing the left-mouse button, dragging for a short distance and letting up on the left-mouse button.

This will bring up a menu where you can select Link From Another Tool and then choose the new Symbol Picker.
