Is there a way to find the actual value of an indicator?  I want get the value for the upper and lower bollenger bands on the S&P 500.  If I display the value using the crosshairs I just get 1.3K and 1.1K.  I need the actual numbers.  Freestockcharts.com also displays this way.  This also applies to other indicator values.

Also, when I tried exporting the bollinger band values from stockfinder, I don't get any values even though the box is checked.

I don't know of a way to change the number formatting.  But if you click on the chart and place the crosshair right on the upper or lower band the full value is displayed on the scale.

An alternative would be to click on the Bollinger Band and select Add Column to WatchList. You could then right-click on the WatchList Column Header and select Edit to uncheck Abbreviate Large Values and set the Decimal Places setting as desired. You would have to actually switch to symbol containing the SP-500 symbol such as the US Indexes WatchList to see the values.
