Insert Analysis Group

The Insert Analysis Group dialog allows you to insert existing (predefined or custom) analysis groups to a Chart Analysis or RadarScreen window. Inserting an analysis group provides you a shortcut of applying the analysis techniques or strategies you want to group together in one step. For your convenience, predefined analysis groups have been created for you and you have the flexibility of creating your own.

Once an analysis group is applied to your Chart Analysis or RadarScreen window, you can build from there by inserting additional analysis techniques or strategies you want to also include in the window. You have the flexibility to save the analysis techniques/strategies in one group; therefore, creating a new analysis group or overwriting an existing one. For more information on how to do this, see Save Analysis Group.

When inserting an analysis group to the window, you can either replace all existing analysis techniques/strategies that is currently applied to the window or you can apply an analysis group in addition to any existing analysis techniques and/or strategies.

Once you've applied your analysis group to the window, you have the flexibility of customizing and formatting the analysis techniques/strategies to your preference.
