Notes
- After changing chart type, call
chart saveLayout --name agent-layout to persist the change.
- Recommended Default: Standard Solid Candlesticks (
candle) on Daily (1D) or 4h timeframe provides the cleanest visual baseline for multi-EMA ribbons and horizontal DCF/tier badges.
- Heikin Ashi (
heikin-ashi): Smooths price action and is useful for trend-following sweeps to evaluate EMA slope alignment.
- Volume Footprint (
volume-candle): Best suited for dedicated intraday order flow / bid-ask microstructure analysis.
- Renko / Kagi: Filter out noise and focus purely on price breakout thresholds, removing the time dimension.
- Full Reference: For in-depth comparison of all chart styles, indicator readability, and CDP automation notes, see chart-types-reference.md.
