For those of you who relied on the small red and green icons in the classic footprint which denoted bars which started as up or down (in the reversal periodicities), here are two options to implement something akin to this in the new footprint charts.

The first option, pictured below, makes use of the Color Marker indicator and an RTL custom indicator-

The chart definition is available from Charthub.com at this link.

For those of you not on one of the Pro editions of MarketDelta, I have a nice workaround. What I did was to add a second pane with the SAME instrument and periodicity as the primary pane, but using the PnF style. Then I just squeezed the pane down very narrow, and the effect is not unlike the custom markers -

Please note: if you change the periodicty of the primary pane, you also need to change the periodicity of the secondary pane. If you prefer the “markers” on the top, just drag the pane up. Here is the chart definition link.

Please let me know if any of you trying to migrate to the new footprint are having difficulty with replacing or finding functionality from the classic footprint. I’ll try and come up with a solution for you.
