E*TRADE from Morgan Stanley today announced enhanced charting to its Power E*TRADE platform, allowing traders to visualize potential opportunities with precision, and customize views in more ways than ever before.

Enhancements include:

• New technical analysis features catered to active traders. E*TRADE added seven new studies bringing the total study count to over 120, along with six new display types, including advanced Point & Figure and Kagi. The package also includes six new drawings like Fibonacci Retracement.

• Easier to use and customizable tools. Traders can quickly learn the studies available with new built-in definitions and education. They’re now able to efficiently find and save the studies they use with the new Study Library menu and search bar. In addition, drawing tools are seamlessly accessible with a new intuitive menu complete with more design choices—traders can also edit and save drawings for easy reference.

• Enhanced usability to existing key features. New Y-axis settings, like inverse and log scale, allow traders to manipulate charts in new ways and visualize drawings and studies from multiple vantages. Further, traders can seamlessly view events information with an improved layout for earnings, dividends, and splits, and easily set charts to view a specific date range with Range Selector.

“As we face a volatile market, many traders are likely coming to the realization that stocks prices don’t always go up and to the right,” said Chris Larkin, Managing Director of Trading and Investing at E*TRADE from Morgan Stanley. “Amid the uncertainty, traders need to be armed with as many tools as possible to effectively navigate and spot opportunities. With these enhanced capabilities, E*TRADE traders have access to cutting-edge charting solutions that deliver increased insight into market moves ultimately allowing them to deftly plot their trading strategies.”

These charting enhancements follow several new trading tools E*TRADE launched within the last year including expanded social media research analytics, a cutting-edge options tool, Trade Tape, allowing traders to analyze trade activity and view a live scrolling record of options trading activity across all symbols, and a new Level II quotes visualization through the Market Depth tool.
