Coming from another charting tool?
Many keys and names in SuperX Charts are the ones other charting tools use. This page maps one to the other.
The same keys
These keys do the same thing in both tools.
| Other tools | SuperX Charts | Key |
|---|---|---|
| Trend Line | Trend line | Alt+T |
| Horizontal Line | Horizontal line | Alt+H |
| Horizontal Ray | Horizontal ray | Alt+J |
| Vertical Line | Vertical line | Alt+V |
| Fib Retracement | Fibonacci retracement | Alt+F |
| Hide all drawings | Hide all drawings | Ctrl+Alt+H |
| Quick search | Command palette | Ctrl+K |
| Undo | Undo | Ctrl+Z |
| Redo | Redo | Ctrl+Y |
| Remove the selected drawing | Remove the selected drawing | Del |
| Cancel the drawing tool | Cancel the tool | Esc |
Here too, a symbol typed on the chart opens the symbol search, and a number opens the interval box.
Where each feature is
A feature of another charting tool, and its place in SuperX Charts. Ctrl+K, or Find a tool or command… in the ⋯ menu, finds any of them by name.

What works differently
- Some single letters are shortcuts here: F, L, T, E, I, C, S, R, X, A, W and Y. For a symbol that begins with one of them, type the whole word, or press / first.
- There are no accounts. Drawings, alerts and layouts are on your device. Your work as one file moves them.
- Formulas have a small language of their own. Pine scripts do not run here.
- The tool has no trading buttons and links to no broker. Practice uses paper trades only.
- The chart knows the PSX’s own rules: price limits, sessions, the Friday break, corporate actions and halts.
Simple and Pro
SuperX Charts has two modes. Pro is on for everyone: all intervals and chart types, 90 indicators, 72 drawing tools, the panels and the data layers.
Simple is the calm view: one chart, five ranges, candles or a line, four indicator presets, the events and Share.
- Press the Simple | Pro switch in the top bar to choose the mode. This device keeps your choice.
- On a phone, the switch is the first row of the ⋯ menu.
- The tools never need full screen. Full screen, or F, only changes the window.
- Your drawings stay on the chart when you choose Simple.
