Studies can be assembled into sets to create study Templates. Once a template is created, an entire set of studies can be applied to any chart, at any time, with just one click. It is possible to switch between different templates and to apply several templates at once. Study templates can include indicators as well as signals.
 
Templates can be Created, Applied, Renamed, and Deleted, set to be Auto-Applied to all new charts, as well as Exported to or Imported from a file.
