The BEST Chart Colours For Trading With!I often used to struggle with how to find the best chart colours to trade with but I never could quite pick between clear white or clear black. It's an often overlooked topic but when clarity, contrast, sharpness all depend on how well you see patterns, candles or your preferred techniques, it's one of the most crucial. So here's what I found out:
White is a no-go for various reasons. Firstly, it's a very bright and sharp colour that will be the focus of your eye. Secondly, depending on your laptop/PC it can be very bright, leading you to turn down brightness further reducing your vision. It's not great at night either to check the charts for an hour before bed and your screen is blinding.
Black is also a no-go as it's the exact opposite of my last point. It blends in to easily to the background leaving you feeling as if there's not enough brightness when your candles are often a darker colour also. If your laptop/PC monitor is a mid-lower end, it won't have the brightness to really pop out and if it's not an OLED panel you will also find the black isn't true black, but more of a dark grey. Not a good idea...
So this brings me to the holy grail which is: GREYSCALE!
A lot of people don't realise this but 1 in 8 men and 1 in 200 women, a total 5% of the population are colour deficient which means you have a difficulty with certain colours, differentiating certain colours and similar conditions. By setting your background to greyscale, it's a natural base colour everybody can see, it's easy on the eyes and most importantly it provides a certain contrast between the candles and the background that I never quite got with other charts.
By setting your candles to simple black borders/outlines and green/red fill, you get a really nice looking chart! Then you want your indicators and chart objects to be a sharp colour, so it really stands out, like yellow or white.
This is how you get a great looking chart so you can really see what's going on!
