For example, you can define a keystroke to display a new chart, or you can make it display a chart, enter an instrument, split the chart, and display an RSI. is no mere You can create such compound actions by separating commands and symbols with semi-colons, which stand for the Enter key. For example,
cht_1;CMCSK;.candle;.split;.rsi
