Hi,

Sure. Go into "Data Series" and set the colors of all the components of the price bar to "Transparent." See below.

Before. Price with 2 indicators:




Now change the colors of the price bars:




Price now gone, indicators still there:





Bob.

Hi Bob,
Actually I'm looking to see the indicator in the lower section only of the chart.

Thanks,
Rob

OK, but here's an easier way:

Right-click on the lower indicator's value scale, over where the values are shown. Select "Maximize":





Boom:



This is simpler, and you can go back to showing both if you want by just right-clicking in the margin scale again and selecting "Restore".

Bob.
