        Price Range is a tool that simply helps measure price intervals (up and down movements) on the chart. The Price Range is drawn by two points in order to make up a square. 

        To add Price Range to the chart, click its name or the iconprice_rangeon the Drawings Panel. Specify an initial point (bottom/top) on the chart and then drag a pointer to form a square. Specify the second point to fix the range position

        Note: To cancel drawing, press ESC
