Is it possible to exclude the output values from a given indicator from the Market Snapshot dialog?

Hi bishbashbosh,

No there is no such option.

This would be helpful for me as I have several indicators that encode setups which when matched set a value in the output series above or below the bar in order to display a dot for the user, so that they know the setup has hit on the bar.

Realise that this is a slight hack of the functionality - probably wasn't designed with this scenario in mind. But it would be great to be able to exclude such indicators from market snapshot tho as they are making it noisy. It could be implemented e.g. by an additional boolean property in the Indicator attribute.

If you have any other ideas of how to work around this, do please suggest.. (n.b. tried earlier adding text above/below bar, but when there were a lot of such markings the memory usage of cT appeared to climb alarmingly over time - using dots seems to be much more efficient)
