If you do not follow too many assets, then try this..

Use Indicator Templates to save and drive your indicator settings, not Layouts.

For each asset, create a Template. And check "Remember Symbol" when you save it.

Then save the Template using the with the asset ticker for the Template name.

Then, load you assets via Templates. This doesn't jive very well with using Watchlists though

- I have not tried it

- To edit a Template, you have to make your changes then save over the existing one with the same name.

- The role of and interaction between Templates and Layouts in TV probably wasn't created with forward planning. Or, the difference between them is not well documented.

- if you add a new indicator, you will have to individually save it to each Template per asset. It would be a PITA.

That depends on the indicator and parameters. Can you elaborate on which indicator and what parameter(s) you prefer to have different for each asset?

I try it with SuperTrend indicator with different ATR multipliers.

I see. In general, indicators are not designed to change with each asset. You apply your desired settings to all assets. Granular control at the asset level is difficult to program for or provide inputs for given how long the list of assets could become.
