## Subwindow Setup Recommendation[​](#subwindow-setup-recommendation "Direct link to Subwindow Setup Recommendation")

Because AIMS Grant's AO uses a normalized 0.0 to 1.0 vertical scale, it does not require significant vertical screen real estate:

* Drag the subwindow separator downward until the window is approximately 20 to 30 pixels high.
* This leaves maximum chart space for price action while keeping momentum state visible.
