In addition to price change ($), I would like to see price change (%). DayTrader

For every bar we can see in MetaStock open, high, low, close price and price change in dolars. What is missing is price change in percentage. It makes job easier for me, otherwise I have to keep calculator nearby and to calculate by myself how much in percentage the stock went up or down today. Is that make sense to you? For me if I see that today Lucent (LU) changed +0.34$ means nothing unless I calculate that it is 13.18%.

There is a built-in indicator named "Price ROC", ROC is rate of change. This can be calculated in points or percent.

Instead adding Price ROC indicator to the chart, why we can not simply have price change in percentage in main window title bar, or in data window for example?
