# SOURCE MARKER \[1-9]

{% hint style="success" %}
**Association**

**SOURCE MARKER** is a label for the data source.
{% endhint %}

On the *TradingView* platform, there is a limitation that makes it difficult to visually distinguish identical indicators with different settings on the same chart, as they all appear identical when selecting a data source. 

We are waiting for a solution to this problem from the *TradingView* team in the upcoming updates. 

Currently, the problem is solved using the **SOURCE MARKER** module, which serves as an intermediate chain for transferring data from one indicator to another. There are nine **SOURCE MARKER** modules available in the system, each with a unique numerical index from **1 to 9**, allowing traders to efficiently organize work with multiple indicators on a single chart.

The **SOURCE MARKER** module has **one output**, which duplicates the same value it receives as input.

### Here is an example:

#### *Problem Description*

On the chart, there are 3 **CONDITION MANAGER** indicators that perform different functions and are used for different signals in the strategy: *Buy/Take-Profit/Stop-Loss*. When selecting a signal in the strategy, it is difficult to determine which one is for what purpose.

#### ***Problem solving***

First, you need to configure one **CONDITION MANAGER** and mark it as "**SOURCE MAKER - 1**", then do the same with another **CONDITION MANAGER** and mark it as "**SOURCE MAKER - 2**" (and so on).

Now in the data source tree, we see our numbered **SOURCE MAKER** and there is no longer any confusion with the choice.
