# StockChartsACP Plug-Ins

Plug-ins extend the functionality of StockChartsACP, allowing you to add specialized indicators and other features to the platform.

We recommend installing the free StockCharts **Advanced Indicator Pack**. This pack features indicators for StockChartsACP that are unavailable elsewhere on the StockCharts site, including Balance of Power, DEMA, and TTM Squeeze. We'll use this indicator pack as an example in the section below on installing free plug-ins.

StockCharts has also partnered with technical analysis experts to bring you many additional plug-ins. Free and paid plug-ins are available, and more are being added constantly. Please see the ACP Plug-Ins page in the StockCharts Marketplace for a complete list of plug-ins currently available and a sneak peek at new plug-ins coming soon.
