Firstly kudos to an amazing development team. I am struggling to have a working Current Price Line study on my graph when I right-click the Y-axis and change the scale type from Automatic to Independent. The study continues to want to not follow the 'Last' data I.e. current price, and instead fixates at the top of the screen, despite many efforts to fiddle with it's settings. |

This does make sense. If you set the main price graph Scale Range to Independent no other studies put in Chart Region 1 will ever match with it.

Even though the input data for the current price line study is the 'last price'. Would this not override chart regions if seting 1 is given?

We are not understanding the question.

Look if the independent scale setting is chosen, then the current price line study sends the horizontal line to the top of the chart. Which is not current price. If automatic, constant range or constant range autocenter is chose, then the current price line study works fine. |

What is described in post #5 is correct. This cannot change.

Well this would be fine if it not for automatic, constant range or constant range autocenter settings causing the whole chart to stuff up if the user just wants to scroll back. Try it for yourselves. 3 out of 4 Y-axis settings do not allow the user to scroll back without the chart compressing itself in one way or another, then the other remaining setting doesn't allow current price line studies to work. This is a big headache for users. |

In the case of automatic scaling this does not make any sense. In the case of Constant Range scaling that functions as designed and you may have to make adjustments to the scale range as you scroll back, in which case do not use Constant Range scaling if this is a problem

We do not understand this. This does not make any sense. Added are 3 screenshots to display the problem As you can see only the independent scale allows a user to scroll back a mere few days without the chart screwing up. For this reason, the following point is also made redundant: In the case of automatic scaling this does not make any sense. In the case of Constant Range scaling that functions as designed and you may have to make adjustments to the scale range as you scroll back, in which case do not use Constant Range scaling if this is a problem

The problem is the Current Price Line study needs to have its Scale Range Type set to "Same as Region". This will solve the problem. Use an Automatic scale for the main price graph.
