How do I get these colored triangles that mark the opened and closed trades to show on my charts? http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=160100090773.png Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-09-25 02:32:26

Look at the settings in Global Settings | Chart Trade Settings and follow the instructions here. Chart Trading and the Chart DOM: Displaying Order Fills on the Chart

Thanks for the links, but they really don't deal with my issue. My problem is the "Fill Marker Size" is displaying as a 'dot' instead of as an 'arrow'. http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1601055076915.png The link below provides instructions how to change its colors but not how to change its shape or size. I am trying to get it to display as an arrow but can't find instructions with any of the available support documents. Global Trade Settings Windows: Fill Marker Size (Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings >> Order Fills >> Order Fills)

The link you reference above is exactly where you change the size of the Order Fills marker: Global Trade Settings Windows: Fill Marker Size (Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings >> Order Fills >> Order Fills) You may be confusing some of the nomenclature that we have in different places. The Fills Marker is always a triangle. It is not an actual arrow, with a line and a head. The triangle that is drawn will point either to the left or right to note the opening or closing of a position. You can see this in the image in this section: Chart Trading and the Chart DOM: Displaying Order Fills on the Chart For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

Thanks John The issue has been solved by down loading the latest version. On the screenshot I posted (post#5) my "Fill Markers" were just dots with the appropriate color connecting lines, no Triangles. When I went to; Global Settings>>Chart Trade Settings>>Order Fills>>Fill Marker Size - the 'dot' did not change size or become a triangle regardless if I chose small, medium or large from the drop down. With the new version download the Triangles appeared as did the Fill Marker Size - "Pixel Option" Big Thanks to you and User75002 for persisting.
