I've had a chance to try and see what's wrong. The drawing is only copied one way - I think from master (as in where if it was drawn on this chart) to the daughter chart. This becomes of no use if you are using an arrangement of charts and do not want to try and tally up which is the master, which is inverted, etc etc. I think one flaw maybe because this fix was only attributed to 'invert prices' which one can access via the "Chart Settings" menu by pressing F5. Inverting gives completely different values for the chart, and so if replicating, inverting and non-inverting etc, this can get messier than: Just using Chart Study - "Multiply Bars by -1" This gives a very clean output, where the axis and chart is just flipped vertically. Prices can also sync up quickly in the user's brain when referring to "-0.8000" is simply "0.8000" on the real chart. Using the simpler checkbox for 'Inverting prices', or even the study along the lines of "Divide Charts by 1", "0.8000" would be "1.2500". So I wonder if the implementation was applied to the "Multiply Bars by -1" study, the drawings would copy between charts, inverted or not, (using the *-1 study as inversion definition here to clarify), with minimal work from yourselves. This would then finally replicate the current functionality of "Chart Copy Drawings", which does not discriminate when drawing/editing drawings on ANY of the defined charts. Sorry for the extra hassle but this will reduce the anxiety for traders who wish to invert charts at will whilst still seeing the same objects as original charts |
