Post From: Need indicator of auto-trade setting for scalping w/ command key enable/disable

Other than Trade Window positions showing, as in http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ChartTrading.html , I can't find any other indictor that would show Auto Trade enabled.

In scalping with auto+manual trading, it's crucial to be able to rapidly disable and enable auto-trade, which I do by command key.
To do that, I must constantly know whether auto is already on or off (without going looking in menu).

When doing manual over-ride of enabled-auto trade, it's hard to keep up with which trades are auto, whether another auto exit or entry is possible or desired-- if you aren't sure if it is on.
Going into the Trade menu to be sure-- is distracting.

A little dot, or an "A" for auto enabled, preferably flashing 1/second up by the right end of the tool bar would sure be helpful.
This would make S.C even better.
