Action: Charts > Associated Watchlist > Set Charts to Symbols

Please consider two options:

1. an option to not populate any open DOMs with symbols from this action. And to only open regular charts with this action with the symbols in the list.
2. an option to apply the action to Trading DOMs. Viz, Charts > Associated Watchlist > Set DOMS to Symbols

Currently, if DOMs and charts co-exist in one chartbook, it is very hard to use Set Charts to Symbols and get the result you want.

I tried to solve this by having a chartbook for DOMs and a chart book for charts open at the same time. Both chartbooks display the same watchlist. However, it is not possible to detach chartbooks, therefore both chartbooks are not visible at the same time*. It is indeed possible to run a separate instance of SC, one for DOMS and one for charts, but that has other drawbacks, including the fact that I'll probably already have to run two instances, one for trading, one for watchlists and monitoring*

It is not possible to use the solution of Trade > Trading Chart DOM On in the situation where a trader has many small charts in a mosaic, which does not suit the DOM layout.

*Detachable chartbooks would go a long to working around this issue.
