I've spent hours in both Global Settings > Graphic Settings and the Chart/DOM specific Graphic Settings, but for the life of me I cannot find these working order markers that are begging for a change of color (see image).

Please advise.
Thank you.

Chart Trading Orders about half way down on Global Graphic Settings.

This was most helpful. I had already changed the Chart Trading Orders colors in Global Graphic Settings, but not in each Chart Graphic Settings (my charts have "use Global Graphics Settings instead" disabled) . Now that I've changed the Chart Graphic Settings and have a single chart the way I like it, how to I establish this individual chart's graphic settings as my Global Graphic Settings?

I'm almost there! Thank you!

If you do not use the Global Graphics settings for your chart, then you will want to use the chart that you have setup as your "Template" and duplicate that chart to create new charts with the same color settings. Refer to the following:
Using Chart Templates: Duplicating Charts / Template Charts

Otherwise, you would need to change the "Graphics Settings - Global" to match what you have in that one chart and then make sure that other charts are using the Global settings rather than the chart specific ones. Refer to the following:
Graphics Settings: Using Different Color and Graphics Settings for Specific Charts
