HI Support


I want to stop the charts 'Trade orders' from moving to the right of the chart when I add more orders to the current trade! Each time I add, the trade orders move closer to the right incrementally.


I scale in alot and soon the orders are overlaying the latest candle on my Numbers bars making it hard to see the current action.


If there no way to stop it happening, is there at least a maximum amount that can be set so that it doesnt cover the last 2/3 candles???


Thanks

We are not understanding this. There is no reason for the Order and Position lines to move when you are adding additional orders. They should not move at all, horizontally, from where they are placed, which is based on the settings in "Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading".

Please get us an image of before and after so we can see what you are referring to. Please follow these instructions to get us the images:

Sorry, I wasnt clear enough!

Here is a video of whats happening, as you might not be able to tell from a static picture!

I have my trade orders and positions set at 50% from the left, as I have another chart on top covering half the chart in question for space. So I cant have them set 100% left or I wont see them.

You can see as I add to the current trade the chart trade positions boxes are moving closer to the right over the latest action/current candles!

Any way to stop this happening??

Thx

We have to add a setting to disable this.

Oh ok, any ideas when this will be done?

And will you be able to update me when it is done? otherwise you'll add a setting and I'll never know!

Thx

There will be new settings, in Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading to control all of this in detail.
