TPO chart with chart study setting for
Singles Extension Line (SG31)
set to
Visible, Solid, Size 2, Vale Label: Left, Below
and Study Settings
Extend Singles: Until Future Intersection
Extend Singles as Area: Yes

produces inconsistent placing of the value label. Sometimes the value label is at the top of the area, sometimes at the bottom (see attached screenshot).

I would expect this to always be placed below the area, consistent with the setting.


I would also suggest an enhancement:
When Extend as Area = Yes, optionally have labels placed above AND below the area, marking the high and low value of the area.

I also want to point out another issue:

When singles are "extended until future intersection", and the future intersection is staged over several profile time periods, it appears that the singles get erased for the part that is already intersected - at least while part of the singles are not yet intersected (see attached screenshot).

Maybe today's session will take out the singles completely, and we will then see if they reappear.

But IMHO what we currently see is not what should be expected. I would expect the singles area cut off in steps.

update:

as the singles have been taken out, only the "last" part of the singles remains visible.
The parts of the singles area that have been taken out in prior periods are deleted.
This is not good, as it distorts the significance of the singles area - very prominently shown in the screenshot.

Regarding this, this is by design:

as the singles have been taken out, only the "last" part of the singles remains visible.
The parts of the singles area that have been taken out in prior periods are deleted.
