Hello,

I am experiencing numerous issues with the platform. I encounter display glitches, unresponsive windows, price discrepancies between the data and the chart candles, and occasional screen freezing. My software is up to date; I am running the 64-bit version (2956). I use only a single chartbook and a single asset. I'm using Interactive Brokers with Denali. It is not an internet connection issue. Sometimes it works fine for several days, but then problems arise. Right now, I am facing issues almost every day, and I can no longer trade under these conditions right now. It's very problematic. Any assistance is welcome.

Attached is an example of studies settings.. which is totally empty. Indicators have disappeared.

Thank you.

Regarding the attachment showing the studies window, we do not think we have ever seen that before but that would be an operating system level problem. To solve that, you will need to restart your computer. Or sign out of the Windows account and sign back in. Although we are quite familiar with problems like that, but we do not think we have seen anything quite like that but maybe.

In general, it is certainly an operating system level problem. This is one reason out of many we are moving away from these Microsoft dialog windows . That is an old Microsoft dialog type window. These are the new windows that are replacing it:
Settings Windows Interface: New Chart Settings Window

And for the other issues , refer to:
