Post From: Making orders visible in the chart while confirm pop-up is being displayed

Unless I have missed something in the extensive documentation, I believe that there is no way to accomplish the following. When you click in the chart to submit an order, an optional confirmation pop-up is displayed, wonderful. At this point however, the orders are not yet visible in the chart. As a result I loose time checking the textual order prices for all my attached orders as listed in the pop-up, to figure out what the order levels in the chart will look like once I click OK, and verify that they are correct. It is also an error-prone activity. It would be nice if the orders that are about to be submitted are already visible in the chart when the confirm box pops up, perhaps as dashed lines or so. Another way would be to put the orders in the chart ahead of time (a setup if often already building up for some time, just waiting for the final trigger), then transmit then at a later moment with a mouse click once all conditions have been fulfilled. Interactive brokers charts support this style, and it is very convenient (instead of click and shoot at the last moment). Thank you in advance for your answer.
