Post From: show fills and trade lines format

PLEASE provide capability of enable "show fills" as small triangles (pointing down for short and pointing up for long fills at price on the price bar or candle). These to be connected between fills by thin lines.

The current show fill format is a huge clunky box with text in it which just totally screws up a chart and does not clearly show entries and exits at all so is not a good tool for post market trade analysis. Trying to optimize risk placement with it the way it is, just an exercise in futility. I don't need to see a box with the actual text fill in it. I need small triangles pointing up or down on the actual candle or price bar showing the exact entry price graphically. Works SO MUCH BETTER.

Example: I am entering long on NQ. First entry @ 13452.50, 2nd entry @ vwap 13454, 3rd entry 13455. I only add on confirming price action directionally, never add without positive reinforcement on price movement. Hit the exit button @ 13511.25, now I have three neat little triangles at my entries, and one down pointing triangle at my exit, connected with thin lines. Simple, elegant, just a huge aid to seeing what I did and when I did it graphically. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ADD THIS TO SIERRA CHARTS!!! My trading has improved 100% just by being able to see the actual fills on the candles in real time as I trade with entries and exits clearly shown non-intrusively formatted like this.

I cannot upload a thumbnail image to display the graphic impact this has for doing after-market trade analysis. I have many saved files from my TopStep Tradovate charts which are just absolutely incredible for doing PM analysis. The graphics capabilities of SC are far superior but this one thing is so darned important that it really must be part of Sierra Charts. I cannot emphasise enough how super important this capability is! My trading has improved hugely just from being able to see exactly where my entries and exits were right on the price bars without hiding chunks of chart with those big text boxes. When using multiple trade entries, it just makes a mess on the chart. Useless. I wish I could upload a thumbnail image to display this from Tradovate.
