Post From: Crosshair always on on dom

The reason why you are always seeing the crosshairs in the DOM, no matter what is selected in another window is due to the fact that you have the setting for "Tools >> Tool Settings >> Chart Values >> Always On When Chart Values Tool Selected" set to "Yes". Refer to the following:
Chart Drawing Tools: Always On When Chart Values Tool Selected (Tool Settings >> Chart Values >> Chart Values)

As we noted previously, the Trading DOM is special and does not support all of the same tools. Therefore, when another chart is set to "Hand", the Trading DOM is still in "Chart Values/Crosshairs" mode. Therefore, the crosshairs are still being displayed due to the setting noted above.

There is no particular "workaround" for this. You would have to determine which is more important, or less annoying, to always have the crosshairs showing in the Trading DOM, or to not have the crosshairs always showing when in Crosshair mode.
