Sorry for venting my frustration. I use the CTV a lot and the issue has an effect on my trading. I missed profits in one of my trades because of this. I always position the CTV window to the upper left most part of the chart so it doesn't block the stock chart. After buying a stock, I maximized the stock chart to see intraday support/resistance levels. When I un-maximized the chart back to its regular size in the chartbook and clicked on a price bar to see the high/low price, the CTV window was repositioned and was covering the price bar. I was trying to move the CTV window out of the way but in doing so I didn't realize that I clicked on the target line of my existing position so that when I released the mouse, the target line was moved below the current price and my current trade was immediately closed for a small profit. I was shocked that my trade was closed and didn't understand why my trade was closed. After recalling what I did, I realized that I may have accidentally clicked on the target line and dragged it instead of the CTV window that I wanted to move away. Price went up to my target so I missed the big profit. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2015-09-10 04:21:32
