Hello,

When I open my chartbook, the trade window opens on another monitor and I cannot move it or resize it. It is stuck at the top of the screen.

That is a wonderful Microsoft Windows feature.

One option is to select "Chart >> Reset Child Windows". This should move the Trade Window to a location where you can access it and move it where you want.

Alternatively, you can do an Internet search using terms like the following "move window with title bar off screen". You will find the information for how to move it in the results.

Go through the instructions here:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Opening Trade Window for Chart or Trade DOM

You definitely need to reset the child windows.
