Hi

I want to change the shape of the last price shown in the right hand side column because all of them are shaped rectangular and this causes confusion when there are many value labels on the same column.

This is not supported.

However, you can change the color of it:

That color settings I know.
But don't you think that it's quite confusing if there are other multiple labels and that too near the price marker. Everything looks the same and confusing.

I believe this is a piece of cake for you to incorporate, which will really help traders like me who work on multiple levels which are sometimes overlapping near the last trading price.

Requesting it on behalf of many users I know personally as they (including me) compare it with leading charting platforms like Ninjatrader and MarketDelta where the price marker looks different (arrow type) than the price labels!

By the way what purpose does it solve for price marker to look like the price labels on right side column. Why it can be of other geometrical form? Please explain!

I sincerely believe this is not a superfluous request but a very legitimate one!

Thanks!

Any progress on this. As discussed with others in trading community, I believe by now, many would have requested you about incorporating this change.

I respect the technical/backend support of SC and I know that they do incorporate genuine changes and this request by me is pretty much a feature which will help everyone to differentiate the price marker with other price labels on RHS column.

Thanks!

Regarding progress, refer to:
Notice: Suggestions (Currently not accepting)

Allow about 12 months. Yes we are that far behind.

And if you really want to know the truth, 12 months is too early of an estimate.

Please do not say anything further.

Just a suggestion but you could use the Price Line study and move the label off the Value Column to the left. If you use a locked blank area to the right of your candles, this will display very nicely.

What we added is a new color setting to Global Settings >> Graphics Settings to outline the last trade price box:
Last Trade Price Box Outline. It has both a color setting and an Enable option.

We can also add a width.

@SierraChartEngineering

If possible, in addition to the width which you have mentioned, please add the arrow shaped label pointing on the left side of the price column. This is a standard label shape across all the platforms. This would differentiate price label amongst many other value labels on the right side column.

We can add the width near-term.
