Hello , I am new to the SC platform , but have spent a good deal
of time experimenting with it and reading the documentation .
Below are some questions / problems that I could not resolve on my own.
Thanks.


Question 1 )
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

With 'Trade' -> 'Chart Trade Mode On' , I can right click on
the chart , select a trade action , say 'Sell Limit' , and
a 'Sell Limit' paired with a 'Stop'order above and a
limit order below will appear on the chart and on the DOM .

However , the 'Use Attached Orders' checkbox on the
Trade DOM is unchecked .

In addition , this particular bracket configuration is
not a configuration that I have saved with my trade DOM.

When I trade from the DOM with the 'Chart Trade Mode On' ,
everything works as designed , this problem only occurs when
trading from the chart.

Am I missing configurtion of some sort .





Question 2 )
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am using the 'Current Price Line' study.

When I use the scrollbar to scroll to the left in the chart ,
the price box in the price boarder rolls up and down as it
tracks the close price of the most right visible candle in the chart.

The 'Current Price Line' , however , does not track the
the close price of the most right visible candle in the
chart as I would have expected .

The 'Current Price Line' study appears to only be
concerned with the last price traded and doesn't
move from that price .

Are there any configuration changes I can make or
is there another study that allows for a horizontal
line to track the close of the most right visible candle
in the chart in unison with the price box ?

1. You must be looking at the wrong Trade Window. Refer to:

2. There is no study that does this, and inherently it is difficult for a study to do this. It would not work well.
