Chart Trading Questions

Hi,

I have 2 questions I would like to ask and a general comment (no.3).

1) I use the crosshair all the time, however when I hover the crosshair over the current price line study the horizontal crosshair line changes color from black to white. See image attached. How can I correct this?

2) I have different trade entry configurations saved in the Trade Window. While chart trading I never have the Trade Window open, instead I make all my trades directly on the chart. I would like to be able right click and quickly change trade entry configurations from the Global Trade/Shortcut Menu. I have looked at all the available options to customize these but unfortunately I have not found a setting to do this?

Note: I do not believe it is possible to change configurations with keyboard shortcuts either (when the trade window is not visible). Either way, I would not use a keyword shortcut because it would introduce the risk that the wrong configuration is selected/unselected when switching between configurations during a trading session.

3) I have 8 configs saved for one chart tool and I need to access these in the chart drawing menu when I use that tool. Of course by adding 8 config options to the menu they will then appear for all tools even though I have no configs saved for many of them. I understand that this is happening because the menu options are global settings but it would be nice if the menu only displayed the custom configs saved for each tool. Not a major issue but just throwing the idea out there.

Thanks

1. This is explained with the Chart Values tool color setting description here:
Chart Drawing Tools: Chart Values Tool Configuration

2. There is not a way to do this like you describe.

We can add these. They would be called Trade Window Buy and Trade Window Sell and they are going to depend upon the settings on the trade window like the order type.
