Hi.

Let me know please:

a) Working chart order disappears from the screen when trading this instrument - MYM-202012-ECBOT
First time when I tried to trade it today all orders disappeared (stop and profit too) at all, not from screen only. Then I updated the program to version 2191 and only working order always disappears from the screen, stop and profit did not disappear, though maybe they do so sometimes, not always.
Also it says - Symbol settings not found. Add this symbol to the program in the next updates please.

b) Is it possible to place chart orders not by clicking right click and selecting "buy stop" or "buy limit" from menu, but click hot button and it would create an order where the 'cross' cursor is placed on the chart currently.


Software version 2191.

Thank you.
