Hello, is there way to snap to levels of Price Retracement tool? If there is not an option, is there way to "disable" snapping by holding an key while moving line etc? Thanks you Tom

is there way to snap to levels of Price Retracement tool? There is no option to snap anything to a drawing, this includes the Price Retracement Tool. If there is not an option, is there way to "disable" snapping by holding an key while moving line etc? If you are referring to the snapping to the Open/High/Low/Close while modifying a drawing, then refer to the following: Chart Drawing Tools: Automatic Snapping of Chart Drawing Ends to Open, High, Low or Close Bar Values There is not a way to Enable/Disable by holding a modifier key. Just the options through the menu. These can be assigned to a Control Bar or Keyboard Shortcut for quick on/off.

Thanks you. I have tried to play with snapping and it seems that I was bit confused, so I have additional question: If level of Price Retracement tool is at 5147.88 and I'm trying to place line there, it is jumping higher to 5148 or lower to 5147.75, so: Is it normal Sierra behavior or is there setting that allow me to place line where I want? Thanks you Tom Date Time Of Last Edit: 2024-04-15 17:41:31

What you are seeing is not a "snapping" issue. Rather, what you are seeing is how Sierra Chart works, as you can only enter points that are valid price points for the instrument based on the Tick Size. This is also true horizontally as you can not place points in between bars.

Yeah, I have found out solution. It is Chart > Chart settings > Chart Drawings and Adjust Tool Values to Tick Size: NO ... and it is working. Thanks you
