Trend line bug

If I draw trend lines an oscillator, they stay on screen when I change symbol.

Hi dmn,

This is by design.

WHY?

That makes zero sense. Who designed that???

An oscilator is an interpretation of symbol price. Basically, it is price. So why carry over trend lines when symbol I changed?

I just cant believe this one. 

I jump between 4 trading symbols, actively trading all day. I use the same workspace and template all day. I draw divergence trend lines on oscillators. By the end of the day I have the trend lines from 4 symbols all over the oscillator for one symbol.  Can you picture that for a moment please?  "By design" ???

Do any hand-on day traders actually use this platform to trade? Or just crypto algo hobbyists?

Hi dmn,

Indicator charts are not used only for oscillators but for many other types of indicators as well. And there are many traders that want to keep their indicator configuration across symbols.

Understood. But quite clearly, a trend line drawn on a MACD indicator is not an indicator configuration.
