Lock Objects in Chart
24 Mar 2019, 23:56


Hello!
I would like cTrader to have a lock so we can lock objects drawn in the graphs (Horizonal Line, Trend Line, Boxes and etc).
That way, when we click "unintentionally" the objects will not leave the place.
It would be similar to what exists in TradingView.
Thank you!

Very necessary in my opinion. This is a fundamental feature.

The reason is that tools such as Ctrader are oriented towards technical analysts, and we make very extended use of graphic tools. Otherwise we could just use a web-based trading platform, but instead, we need exceptional graphical tools to quickly map our charts with lines and other types of objects. And that must remain locked by default once we drop it on the chart so that we need to unlock it if we want to modify it later.

I spend a lot of time readjusting stuff that is moved when I try to drag the chart, clone, etc.... My levels are also changed and it is hard to set them afterwards because the references I use are multiple and require attention that I cannot afford to lose from my trading.
