Thank you for your prompt reply. I will submit as the issue is still here. Also, the app has been very slow this week which is annoying trading like that.
Indicators in new chart shifted not updated once you change the timeframe;
Platform freezing;
Sync drawings not working for all my windows;
Unable to see indicators and bots (already mentioned);
Platform closing for no reason;
Orders not been placed as you click to button.
I have checked my connection and also opened MT5 to see if it is my computer but everything is running seamless.
Thank you
Thanks, let us know when you have done it so that we can check
Hello, I did it yesterday.
Please let me know if you need further information or if I have to tweak something on my end.

Thanks for posting in our forum. You can check the values before adding them to the output series and make sure they do not cross the limits. If they cross the limits then use the limit values instead.
Thank you for your prompt reply. In fact I did a google search but i could only find paid indicators and so I came here looking for some enlightment.
I hope I can find someone willing to help.
Thanks
You obviously need to improve your Google skills because when I googled it, 2 of the first 3 results are multitime frame moving averages that are free:

Confused
Hi Spotware,
I just took the time to answer your survey however I felt like it didn't really went to the point as you didn't leave more options. In this case I don't use Risk/Reward tool since it is not provided as native tool on ctrader (desktop/mac/iphone). I have tried some third part before with no lucky.
Within cTrader itself I don't think so. You can change the time zone, but since days start/end on midnight, the period separator will still appear whenever midnight happens regardless of the time zone you set:
So your best best would probably be either:
1) look for a custom indicator (or write your own) that draws a period separator at your desired time
2) set your time zone such that when it's midnight in that time zone, it's 5pm NY time.
Hi firemyst,
From my understanding the period separator should be the same, no? When the market closes/open there should be your milestone, not on midnight on my timezone, otherwise it appears as today, 3 period separator for 1 single day but for market reference the period does not corelate with your timezone. Just like in Metatrader, here it will have the same period separator as on your computer however you cannot see the hour from your timezone, which it is what I do now in ctrader too. Anyways….

What I was mentioning was to have the 1st screenshot you send over the chart so it would help scalpers and day traders. If I'm trading gold and GBPJPY my SL/TP will be very different for each instrument and having it over the chart would be a charm for productivity.
Please see a rough sketch about having it over the charts.
In regards to the strategy, the error popped when I clicked on what you mentioned.
You can add the SL/TP columns in the “Trade watch” window under the chart if you're viewing that;
when you place an order, the SL and TP lines are on the chart, or can be dragged from the order's entry point to show on the chart.
So no idea what are you talking about???
Hi firemyst,
Thank you for your time to try to help. I know there is the trade watch window but placing orders over the trade watch is not part of my trading system and I was looking to something quicker (chart trading) than the tradewatch. Since I mostly do chart trading it is time consuming going under configuration to set your SL/TP and depending on the market I'm trading the SL from one symbol may be very narrow for another symbol and dragging and dropping the SL/TP as you mentioned may be to late for me.
Please see my next comment to elucidate what I was mentioning.
Sorry the delay and that I was not clear on my question. I have copy and paste in a new indicator, which showed 4 warnings, but with no success on painting the OBV with the MAs, please see some screenshots I have attached.
I have double clicked the indicator scale in order to have it showed back but with no luck.
Thank you for you suggestion and I would like to reinforce that this would be a great idea.
I was wondering the other day something like that, for instance if you want very short entries you need to keep adjusting your sl/tp for each order. This sucks so it would be great maybe to have a dropdown strategy field so you can choose an entry strategy then every entry will follow the current chosen strategy (this would also fix at least part of your problem). The strategy dropdown field could be above/below the buy/sell button so it is very visible to see which strategy (std lot size, sl and tp) you will be using.
Thank you

1: Is there a way to have stop loss and/or take profit activated by default when opening the order placement window? It seems somewhat reckless that they are always OFF by default.
2: Is there a way to get the Ctrader order window to remember stop loss or take profit numbers for a specific chart, symbol or workspace? It is very clumsy having to tick 2 boxes and then fill in completely different values for each symbol...
3: If you set a specific quantity in the Quicktrade buttons, this quantity becomes the default quantity for that specific chart and symbol, including for the order placement window. This is useful but I can't seem to find any official recognition that this is actually possible. Is this an intended feature?
(but the SL & TP information or tick/untick appears to not save for that specific window)

Hello Nickk,
Thank you for taking the time to reply to my post. I use this indicator however it keeps crashing once in a while. Also you have to allow Full Permission for it to work and since it is from 3rd party developer I tend to believe this is not very healthy giving full permission like this.
Thank you again and let’s keep praying for spotware to add this feature as we discuss here tradingview had launched another volume profile tool :p

Two years later, and still no answer....
Well, there are already a lot of great working volume profile indicators made for cTrader. I totally get it in this case that Spotware has priorities on other things.
1) Nickk allow me to disagree with your statement.
There aren't ANY "great working volume profile indicators". That is not a true statement.
And of course we are not talking about the ones charging $20/month!
The ones that are free are buggy and not ready for prime time.
I'm obviously grateful towards all the individuals that have been developing / converting indicators and cbots, because they have been devoting their time and are putting in a lot of effort without charging a single dime to help our trading community, And yes, many of the indicators that have been converted for cTrader, perform quite good.
2) IMHO Spotware's priorities should be the needs of their clients/users. Yes we are seeing updates once in a while but not frequent enough.
3) I have asked for a simple percentage indicator for over two years and no one from their software development team has listened.
4) Same issue with a footprint - order flow chart indicator that is able to combine volume profile.
These are must have trading tools that are not part of the cTrader platform, but the competition does offer them.
Well, ClickAlgo, for instance, has a great collection of free volume profile indicators that are working great for me though.
And yeah, that's true. A lot of great and important suggestions that people gave over all the years are still not there.
Hi Nick, would you mind sharing which nice volume profile you are using? Once you use volume profile in other platforms you get right away that ctrader lacks big time this tool. I tested myself every single free volume profile out there and they are poor if you compare com other platforms (tradingview for instance).
I would be very glad not to pay 20EUR/month for a indicator as I am already paying a lot of commision to ctrader on my operations.
Thanks in advance and looking forward to see yoiur awesome volume profile.
