Chat Trader and a strategy

astrolobe · 04-03-2008, 04:34 PM

How do I see the chart trader on a chart that uses a strategy?
I am only using a strategy for the multi-timeframe capability, but I enter my trades manually, and would like to see the trades on my chart which has a strategy loaded.

thanks.

Unfortunately you can't have botha at the same time. This is a current limitation. You could have two instance so the same chart, run strategy on one and chart trader on the other.

Thanks Ray,
I am currently using two charts for each instrument. I follow 8 instruments, so 16 charts is becoming very cluttered.
Are there any plans to provide multi-timeframe Indicators in the near future?

Multi-series charts and indicators planned for NT7.

I also asked about this today in the chart trading webinar. Glad to see its planned. I think it will be very helpful as would DOM capabilities in the chart trader and the ability to trade based on indicators on the chart (MACD, TRIX crossovers etc.) instead of only price data.
