Is it possible to lock the candlesticks & indicators to prevent them from being selected ?
Some indicators may draw a pretty large section on the chart, e.g.say an opening range indicator which draws a big filled rectangle.
Problem is.. that when you click on the drawing (e.g. the filled rectangle from the opening range indicator) on the chart.. it always selects the indicator , allowing you to change its properties
This becomes annoying when you :
- just want to pan/scale the chart. Now you can't and you need to search for an 'empty' spot on the chart, click there before being able to move pan the chart
- click on a drawing tool (e.g. fibonacci retracement) which overlaps one or more indicators/candlesticks.. Here also you have to search for an empty spot, since if the area is covered by an indicator and by a drawing tool you end up selecting the indicator instead of your drawing tool.
In most cases you dont needto select indicators or price data. Once you configured them.. they are usually ok and don't need changes.
It would therefore be nice to have an option to lock all price /candlesticks/indicators which prevent them from being selected on the chart
and off course a unlock option just in case you do want to be able to select them
Can you add an icon to the chart toolbar for this ?
