Instrument Link on Positions Tab

[Segwin]

Hello,

As a future feature I'd like to see the ability to instrument link from the positions tab.

Thanks,

Terry

Hello Terry,
Thanks for your post.

I can certainly submit that request for you. So that I can be as detailed as possible when I write up this request can you go into further detail on what you would want the behavior to be when the Positions tab is instrument linked to another window?

Hi Josh,

Just to have the ability to click on the instrument and have it come up in the chart window right away (like the Market Analyzer and Alert windows.

Thanks.

Just curious if there is an ETA on this feature. It seems extremely useful to click on a position and have it load the charts. I'm a bit surprised this isn't in the software by default.

This feature has not yet been implemented, however, a similar functionality can be achieved with a Market Analyzer and instrument linking to a chart. Here is a short video example:

Thanks Patrick. This helps, but is there a way to auto add positions to Market Analyzer or do they have to be manually added? It just seems natural to select a position from the Positions window to see the chart.

There is no way to auto-add instruments as you desire. That would be the purpose of the feature request. I was just providing a potential stopgap until that feature is available in the platform.
