In MC.Net deselecting the precise marker setting in the y-scale window preference pane keeps markers visible. Does standard MC have this option?
Yes the regular MC has this and yes unchecking it causes the marker for the overbought and oversold to move out of the way when the RSI or %R markers come down and slip behind them. So that would suggest that
maybe someone complained before and
maybe they came up with this as a compromise solution because it is too much programming effort for them to get all the charts to work properly (as my 30 minute bar chart seems to do). So for me maybe I am lucky enough to have at least one chart that works properly
I just tested copying my 30 minute chart again and switching it to the 5 minute resolution where the issue is occurring. This time it does not work (the RSI marker is still behind the overbought/oversold markers).
I discovered on one chart (the weekly bars) and one indicator (the %R) if I drag the scale in certain drag locations it fixes the problem and in others it deverts back. This does not work in the other charts. This suggests that maybe it isn't that easy to fix
So I guess SPtrader's solution (don't show the overbought/oversold markers) or Darob's solution (uncheck the Format Window, Y-PriceScale, Precision Maker check box) are the only two workaround solutions we have. However for my 30 minute bars (where IMHO things work as they should) it is better to not use either one since Darob's solution causes the correct marker (the RSI and %R marker) to move out of the way rather than the overbought/oversold markers moving out of the way. Maybe a checkbox for plot1 to always show would be preferred by some. Anyway, I changed this thread's subject to "
Always having RSI/%R value show in right scale (2 workaround solutions exist)" and placed a pointer in the first post to this 9th post paragraph.
