Plot/Noplot and Scaling issues

Postby lantama » 28 Mar 2011

Hello,
I have two issues with plotting indicator values in price charts.

1.
I use plot to plot some stoplevels from an indicator into a pricecharts. However, after a session I use "Noplot" to eliminate the dots. This works fine, but somehow the values printed in the status line won't be deleted. They stay there forever if not be overwritten. Any ideas? Looks like a bug for me.

2.
I am looking for a solution to show inidcator values in the status line without a new scaling in the chart. So for example I want to print a 1 in the status line as indicator value without plotting 1 on the chart and messing up the price scale by doing this. Any recommendations?


Thanks in advance,
lantama

you can un-tie the indicator to the instrument's chart scale.

Format Instrument > Scaling > General

uncheck the box for "Expand Scale to Indicators"

Please report it on the PM page, if you have not resolved it already.
