What does the orders and data dragging button do?

Postby BB123 » 22 Jan 2024

I looked in the wiki but couldn't find anything.. Just wondering what the "order and data dragging" button does.. Its the button with the hand and the bars behind the hands.. I normally trade via signals-- so not manually placing trades on the chart... Is this button to specifically move manually added limit trades or Sl's to new locations?

Hello BB123,

When Orders and Data Series Dragging mode is on, only your data series and orders will be clickable.
That mode was added for traders to not be distracted by other chart objects (indicators, drawings, etc.) when moving charts during trading or managing orders.
