Programatically, when creating a drawing object such as a line, there is no way to make this object global. That is, it only appears on the chart that the indicator is added to. The documentation refers to prepending an '@' to the tag in order to reference global draw objects that were added manually to a chart. Will NT8 allow indicator creators to make drawing objects global programatically?
Thanks,

in NT7 if i have 3 instrument data series on one chart and indicators attached to each data series and i want to update the contract on one of the data series i have to remove them, add the new ones, and then attach the indicators to them again. like this type of situation:
has this been made an easier on maintaining multi data series charts in NT8?
dont believe anything you hear and only half of what you see
It's possible I may be misunderstanding you but why not select (highlight) the data series you want to change, then select the new instrument from the instrument drop down in the tool bar? Doing it this way you don't have to remove, add and then attach indicators to them again.
oh lol. ya i guess that worked. i didnt think that didnt anything since when selected it doesnt change up there at the top. it just continues to show the first data series.
thanks again.

No. The purpose of simulated orders are to keep your orders on your computer. Think of it as poker. You show your hand only when you need to. If you have a limit or stop order showing up in the exchange. Everyone can see it. Therefore, it can be targeted by frontrunners (limit orders) or pump & dumpers (stop orders). If it is a simulated limit order. It can turn into a market order once it hits your price. You show your hand only when you need to.
NT8 will come with support for MIT orders which for most of our brokerage technology providers (if not all) are simulated orders held locally that once triggered will issue a market order. Keep in mind, you will see slippage since your are executing at market.
