they don't even have an option to hide drawing current trades overtop of the chart - which I admit looks cool, but for some people it would be sufficient to just see the PnL on the right.. and have a clearer view of the chart.

Yeah... @ratfink will understand the hint, do you think?

One of the Ninja partner had developed a suite of tools for Ninja and there was one tool that did exactly what you want but unfortunately the site is no more active. Given the quality of this suite i thought maybe Ninja could buy the exclusivity of his tools in order to include them in their platform but it did not happen.

Could someone kindly point me in the right direction? I am looking for an indicator or a setting within NT 7 and NT8 which shows me the exits of a position I took in linear fashion. The green lines are manually drawn, for illustration purposes

This is my first time uploading an image, so hopefully I've done this right.
many thanks


Can you right click the chart... Click data series and and the bottom of the options is to plot executions... That what you want?

You can plot the execution markers, but the question is about having lines connecting the entry and exit markers, which is not available in NT, unless you draw them yourself. The issue is to get NT to automatically plot connecting lines between the entry and exit, to make it more clear which orders were part of each trade, and how the trade turned out.

This is available in some platforms, but not in NT.

Bob.

Bobwest,

yes that is my query exactly.

Thanks to everyone who is responding. I'd be happy to have a vendor chime in.....eg, prepared to buy something that plots (which NT should be thrilled to provide, as a matter of course, for free).

Lets see what develops

I was trying to nudge @ratfink into doing it, but I don't know if he is taking the bait. We'll have to see.

Consider message received, I got the hint.

I was out all day today and football tonight (obviously, pain has to be sat through, although the boys delivered at last... ) but I have made preliminary tests and looks like I can access the tricksy stuff I need in NT8 same as NT7 plus thread locks already in place so consider it underway.

Cheers
