I'm looking for a way to share groups of drawing objects across charts such that those groups can be toggled on and off (i.e. like turning layers on and off). Let me explain further:
Let's say I have a workspace with 4 charts, all showing the same trading instrument. Chart 1 is my trigger chart to execute and manage trades; Chart 2 (point & figure) is used only to identify and draw support/resistance zones; Chart 3 (30 min chart) is used only to identify and draw trend lines; Chart 4 (daily chart) is used only to draw fib lines.
I currently use "show global draw objects" feature on Chart 1 and I "attach" each drawn object to "all charts". This results in all those drawn objects showing up on Chart 1, all the time. However, I also have to use "show global draw objects" on the other three charts to see the objects drawn on those charts. This makes the charts very busy and cluttered as I have dozens of reference lines drawn. Turning them on/off individually is a problem.
I am looking for a way to "group" these objects (i.e. group the S/R zones together, group the trend lines together, etc.) and easily (and quickly) "toggle" these groups of objects "on or off" from any chart in the workspace without the need to select each object. For example, at times I only want to see the S/R lines, other times I want to see the S/R lines and the fibs, but not the trend lines. Other times I want to see the trend lines and the fibs, but not the S/R lines. You get the picture.
It would be ideal to toggle these groups of objects on/off from a button on the toolbar. Naming these object groups would also be helpful.
Does anyone know of an indicator or tool that would support this? If not, maybe someone would be interested in coding this?
Thanks!
