View Full Version : Left Click Zoom

In NT6 (and 5) the left click zoom is still very touchy...often when tryng to highlight a graphic object to move it on a chart (I do this often) ...if you don't get the curser just so, you will get a huge chart zoom in and then have to fuss around to getthe chartback to normal....could there perhaps be a seperate zoom in / out tool on the tool bar?

Graphic objects such as a rectangle or line cannot be partially moved above the top or below the bottom of a chart. ....if one could movelines and rectangles etc.partially outside of the chart, it would facilitate measuring from pivots (as one example) when moving graphic objects around etc..

The fibonacci time extensions tool cannot currently go above 300%...this perhaps should be able to go to 500% or so for additionaloptions as a cycles tool.

I could not change the simulation color in the Chart Trader window.

The seconds charts are a gas....

It.s looking good....Thanks....Alfred

Hi Dierk...

Thanks for the response...

The simulation color in NT6 was automatically changed upon restart today...just could not seem to get it changed during a session yesterday.

Thanks...

Hi Again Dierk...

Another note...it would nice if graphic objects could also extend into the space to the right of the last bar...into the right side margin one has set...would be handy for anticipating cycles etc....

Thanks

Will add your suggestions to our list of considerations. Thanks

BTW: There already is implement a copy&paste feature. See context menu and <CTRL>-C and <CTRL>-V.

Hi Dierk...

Re drawing tools...I am very hot for the "Stevenson Price Time Target" idea (it is basically a variation of a Schiff pitchfork)...seems to work very well...this could be automatic or perhaps more preferable applied bt eye....

See this link for how it works...http://ptt.50webs.com/method.html

Below is a bit more attached on this idea...

Also...the drawing tools still cannot be extended into the upper or lower or right margins (...I am sure you are aware of this...)....and....is there a way to set the upper and lower margin on a chart ??....finally....rather than copy and paste a drawing tool....what about just a "duplicate" function upon right click...??...would be easier and quicker....

Thanks.....

Hi Again Dierk...

Here is another very handy drawing tool that might be considered...a trendline with an adjustable flag (flag lenghth and up or down adjustable)...that way you can spot the end of a trendline when it extends beyond a boundry after moving it for measuring purposes......example attached....

Thanks....

Thanks for your suggestions. We'll put them to our list of future considerations.

Hi Dierk...

Attached is what I feel is a better way to adjust rectangles....the rectangle adjusts from any corner, so you do not have to adjust two seperate lines to change the size and shape...might be a consideration fo NT...

Also...have you considered a parrallelogram tool ?

Thanks....

Hi Dierk..

The orange ABC graphic was created using the Pitchfork tool and enabeling only the Trend and Retracement lines.

A couple of suggestions....per the attached chart, when you highligt ABC and try to change point C (like rotate CB 180 degrees vertical...sometimes point C is locked and you cannot change it. Also when you try to move ABC , you must be careful to grab it pretty much at the center of AB, otherwise you can easily distort it. It might be better to be able to grab it any place except the end points to move it. Similarly on moving the Line tool graphic...be able to grab any point on the line to move it...

A Duplication function would be nice rather (or in addition to ?) than Copy and Paste...would save time...

Thanks...!
