Exiting with open trades

[Julienxr]

So I found out today that if I have open orders in NT that I can't exit out the program or orders won't get filled, I assume ther is no way to avoid this, I have to keep the program opened 24/7 as long as i have orders open? What if the platform freezes up or malfunctions to where I have to restart it when I am in front of my screen, or worse it does it when I'm away from my screen? You guys don't keep track of orders? It's just a demo account, but I would've been upset if I were already live trading.

Another thing is in beta 8 all indicators can be drawn on separately to where when I make horizontal trend lines on one chart and then I switch pairs to another chart the indicators are starting from scratch, however in nt7 if I draw on an indicator, then switch charts, the same markings are still showing, is there a way to address this? I can't keep track of historical peaks and troughs with the ease of nt8 beta?

On not running the PC 24/7.... Why can't you initialize the order time-in-force to GTC and still power down your PC and recover with orders still good to go?

protected override void Initialize()
{ 
     TimeInForce = Cbi.TimeInForce.Gtc;
}

There are other control panel settings such as the Tools-Options-Misc tab for closing orders at time of day. Per the guide... "12:00:00 AM" setting disables this feature.
