    Hello bibofeng,

    The order line colors can be changed in the Chart Trader Properties window.
    Help guide: Operations > Order Entry > Chart Trader > Chart Trader Properties​ > Available properties and definitions

    Unfortunately, there is no documented access for changing Chart Trader Properties through NinjaScript.

      Thank you Chelsea. I understand we change the color for each type of orders from the chart trader property. But I could not use set different color for the Buy and Sell orders for the same type or order. For example if the Buy limit order, I want the line is green, and for the Sell order, I want its color is red. So it is easy to tell those orders are buy or sell.

        Hello bibofeng,

        Unfortunately, NinjaTrader does not have separate color properties for different order actions only the order type.

        I would be happy to submit a feature request for the development team to consider this.
        Once I have a tracking ID for this request I will post in this thread for future reference.

          Hello bibofeng,

          This request is being tracked with ID # SFT-1526.

          Please note, we receive many requests and cannot reasonably implement all requested features or changes. Interest is tracked internally and if enough interest is tracked, it would be weighed against how feasible it would be to make those changes to consider implementing, so we cannot offer an ETA or promise of fulfillment.

          When new features are implemented, they will be listed in the Release Notes page of the Help Guide. The ID number may be different than the internal feature request tracking ID, but the description of the feature will let you know if that feature has been implemented.
