Default Instrument in the Chart Trader

[franconqn]

Hi everyone, im trying to put as a default instrument the future MES (i have MES and ES as instruments in my charts, so i see in the list both of them)
I'd like to fix MES as my default instrument, since I have done some mistakes, and that was a lot of money lost (i thought i was trading a micro, so i extended my risk and afterwards lose the trade)
Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Hello franconqn,

Thank you for your note.

While you cannot specify a default instrument to be automatically loaded into a window, you can make it so it's the first thing you see in the instruments dropdown. Open a chart to MES, then click the instrument dropdown in the top left. Hover over the instrument's name, then click the little sideways pin that appears to the right of it's name. This will keep it at the top of your instrument list so it's always the first thing you have to pick.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.
