Need help drawing tool

[napoleon_k1988]

Hey Traders,

Got a question that's been driving me crazy. The Fibonacci Retracements tool (Default F8 for most users) has 7 lines on it, the 0, 23.6, 38.2, 50, 61.8, 76.4, and 100. Once the tool has been drawn on the chart, you can click on it, pop up window appears, and click on the bottom where it says "Levels" and added more. I've added the +138/161 and -138/161, for a total of 11 lines, and saved to template.

My problem: I originally downloaded NT8 on my desktop computer, and did the above mentioned, added 11 lines to the tool. Somehow, every time I draw the tool. the 11 lines are defaulted, so I don't have to click on the tool each time and load the template. Fast forward a few months, I'm traveling and downloaded NT8 on my laptop. On my laptop, I can't figured out how I defaulted the Fibonacci Retracement tool to draw all 11 lines. Each time (on my laptop) I draw the tool. I have to first draw it out, then double click on the auto clicker tool, click on templates, and load the template. How did I make the Fibonacci Retracement tool always draw out my saved template, without having to click then load the template? It's just a pain in the butt each time I have to right click/double click, click on template, load the template.

Hope this all makes sense. Thank you the help. Also...can't seem to get the bar timer to work.

Hello napoleon_k1988,

Thank you for your post.

You just need to name the template "Default" instead of whatever you named it previously. Get your fib set up as you want it, then hit the template button > save > input Default as the name (make sure you capitalize the D) > Save. Next time it should automatically apply that default template for you.

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