Hello Alesiosc,

Is the chart the global drawing object is drawn on the same instrument as the chart in your screenshot?

May I have a screenshot of the Drawing Objects window with the drawn object parameters showing?

[Alesiosc]

yes. same instruments but different timeframes, though that hasnt mattered in the past. top chart has the pinkish line highlighted which is line 2. thanks

Hello Alesiosc,

May I have a screenshot of the global drawing object in the Drawing Objects window? (The one in the screenshot is not global)
This will be shown with ES 09-22 (All Charts) in the Attach to dropdown.

do you mean this?

[Alesiosc]

ahh. thats seems to have worked. thanks.....

[Alesiosc]

hello again. it seems i can attach each individual drawing object like this but i have to go into the drawing objects window for each one and change to all charts. how can i have it so any drawing object i use plots on all charts without me having to do each one individually please...

Hello Alesiosc,

Drawing objects are on a specific chart until you set them to (All Charts) so they are global.
