Two data series on single tab

[Lando Calrissian]

Hello I've two data series on a single tab
1) How can I make that one of the two turn invidible but still generates the data for the other data series?
2) One of the two data series does not show the limit orders available on the right click menu that opens on the chart
Thanks
Max

1) Open Data Series Properties and set Line Colour to Transparent (also set Chart Style to Line on Close, doing so uses least PC resources, doesn't affect the Data)
2) can't help as don't understand Q. Someone will

Thank Bruce,
Question 2: I mean, from one chart on the same tab I can trade from the screen, with the typical option we have to choose from the chart right click menu, while on the other chart from the same tab I cannot trde from the chart, as showed in the two screenshots. Thanks Max

Hello Lando Calrissian,

Thank you for the post.

If you have two data series on the same tab and only wish to execute orders to one instrument, you will need to change which instrument you want in the Instrument tab of the Chart Trader.


Whichever one of those instruments is selected is the one that will give you right click options for trading.

Please let me know if we can be of further assistance.

Hello thanks for your help
Well, I have same instruments on the two charts, as you can see on the screenshot. The trade I have made is showing on both, as it should be but still on the chart at the bottom I cannot open any trade. Maybe it is as it should be? Thanks

Hello Lando Calrissian,

Thank you for the inquiry.

That is correct; to ensure that your charts are clear and easy to read, if you have two data series with the same interval and instrument, the Chart Trader flags will only show up in the primary data series (in your case the top series). Similarly, when you right click to manually place trades from the chart, you will need to do so from the primary panel; currently there is no setting that can change which data series your Chart Trader is linked to if both are the same instrument.

Please let me know if we can assist you further.

Ok, that’s perfect. Thanks a lot. Max
