Risk-Reward Drawing Tool Bug

[TheTradingMantis]

When editing a Risk-Reward Drawing Tool, moving the Reward anchor (or Risk anchor) updates the other anchors as the anchor is moved. This is the behavior I would expect, but this is not true for the Entry anchor.

When moving the Entry anchor, the Reward and Risk anchors are not updated as the anchor is moved. The tool is only updated after editing is complete (clicking off the tool) or by subsequently moving the Risk or Reward anchor.

This can be fixed by replacing the following code snippet in the OnMouseMove override:

            
            else if (DrawingState == DrawingState.Editing && editingAnchor != null)
            {
                dataPoint.CopyDataValues(editingAnchor);
                if (editingAnchor != EntryAnchor)
                {
                    if (editingAnchor != RewardAnchor && Ratio.ApproxCompare(0) != 0)
                        SetReward();
                    else if (Ratio.ApproxCompare(0) != 0)
                        SetRisk();
                }
            }
​

with the following code:

            else if (DrawingState == DrawingState.Editing && editingAnchor != null)
            {
                dataPoint.CopyDataValues(editingAnchor);
                if (editingAnchor == EntryAnchor)
                {
                    if (Ratio.ApproxCompare(0) != 0)
                    {
                        SetReward();
                        SetRisk();
                    }
                }
                else
                {
                    if (editingAnchor != RewardAnchor && Ratio.ApproxCompare(0) != 0) SetReward();
                    else if (Ratio.ApproxCompare(0) != 0) SetRisk();
                }
            }

Hello TheTradingMantis,

Thank you for the suggestion, with how the tool is currently designed it does need to wait for a chart update to recalculate the values after moving the anchor. I will make a note about this for development to review further.
