How to load selected symbol into *current* chart?
26 Jun 2019, 16:50


Hi everyone:

In cTrader desktop 3.5, when I'm in "automate" mode, and have multiple instances of a bot with different symbols/forex pairs, I can click on anyone, and it will load up that particular symbol into the currently selected chart.

However, when I'm in "trade" mode, I cannot seem to figure out how to click on a symbol in my watch list, or elsewhere on the left, and have it automatically load up in the currently selected chart I'm viewing.

Is there a way to do this without having to open in a "new chart"?

See screen captures below.

Thank you.

Hi FireMyst,

Go to In Settings -> Market Watch -> Single Click and set to Active Symbol Panel.

Best Regards,

Hi FireMyst,

Can you try changing your workspace and let me know if it works?

Best Regards,

Hi FireMyst,

Forgot to mention that this works for linked charts. So add your chart into a group and it shall work.

Ah ha! That makes a difference.

It's working nicely now once I had the one tab chart linked into a group. :-)

Thank you @Panagiotis.

This leads me to another question now -- when I have the tabbed chart linked to group "A", it works.

If I change that to "B", it doesn't.

So my next question is - how do we get it to target a specific group if that's possible?

Eg, suppose I want it to change with group C instead of A?
