{quote} Several others have asked this in previous posts and basically it is something you will have to put up with as I can see no way of retaining each Pairs own trend lines without them appearing on the other Pairs, it tends to be more of an issue for Pairs with a similar price range as the previous Pairs trend lines can show on the current chart but if the price range is totally different then the trend lines are far enough out of range to not show on the new chart.

{quote} The color of the Currency pair is dictated by the overall profit/loss of that pair no matter how many orders are set for that pair at least that is how it is supposed to work. When I re-coded the indicator color code recently I had no issues with the color being wrong when several orders were open on the same pair. I presume that is what you mean by your comment "the profit and loss are still not displayed correctly" ???

{quote} Yes, I reinstalled MT4, or this result. {image} I modified the time frame, the other defaults. {image}
{quote} I confirm the problem in the profit color display. Green is where the red should be. {image}

{quote} {quote} Yes I have managed to duplicate the problem and you are correct it appears to pick up the profit/loss color from the last trade if you have several open for that currency pair. Obviously my new code has not fixed the problem and to be honest I really have tried everything I can think of and I have run out of ideas and spare time for now. As it is not working correctly I suggest do not use it.

MT4 has no easy way to create a watch-list for the current session; and on the lower time frames that watch-list can change quickly.
Most of us use pen and paper
to note the pairs we are interested in this trading session.
It occurred to me, since you are already coloring buttons for profit and loss, that your utility is well suited to adding a watch-list feature.
For example, a trader changes charts using the symbol changer and finds a handful of pairs of interest to them.
Right click on the symbol button and it highlights that button (as per chosen color in settings). Once the scan is complete the buttons highlighted represent your watch-list.
Right click a highlighted button again and it returns to the original color.
