Dear All,
I am using Jforex (Dukascopy).

See the attached screen, both TP and SL are displayed as horizontal lines ... What I wanted is to see the BID/ASK value(s) for all my market orders on the chart as well. Is that possible?

Thanks,

S.

You have the choice to see the chart as Bid or Ask ... but it seems to me that there's no way to see both at the same time.

Ok, but neither the BID nor the ASK are displayed; only the TF and SL.

Anyway in your example, the TP and SL can be only BID as they are for a BUY order exit.

Thanks for the reply; you are right, however I am still not sure from your answer if under my example, it is possible to see the BID on the chart as a horizontal line and if yes, how can it be done.

Regards,

By default, the chart current price plotted line is the BID.

Sure, but If I have 5 outstanding orders, I want to see 5 lines for each of the BID prices (not the current bid). Is that possible, like in MT4?

I think I got what you mean. It seems that your Dukascopy account is merging all your positions (same symbol) in one position. Right ?

If so, you can request to change your account to keep all separate positions without merging them.

But usually, the positions are merged because you used the merge option yourself. By default, each opened position is separate.

Once again thanks,
Let me check and verify tonight and I shall get back to you with an answer.

Yes - you'd need to draw the lines yourself, via strategy (if not otherwise possible). - And subsequently remove them when order(s) was/were closed.
But why don't you ask in the dukas' forum?
Indicator attached.
