    Do you know if MultiCharts allows me to trade right off the charts? Similar to the Order Ticket with eSignal.

    If your software allowed me to add customized trading buttons (just like eSignal) I would definitely consider purchasing your software. At this price, it is a compelling proposition indeed.

    I love the interface's elegance of MultiCharts, however, have to stick with eSignal because I have found no alternative.

    Hey Andrew,

    I have attached a screenshot of the button template editor. What those buttons do is basically forward the order to TWS, allowing the trader to act upon opportunities immediately out of eSignal.

    To see where they appear in the chart, please refer to this Flickr link (I can only attach one file in this reply):

    Any chance of putting the DOM on the chart like the ButtonTrader ?

    This would definitely make MultiCharts the King of Charting, Trading and Strategy software.
    All the other software will go out of business.

    That would be nice. Tums, what is the name of the study that colors the bars please. Ive looked through them and I cannot figure out which one it is. This is the only charting software Ive ever seen that you couldnt use up and down colors on bars and volume.

    It is called "Color Bars".

    To make colors in the volume bars, the "Volume Avg" does color.

    My list does not have anything called color bars. I guess thats why I cant find it.:) I did get the volume colorsworking. I have another problem too, my charts are starting at 10:30 instead of 9:30 and its not central time. Its just not printing the first hours bars. I have sessions set to RTH. Weird. I tried to get online chat support but they seem to be offline.
