    By float do you mean if you have multiple monitors, moving a chart to another monitors screen?

    Answer is yes.

    You need to create a new desktop.

    -Go to File Tab
    -Create new desktop.
    -Move desktop to new monitor window.
    -In that desktop create new workspace
    -Open chart analysis.

    You can open as many desktops as you have monitors/Ram memory. Each desktop can have up to 8 workspaces (I think) tabbed to it. With as many charts as you can squeeze into each tab workspace. Any time frame. Any symbol.

    You also need to make use of the User Guide. Search "desktop" and "workspace"

    Also, the critiques regarding TS cust service are unfortunately pretty accurate. Are you listening TS? Put down the Pina Coladas Cruz bros!

    Thanks. i actully mean to float the charts outside of the desktop. Having it within the desktop is limiting. I ahoping that they add this feature ASAP.
