Trend Lines and Annotations disappearing on linked Historical Charts

[jfritchey]

I draw a trendline or Annotation on a linked Historical chart. I click on another linked symbol and then click on the original symbol and the trendline or annotation is there just as you would expect.

If you then click on the X in the upper right corner (Usually by mistake) of that linked historical chart and then move the cursor over the bid on the portfolio page to display  that same historical chart of that symbol the trend line or annotation is gone.

You can link again and the trendline or annotation will again display.

Is it possible that trendlines and annotations are being stored in two different places for linked and un-linked charts?

I expected it to show once drawn no matter if the chart was linked or not.

XYZ linked chart is not considered the same as XYZ non-linked chart, so it works as intended.

[jfritchey]

That explain it.

Thanks Jerry

Would it be possible to have an option under the Chart Display Settings to elect to display annotations and trend lines drawn on an un-linked chart displayed on the linked chart?

[Jerry Medved]

no but if you set MT annotation setting so that annotations are not unique per chart, then annotations on same types of charts for the same symbol will be shared, including linked charts. 

SETTINGS / CHARTS / GENERAL - "Annotations Unique per Chart" checkbox in the last section (Miscellaneous)

All my charts were annotated with "Annotations Unique per Chart" checkbox in the last section (Miscellaneous) checked.  When  I  check the "Annotations Unique per Chart"  all my original annotations disappear.  Is there some way, on a one time basis,  to get them converted to the charts so I do not have to manually re-due all the annotations?

[Jerry Medved]

sorry, missed your reply.  

Will check

Thanks.  I am looking forward to it. The linked charts is a quick way to see a symbols charts in multiple time frames.
