We’ve introduced a new “Hide Order Lines” option to give you more control over your chart view while backtesting.

How to Enable It

  1. In the backtesting session, open the Backtesting Settings tab.

  2. Enable Hide Order Lines.

Once enabled, the lines that appear on the left side of your chart when placing an order will be hidden.

What Will Be Hidden?

  • Pre-entry order lines that show your planned entry, stop-loss, and profit target levels before placing a trade.

  • These lines appear on the left side of your chart when setting up an order.

Example: If you are setting up a Limit Order, you’ll normally see a line showing your planned Entry, SL, and PT levels. These lines will be hidden when this option is checked.

What Will NOT Be Hidden?

  • Post-entry lines that appear on the right side of your chart after a position is opened (like filled limit/market orders) will remain visible.

  • There’s currently no way to hide these post-entry lines.

When Do These Lines Appear?

  • They appear only when you have ‘Limit Order’ selected as your order type.

  • They do not appear if you are using the Long/Short Drawing(brackets) Tool.

  • They only appear before you open a position, showing your planned entry SL and PT levels.
