How do I draw on the chart?
Trade › the tool rail beside the chart
The tool rail beside the chart groups the drawing tools by kind: lines, shapes, measurements, text and more. Pick a tool and click on the chart to place it. Drawings are anchored to price and time, so they stay put when you zoom or change the timeframe. Select a drawing to style it, favourite the tool, or delete it. The eraser clears everything.
