Drawings follow the symbol
A drawing belongs to the ticker, not the day — where it's kept, and how it reaches your other devices.
A level you draw on a ticker shows on every date and every timeframe you replay that ticker on. Draw support on Monday’s session and it’s there on Tuesday’s, on the 1m and the daily alike.
Where drawings are kept
| Stocks | Forex, gold and silver, futures | |
|---|---|---|
| This browser | Every edit, the moment you make it | Every edit, the moment you make it |
| Your account | When you save a chart template | Only inside a chart template |
- Reloading the page never loses a drawing — the browser copy is written on every change.
- A dot on the template Save button means this symbol has drawings not yet on your account. Save (⌘+S) to put them there.
- Saving writes the symbol’s whole set of drawings, replacing what your account held for it.

Dot = drawings not yet saved to your account
FAQ
My drawings didn't load between 11 and 16 September
That was a bug, fixed in the 16 September release. Drawings saved in that window load again.
A drawing I had several copies of is now one
When drawings moved to the per-symbol format, stacked copies of the same drawing were collapsed into one.
Some Long position, Short position, Bars pattern or Curve drawings never appeared
They were saved without enough points to draw. Those empty rows were removed; the tools place correctly now.
Does loading a template on another ticker move my drawings?
It moves the template’s drawings onto the open symbol, at that symbol’s prices, and replaces the drawings there. The desk asks first.
