When we right click on the Drawing tools , it opens the attributed of the chart. [shown in pic ]

Instead it should open the attributes of that selected drawing tool like

- Change color
- Width of line
- Delete
- Color fill the tool
- timeframe
etc etc

Most of these can be done using the tools present in the top toolbar. To delete you can just select an annotation and hit the Delete button.

Please let me know if that is not sufficient for what you want to achieve.

offcourse we can achieve this with the help of top toolbar .


But from user experience perspective , it becomes cumbersome.

Also please provide an option to share the chart in the form of URL or some other pic form in whatsapp/ FB etc...Downloading and sharing it is really cumbersome.

Please check the Fibonacci tool ( widely used )...it is giving reverse information wrongly calibrated.
Fibonaccci tool is totally reversed in stockalyze . which needs to be corrected.


Drawing tools across timeframes is getting skewed many a times . please check it

User experience and UI are extremely imperative .  Would be great if you can review the same

You actually need fewer clicks when using the top toolbar, which is why we designed it this way. Just select an annotation and change its properties directly from the toolbar.

That said, usability is important, so if there are specific actions that feel cumbersome in day-to-day use, please share an example workflow. It will help us understand where the experience can be improved.

QuoteAlso please provide an option to share the chart in the form of URL or some other pic form in whatsapp/ FB etc...Downloading and sharing it is really cumbersome.

Currently you can export charts to image formats using Chart -> Export Chart, or simply press F8 and choose where to save the image.

We understand that one-click sharing could make this easier, and we will keep this in mind for future improvements.

In Stockalyze, Fibonacci retracement depends on the order in which the points are selected while drawing. If it appears reversed, try swapping the first two points.

Please also take a look at the attached "Dow-With-Fibonacci.png" image and let us know if the Fibonacci levels still appear inverted there.

We will test this further. Multi-timeframe drawing support is still a relatively recent feature, so there may be some edge cases that need refinement.

If you can share a specific example or steps to reproduce the issue, that would help a lot in identifying and fixing it.

This is the standard Fib tool that we use in standard tools like tv ,investing, amibroker and MT5



The percentage from starting point to ending point is to be mapped .


Also right click on drawing toolbars to change attributes will make the clicks lesser . we can change the drawings then and there ,annotate it  also alerts can be configured on the drawing tool lile if price crosees a trendline. All these can be achieved by right click.

Its same as in Stockalyze. Am I missing something you are trying to say?
I understand one level just before 100% is missing and it is already fixed locally, next update will have it. The retracement you drew is same as I drew in the attached image. Please let me know what is different.

This is correct ...the earlier fib retracement that you shared was reversed if you carefully see :-) ...Earlier the 100% started from top and in this new image you shared
100% retracement is at bottom :-)

Would be great if you publish it :-)

It is already there with your Stockalyze. As I said earlier too, the 0% and 100% positions depend on which point you select first. This is how it works with many other tools. Just reverse the order of first two points you click while create the retracement and you will get what you want.

To clarify more, the 0% is the level of first click and 100% is the level of the second click. So, it is in your hand where you want these levels to be present.

Yes I know that we can achieve this by reversing but most tools primarily measure retracement percentage straightforward since fib is used for assessing retracement. 

I m sharing a video of popular tools which works in straightforward way to present retracement percentage. Stockalyze shows point to point %.

Likewise Yahoo finance is also straightforeward.


But Yes I agree we can achieve this by reversing the fib tool in stockalyze :-)

Hi Gd iPas,

The recent update now has this change as well where the Fibonacci retracement in Stockalyze work in the same way as other tools.

Give it a try and please let me know if you have more ideas. :)
