Assign Zoom In / Zoom Out :to: MouseWheel Up / MouseWheel Down

— The charts already have the ability to be scrolled sideways by using click,hold&drag.
What the charts do not have is an easy way to zoom in and out.

Zooming is a frequently-used function, and it would be much quicker, easier, and functional to assign it to the mousewheel.

If the mousewheel performed the zoom function, the mouse pointer could remain on the chart.  No need to move the mouse pointer between the chart and the zoom button.

Also, it would be easy to scroll the mousewheel one click for one level of zoom, or scroll it multiple clicks for faster zooming.

(note- the Customization Window already provides the ability to create hotkeys for most of the other functions (buttons) within the Drawing and Chart toolbars.  Access the Customizations by going to any toolbar, clicking the arrow on the top right, "Toolbar Options", then "Add or Remove...", then "Customize".
Currently the option to assign the mouse double-click does not seem to function (pls fix!), but so far all of the keyboard-based hotkeys do function)

Thank you MBT developers.

Futures Symbols -- Auto Update

— Your futures symbols should always update to the current front month in the watchlist.  This is how my TD Ameritrade account works.  I simply put in the symbol, say /YG and it creates the front month.  Today is good example of when that would have been helpful.  The DOW minis and the S&P 500 minis changed symbol codes.  At TD Ameritrade I can still see a current quote, but at MB Trading I have to manually correct my watchlist.  Unless you change this behavior I will have to do this every three months.  It should just happen, IMO. read more...

MACD Histogram only

—  I like to see another study added: MACD Histogram only
(without the Fast Len/Slow Len and the Signal Line showing).
It's center line (0) should be fixed to the center of the study window
while the histo bars would change lengths as time goes by to utilize the window's height.

The attached picture shows a chart with both the current MACD and the 'new' MACD Histogram I'm requesting...Thx

Currently I can 'hide' the Fast Len/Slow Len and the Signal Line by changing their
colors to match the chart background, but since the centerline is drawn depending on the
Fast/Slow/signal lines the histogram becomes hard to read at times.

Cancel and Close

—    Adding another button to the Order Entry pane (or adding a new template type)would facilatate closing a position that has outstanding orders... making for a "one click" procedure.

Currently when using an order entry pane (either on a chart, a Market Depth or a Ladder)
 we must :
1) change the order type from the drop down list (from whatever was last used) to Market
2) then click cancel
3) then click sell.

"Auto Center" Option for Market Depth Ladder

—

(First and foremost- Hats off to MBSupport and Software Development. Thankyou for your continued improvement and dedication.)

1)  -Please consider adding the option to "Auto Center" the Market Depth Ladder so that one does not have to actively click "Center" throughout the trading session.

2) - Please consider adding "Show Order Entry" option to the Market Depth Ladder so that one may choose to have the Order Entry dialouge box at the base of the Market Depth Ladder

Much appreciated!
