Hide Order Lines in Backtesting Charts

How to Hide Order Lines in Backtesting, which are used for Placing New Trades | How to Hide Pre-Entry Order Lines in Backtesting

Written by Hamza

“Hide Order Lines” option gives you more control over your chart view while backtesting.

How to Enable It

  • In the backtesting session, click the Settings (gear) icon at the top-right of the window.

  • Toggle on 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 and Stop 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 stop/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 and Stop Orders’ 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.
