Which price (BID or ASK) is used to draw the chart bars and for trading?
Be aware of the following universal rule which helps you to find the correct price of your order on the chart: * All charts on the SmarTrader platform are ALWAYS built using the BID price only! * All BUY orders are executed at the ASK price and closed by the BID price; * All SELL orders are executed at the BID price and closed by the ASK price. If you want to also see the ASK price: right click on the chart -> Properties -> Select:Current Price Line -> checked Ask Line checkbox In this case you will see an second price line, indicating the ASK price. Please note that historical data, including bar data (high/low/open/close) will still use BID prices.
