Customize Strategy/Position Arrows - Exits
The Exits tab allows you to customize the color and style of exit arrows and ticks for a strategy or a position, including whether to display the name of the exit signal. You can also choose to connect the exit with its corresponding line and choose a desired color and style line.
The chosen format for any strategy will apply to all strategies in the same Chart Analysis window. By default, the properties of the first strategy applied to the chart are used until the user makes a specific change.
If there are no related exits for the selected strategy, the Exits dialog will not contain any information.
