# Chart Position Lines

## Chart Position Lines

When you have an open position, horizontal lines appear directly on the chart — one for each key price level. This is the most visual way to monitor and manage your trade without switching to any side panel.

***

### Types of Lines

#### Entry Line

A horizontal line at your average entry price.

**Label shows:**

* **PnL** — current profit/loss in USDT
* **ROE%** — profit/loss as a percentage of your margin
* Label color updates in real time: green when in profit, red when in loss

**× button on the label:** Click to close the position immediately at market price.

***

#### Stop Loss Line

A red line below your entry (for Long) or above it (for Short).

The label shows the SL price and a **×** button to remove the SL.

***

#### Take Profit Lines

A green line for each take-profit level. If you set multiple TPs, each gets its own line.

Label shows: **TP1**, **TP2**… with price and the percentage of the position that closes at that level.

When a TP is hit, the label fades and shows a filled status — it cannot be edited or dragged after that.

***

#### Pending Limit Line

When you place a **Limit order** that has not filled yet, a yellow line appears on the chart:

```
[≡] Buy Limit | 94,250.00 | 0.005 BTC | 20x  [×]
```

* **Buy / Sell** — direction
* **Limit** — order type
* Price, quantity, leverage
* **\[×]** — cancel the pending order

This line can be **dragged** to change the limit price (see drag section below).

***

### Dragging Lines to Adjust Prices

**SL lines**, **TP lines**, and **pending Limit lines** can all be dragged directly on the chart.

**How to tell a line is draggable:** The cursor changes to a vertical resize arrow ↕ when you hover over the label.

**How to drag:**

1. Click and hold (or touch on mobile) on the label.
2. Drag up or down to your new target price.
3. While dragging, a price tag appears on the **right price axis** showing the exact price the line will snap to.
4. Release — the updated order is sent automatically.

> A drag must move at least 3 pixels to register as intentional (prevents accidental drags from a normal click).

**While the update is processing:** The line turns to a dashed style and the label dims briefly — this means the system is waiting for Binance to confirm the new price. No action needed.

### Label States

| State      | Visual                                                           |
| ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Normal     | Solid line, full opacity, × button active                        |
| Processing | Dashed line, dimmed, spinner on label — waiting for confirmation |
| Filled     | 50% opacity, cannot drag, no × button                            |

### Candle Markers (Entry / TP / SL dots)

In addition to the horizontal lines, the system paints small **markers directly onto the candles**:

* **Buy/Sell badge** on the entry candle — a colored circle: green for Long, red for Short
* **TP hit dot** on the candle where take profit filled — small green circle
* **SL hit dot** on the candle where stop loss triggered — small red circle

These markers let you see at a glance where each trade entered and exited without opening any list.

***

### PnL Shading Zone

While a position is open, a tinted band is drawn between the entry price and the current price:

* **Light green** — position is in profit
* **Light red** — position is in a loss

The band updates in real time with price.

***

### Notes

* The **Entry line is not draggable** — only SL, TP, and pending Limit lines can be moved.
* Clicking **×** on the Entry line closes the **full position** at market price immediately — confirm your intent before clicking.
* SL and TP lines only appear when the **Live orders** layer is enabled. Entry/exit dot markers on candles only appear when the **Open orders** layer is enabled.
