Dear MetaQuotes team,
Please consider adding a feature to the MT5 desktop platform that mimics the drag-and-drop trading experience available on the MT5 mobile app. Specifically:
-
Drag a line to place a pending Buy or Sell order.
-
Drag and adjust Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) lines visually.
-
Show the floating profit/loss (in pips and currency) next to the TP/SL lines during movement.
-
Allow users to confirm execution after dragging lines, or enable auto-placement.
-
Show ticks when adjusting TP & SL
This would make trading much more intuitive and visually manageable for manual traders on desktop.
Thank you for considering!
