New Measure feature under Drawings

[Guest HellPhantom]

Feature that would allow you determine how much a share has risen or fallen quickly. Drag a line from one point to another and would give you the % difference and also the steps to get there. This feature already exists on many graphs. 

 

I would really like to see such a feature added, I have to always do a small calculation to get the % and amount difference. This is such a small but very useful feature that i really use a lot.

 

 

An example of how this feature works can be seen on https://www.dailyfx.com website on any of their graphs.

on the left hand side there is a ruler and you use Shift+ left click and drag what you need.

 

the following is a link also to their site with a link to a Tencent graph where this can be tested.

Hi 

 

Welcome to the IG community and thanks for sharing your idea.

 

The measuring feature has been a topic that has come up in the past and it is indeed available on the advanced platform we offer called ProRealTime. This can be accessed through the Tools menu on the IG platform and gives traders access to an advanced and fully customisable platform with over 100 indicators! Below is some more information about it.

I hope that helps!
