Why is the trading panel semi-transparent and in poor resolution? How to fix this? I use metatrader5 on Mac OSView attachment 25102
The resolution is correct. To make it so that the chart is displayed behind the panel, you have untick the 'Chart on foreground' checkbox in your chart's properties:

Thanks. I meant about the resolution, as if the trading panel quality worse than the terminal itself. as if the metatrader is displayed in 1080p, and the trading panel is in 480p

Hello friends, good day, I trade shares with the Tradeview Maekets broker and I use the position sizer tool to trade them.

During the time I have been using it I have had some problems with the calculation of the positions, since they are spot stocks that are operated in a Metatrader 5 netting account, the problem is that sometimes it does not give an exact calculation of the volume of shares in position due to the risk that I want to use based on the leverage of the account, which for this is a maximum of 1:5

The positions in this account mainly cannot be applied stop loss, especially trading stocks with 1:1 leverage and it is not always exact with the calculation for these in the last version

From your post, it's not exactly clear what the problem is and what the leverage has to do with it (it's not used in the risk-based position size calculation). Could you please show some examples with screenshots of what is going wrong?

Could you please help me to understand what the issue is? Thanks

The red color there means that you will get a margin call if you execute the trade. As to why exactly you are going to get margin-called, you should consult your broker's conditions.

Hi, I don't know if this is possible.
A BE line either when opening a trade or after. If the price gets below or above that BE line it will move the SL to BE.

I saw that there is a BE line option ( it never shows on my side) and that the SL to BE will have the commission in mind (nice)! But I think I am unware if this functionality is in place or how to proper use the BE method on specific price/line

You need to set some value in the Breakeven field on the Trading tab for this to work.

What sort value and how would it would it work? Before opening the trade? (I added 5, and show lines etc and did not see the BE line)

Or is it after you open the trade?

The value is the number of points of profit when the SL has to be moved to breakeven. You can enter it either before after the trade is executed - this doesn't matter. The BE line (if enabled via input parameters) will show up after the trade is open.
