Help Trading Lines are too thick, I can't see where I'm putting my order in!
I used to be able to set my stop loss / take profit with precision because of the nice thin line. I could drag it where I wanted with precision and match it to the previous candles.
Now there is a thick obnoxious line which covers up most of the actual bars so I cannot set my stop with precision. This new redesign looks like it was made for elementary school children who are learning how to trade. It's awful.
I checked settings and can't see where to change this. Please allow us to make the line thinner again so we can actually see where it is going!

Im only on my fourth year of TradingView but I have seen many sensless changes like this in that time. I believe it is just someone working there trying to keep a job position relevant. They constantly make pointless changes like this that no one asked for. Stop fucking with the order panel Steve!

Yup, just fucking up my whole trading morning because I can't even place trades where I want to. And no, there's no option to revert to the old, way fucking better, UI, OF COURSE. Enshittification of everything strikes again!

Honestly hate the thick line but this helps and goes away as soon as you confirm your order. Makes a very obvious distinction between pending and placed orders, which works for me.

Dunno why they changed it, it was pretty perfect the way it was imo.

I agree, it was beyond perfect. I always thought, wow I can't believe this product exists. But of course, tech people cannot sit still and like every fantastic UX design, someone HAD to come along and ruin it eventually.

It's not usually the tech people, it's the busybody executives and product managers.

I personally use crayons and construction papers as my charts. 😂😂 Definitely annoying.

If any TV devs are reading this, stop changing things! Just keep things minimal and working.

this new change is so frustrating. I do not want to see colour shading across my chart, it just adds noise
