Feature Request

[Sameer Abuwak]

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:

1. Drag a line to place a pending Buy or Sell order.

2. Drag and adjust Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) lines visually.

3. Show the floating profit/loss (in pips and currency) next to the TP/SL lines during movement.

4. Allow users to confirm execution after dragging lines, or enable auto-placement.
   

5. 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!

Can we have a alert feature on the mobile app?

also can the items we add to on the chart on one devic3 get synced across all platforms?

The mobile trading experience needs more development and improvement. The current version feels limited compared to desktop trading, especially for active traders and scalpers.

Here are some features that would greatly improve the app:

1. Add an option to set one Take Profit target for all open positions at once.
2. Add a “Close All Open Positions” button directly from the chart screen for faster execution.
3. Add a quick trading/scalping mode where traders can preset Stop Loss and Take Profit values, and they are automatically applied instantly when opening a trade.

These features would make mobile trading much faster, easier, and more professional.
