"I have a zoom issue in MetaTrader 5. When I zoom in, the objects I've drawn on the chart disappear, and when I zoom out, they reappear. This has become very problematic for me. Please guide me. Thank you. Version 5, Build 5836."

The issue of objects disappearing when zooming in on MetaTrader 5 (MT5) is typically caused by object property settings, specifically the "Timeframes" tab.

Here is how to fix it:

  1. Open Object Properties: Right-click on the object (e.g., the orange box or line) that is disappearing and select [Object Name] Properties.

  2. Check Timeframe Settings: Navigate to the Timeframes tab.

  3. Adjust Visibility: Ensure that the checkbox for "All timeframes" is selected. If specific timeframes are unchecked, the object will hide when you zoom or switch views that fall outside those selected settings.

If this does not resolve the issue, it may be a display bug related to your specific Build 5836 . Ensure your platform is fully updated, and if the problem persists, it is recommended to provide a screenshot on the official MQL5 Traders Forum so moderators can investigate your specific configuration.

"No, this is not the issue. Could you please tell me how I can post this problem on the official forum?"

Unfortunately I can't reproduce this behaviour.

Is this rectangle drawn manually or by code ?

And if you draw an other rectangle, is it doing the same ?

"I kindly request your assistance. This issue is preventing me from trading properly. Until recently, everything was working fine. I have no idea why this problem suddenly appeared. I have searched extensively but could not find any solution — it seems this specific issue has not been raised anywhere before.
