Background: def (click to change) opacity XX%
To set a custom background for all coin charts, click the label "Background: def (click to change) opacity XX%", choose a file from your computer, and click Open. Background transparency can be adjusted using the slider below. To reposition the background on the chart, hold Shift and drag it with the left mouse button.
When this checkbox is enabled, a double-click on the Panic Sell button is required to activate it. This helps avoid accidental activation from a single click.
☐ Split control zones
When this checkbox is enabled, the control areas will be split: the chart control area will be on the left, and the order control area will be on the right.
☐ New charts on top
When this checkbox is enabled, newly opened charts will be placed above existing ones.
☐ Update chart’s caption
When this checkbox is enabled, the chart title will update with each new detector event. If the checkbox is disabled, the title will retain the first detected event.
☐ Hide charts right panel
When this checkbox is enabled, the right panel will be hidden to expand the chart area. This is especially useful on small screens or when running multiple terminals on one monitor. In the red order book area under the trading pair name, a button will appear: left-click — temporarily expands the panel, right-click — closes the coin chart.
☐ Charts from MoonServer
When this checkbox is enabled, charts will automatically load from Moonbot servers (if the paid Chart Loading module is active). If disabled, charts can still be loaded manually via the Menu on the main screen.
☐ Draw pending order buy price
When this checkbox is enabled, a dashed line will appear near the solid pending order line, showing the price at which the real order will be placed once triggered.
Pending orders spread
This setting is used when placing pending orders and determines the location of the dotted line on which the real Buy order will be placed after crossing the solid line of the pending order.
A dotted line can match a solid line if zeros are indicated in the left and right fields. It can be higher than the solid line if the sum of the values in the left and right fields turns out to be with a plus sign, or lower if it turns out to be with a minus sign.
-
The left field sets a fixed percentage (positive — above, negative — below the pending line)
-
The right field sets an additional value based on the hourly delta of the coin.
Examples:
-
Left: 0%, Right: 0% — the dashed line will overlap the solid line. The real order will be placed exactly where the pending line was
-
Left: +0.5%, Right: 0% — the dashed line will be placed +0.5% above the solid line for all coins
-
Left: –0.5%, Right: 0% — the dashed line will be placed –0.5% below the solid line for all coins
-
Left: +0.5%, Right: +0.2% — for each coin, the dashed line will be above the solid line by the sum: [+0.5%] + (hDelta × [+0.2%]) For example: if hDelta = 10%, the dashed line will be at +2.5%
-
Left: –0.5%, Right: –0.2% — for each coin, the dashed line will be below the solid line by the sum: [–0.5%] + (hDelta × [–0.2%]) For example: if hDelta = 10%, the dashed line will be at –2.5%.
By combining values in these fields, you can adjust the dashed line position as needed.
☐ Only 1 Chart in Full Screen
When this checkbox is enabled, if your active chart is opened in full screen, the terminal will not open new charts over it when new signals are detected. Additionally, existing charts will not be shifted when a new signal chart is opened, provided your mouse cursor is in the order book area.
☐ Draw StopLoss line
When this checkbox is enabled, a stop-loss line will be displayed on the chart.
☐ Chat info in right corner
When this checkbox is enabled, new charts will open in a compressed view showing a 6-hour interval.
☐ Hide PnL (*futures only)
When this checkbox is enabled, PnL information will be hidden from the chart in futures mode.
When this checkbox is enabled, a percentage will be shown under the cursor line in the order book, indicating the distance between the spread and the cursor. A handy tool for evaluating distance to walls and measuring price drop or rise.
When this checkbox is enabled, Buttons Memory functionality activates, used during manual trading. Moonbot will remember the selected Buy and Sell button settings for each specific coin. Once this is enabled, an additional Reset Buttons option appears in the main menu. It resets button settings and applies the most recently changed ones across all coins. To avoid confusion, you can close all charts, set the desired buttons, then press Reset Buttons — all new charts will open using those settings. You can enable or disable Buttons Memory without restarting MoonBot. The button memory data is saved in the file: data\USDT-MarketData.zip (example for the USDT pair), inside each coin’s archive.
