Hi,

I've been searching high and low for anyone with answers to this. Others have had the same problem but there are no answers so far. I would like some bread and butter patterns to show up automatically while trading CL on TOS, so I go to the upper right corner to the "Patterns" menu, select "Show Patterns" and then edit the list to make sure that I've chosen the ones I want to see. When I hit apply and close out the window, I get no patterns even though there are several obvious ones (such as channels) that I can see.

Does anyone else have this issue and/or know of a fix? I've tried all kinds of things such as adjusting the sensitivity of various studies, but to no avail.

Thank you for your time!

nmaxwelltrade,
A lot of features don't work as expected in TOS. And the normal answer by support is that the features are provided by third parties and TD doesn't have control over when these issues will be fixed.
I know this isn't much help, but it is the state of the platform these days unfortunately.

Yeah that's basically what they told me through support. It's all good, I found some good stuff through Fun with think or swim that does exactly what I needed! Thanks for the reply
