Hi, I've seen this a few times where the chart should not be showing Entry or Take Profits types of visualizations, and yet they are there. All orders were entered manually on the JForex platform, so there's no intervention by automated modules causing issues.

If you right-click on the object, for example BID or TP "phantom" graphic mark, you get the context menu to Edit or Cancel but it does nothing and generates no messages, and no exceptions in the console log.

I made a video showing this but, then, after having made the video, I accidentally discovered that if you just double-clicked a "phantom" order line, and dragged it up or down, that it simply disappeared. And it disappeared for all charts, which was what I wanted !!

So this may be a workaround for those of us who have tried clearing chart objects, deleting and recreating charts, etc. A workaround may simply be to double-click these "phantom" visualization lines and just drag them into oblivion.

Clearly there is a bug in here somewhere, but not that easy to track down. If we have a simple workaround to get rid of these false order visualization objects, then that's at least something. Double-click and drag them up or down and they appear to disappear :) They disappear across all charts on the same instrument, which is even better !! That's what I would want.

So I'm going to post this reference to a video, and I'm very sorry if it isn't very clear. It does show 2 phantom chart objects, but it does not show the "double-click and drag" which makes them disappear in the video itself. I discovered that accidentally after finishing up the video, which was lucky to find a workaround.

I will keep this video up for a few weeks at least:

Thanks for looking into this,
