Exploring New Features in TabTrader 6.1 for Android
Android 6.1 release, August 2023
This update introduces several new chart shapes, enhanced chart zoom functionality, support for device-specific biometrics, alerts sorting, and much more. Let's explore each of the new additions in detail.
New Chart Shapes
Measure tools
The “measure tools” chart shapes allow users to measure change in price and duration between two points on the chart. Unlike the regular measure tool which is meant to disappear after use, the measure tools chart shapes are persistent, providing users with a continuous visual reference. These shapes come in three varieties - Date and Price Measure, Date Measure, and Price Measure.
Path
The path chart shape enables users to draw a connected sequence of straight line segments on the chart. It can be used to visually represent trend lines, support and resistance levels, or other relevant patterns to aid in technical analysis and trading decision-making.
Horizontal Ray
The horizontal ray chart shape is a type of ray shape that is always parallel to the x-axis, without an adjustable angle.
Elliott Waves
Elliott Waves chart shapes are designed to assist traders in visually representing and analyzing Elliott Wave patterns on the price chart. There are five main types of Elliott Waves chart shapes currently available in the app: the Elliott Impulse Wave (12345), Elliott Correction Wave (ABC), Elliott Triangle Wave (ABCDE), Elliott Triple Combo Wave (WXYXZ), and Elliott Double Combo Wave (WXY).
Chart Zoom Gestures
We have improved the accuracy and stability of the “Pinch zoom” gesture and added support for two new ones: "Double tap" and "Double tap and drag".
Double Tap
By double tapping on the desired location on the chart users can quickly zoom in on specific areas of interest.
Double Tap and Drag
The Double Tap and Drag gesture allows for convenient control over the chart zoom level. Start by double tapping on the desired location of the chart and keep your finger on the screen. Then, drag your finger up or down to adjust the zoom level according to your preference.
Enhanced Transaction Details Overview
TabTrader Wallet's transaction approval and result dialogs for sending funds, placing orders on decentralized exchanges, settling funds, and canceling DEX orders now provide users with a more comprehensive overview of transaction details.
Improved Handling of Rectangle Chart Shape and Measure Tool
We have improved the manipulation features for two essential charting elements: the rectangle chart shape and the measure tool.
- Both the rectangle chart shape and the measure tool now support non-proportionate resizing. By dragging their sides, users can adjust their width and height independently.
- The measure tool now has handles for proportionate resizing in all four corners.
- The measure tool can now be moved within the chart by long-pressing and dragging its coordinate origin.
Background Settings for Fibonacci Shapes
Users are now able to customize the background of Fibonacci shapes, namely Fibonacci Arcs and Fibonacci Levels. They can adjust the transparency level to their preference and choose a single background color for all Fibonacci areas within the shape.
Enhanced Biometric Authentication Support
TabTrader for Android now supports proprietary biometric authentication systems from Xiaomi, Samsung, OnePlus, Meizu, Prestigio, Huawei, Honor, and Oppo manufacturers. This empowers users with a wider range of Android devices to use their preferred biometric authentication method when logging into TabTrader.
Alerts Sorting
Users can now sort their alerts in the alert list by time of creation, activation, and triggering.
API Setup Assistance
The API key setup page for each exchange now includes a link to a Help Center article with comprehensive guidance on how to generate API keys for that specific exchange.
Accounting for the Exchange Fee when Placing an Order for Maximum Balance
In the order form, when a user places an order for the maximum available balance by tapping the "Max" button, the "Total" field now displays the amount, including the exchange fee.
Adding Instrument to a Watchlist from the Instrument Page
Users can now add an instrument to a watchlist directly from the instrument’s page. Tap the star icon in the action bar and select the desired watchlist from the pop-up bottom sheet.
