Feature Request: Add a Keyboard Shortcut (Hotkey) to Toggle Execution Marks/Labels

Hello TradingView Team,

I would like to propose a feature request to improve the efficiency of trade reviewing and chart journaling: adding a customizable keyboard shortcut (hotkey) to toggle Execution Marks and Execution Labels on the chart.

The Problem:

Currently, to view where trades were executed, a trader must manually click the chart settings gear icon, navigate to the Trading tab, and check/uncheck the boxes for "Execution Marks" and "Execution Labels."

While these marks are incredibly valuable for reviewing trades and taking screenshots for a trading journal, leaving them on permanently can clutter the chart and become highly distracting during live price action. Because of this, I find myself constantly digging through the settings menu to turn them on for a quick screenshot, and then digging through the menus again to turn them off so I can focus back on the market. This repetitive process disrupts the trading workflow.

The Suggested Solution:

It would be an incredible quality-of-life improvement if TradingView introduced a dedicated keyboard shortcut (or an option to bind a custom hotkey in the Key Shortcuts menu) to instantly hide or show Execution Marks and Labels.

Just like we can quickly toggle the drawing toolbar or hide all drawings with a single click/shortcut, being able to instantly flash our execution arrows on the screen for a screenshot and then hide them immediately with a hotkey would make the post-trade analysis workflow seamless.

Thank you for considering this request to make the platform even more optimized for active traders!

Feature Request: Allow Customizable Thickness/Width for Candle Wicks

Subject: Feature Request: Add thickness/width adjustment settings for candle wicks (similar to drawing lines)

Hello TradingView Team and Community,

I would like to suggest a quality-of-life feature enhancement for chart customization, specifically regarding candle wicks.

Currently, in the Chart Settings -> Symbol menu, we have excellent control over customizing the colors of the candle body, borders, and wicks. However, candle wicks are permanently set to a very thin default width.

The Problem:

When using multiple indicators on a chart (such as custom overlapping zones, Fair Value Gaps), these indicators frequently overlap the candle wicks. Because the wicks are so thin, they often get completely hidden or obscured by the indicator overlays. This makes it very difficult to see the exact highs and lows of the price action in real-time without constantly toggling indicator visibility on and off.

The Suggested Solution:

It would be incredibly helpful to add a wick thickness option right next to the wick color picker in the Symbol settings.

Ideally, this could use the exact same familiar functionality found in the drawing tools: a choice of four thickness levels (1px, 2px, 3px, and 4px). Allowing users to increase the wick thickness to 2px or 3px would significantly improve chart readability and ensure that crucial price action remains visible, even when technical indicators are plotted directly over the candles.

Thank you in advance for your time, consideration, and continuous dedication to improving the platform for traders.
