Chart Settings

To change the default chart settings you can go to Settings from the chart drop down menu:

Startup Chart

This page defines how the price line in a new intraday or history chart will be drawn. The alternatives are Line chart, Bar chart and Candlestick. You can change these options in an existing chart by right-clicking and selecting Chart Type.

Time Period

This page defines the default time period and resolution for a new intraday or history chart window. To change this in an existing chart, use the Resolution and Period buttons on the chart toolbar.

Axis

In this page you can set your preference for chronologic time-axis for new history charts. You can also indicate if the value axis should be rescaled to always show horizontal lines or not. To change these settings in an existing chart, right-click on the bottom axis and select Symbol Parameters.

Grids

You can decide if new charts should have horizontal and vertical grid lines by default. To change these settings in an existing chart, right-click on the axis and select Show grid lines.
