View Full Version : NT6 Drop down menu-data series

When I have a tick chart open, and I try to use the drop-down menu in the upper left-hand corner to change the data series, it doesn't seem to work under some circumstances. Usually I can change the tick charts to volume charts and v/v, but I can't change either tick charts or volume charts into daily charts. The resulting chart is simply blank. Same with Custom if I request daily charts from the menu.

This might very well be an unreasonable thing to ask NT6 to do. Perhaps you just have to start with the type of chart that you want, and can only change the number, not the type (i.e. 144 tick to 233 tick, but not to daily). Just wanted to do my duty as a Beta-tester and let you know.

LG,

Thanks for taking the time to report this. Daily data is supported only if the service provider you connect to supports historical daily data. I suspect this is the case. Can you tell me who you connect to?

You can approximate daily bars by creating a 405 minute minute chart for example.

Zenfire. They should have daily data.

Zen-Fire only supports tick and minute bar data, no daily data.

Well, that would be the reason, then!
Thanks.
