Default Inidicator to default to bars back on chart

I have a custom indicator that I am using that I wish to load 200 bars back when I open the chart and not have the chart to default to days back...

Is there some method in my custom indicator that I can add to force it to use 200 bars back as opposed to days back which the chart defaults to?

The Market Analyzers seem to hold 200 bars back but want to keep my charts in syncs with 200 bars too and not days back (default on the chart!)


Thanks

Hello mefTrader,

Thank you for your post.

Yes, you can change the default look back period by going to Tools-->Options-->Data tab-->Chart default look back period(days)-->Set the value for the type of chart-->Click Ok.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

This is for days back i.e 15days back on a minute chart

I would like to be able to set it to 200 bars on a minute chart. Can I do that?

Unfortunately the only option available to set Bars back for a Minute chart is within the Format Data Series window at this time. I will forward this to our development team for future considerations.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
