Chart time periods

[jeronymite]

Is there a reason why the chart time periods one can choose from do not include "hour"? I know it's just "60 minutes". But would it not be sensible to include "hour" as one of the periods?

Thanks.

Jeronymite,

Really appreciate the feature requests and will continue to log them as you post them. However I want to make sure we are both on the same page. Beta is for getting our existing feature set stable so we can make a production release and resolve any user acceptance issues on the project itself. New features/improvements likely won't be reviewed until we get closer to a production release. Its still great to keep sending them in since we will review them as we get to them, I just want to set the expectation correctly to not expect action on these near term as it's not our current priority.

Suggestion ID on this one is #387

Thanks.

Many thanks, Brett. Fully understood and fully support that approach!

To add to it - Why aren't there more options for DAY or WEEK other than 1?

But of course, compared to what NT7 LOST over NT6.5 in this selection - this new setup in NT8 has been sent from God.

I think in NT6.5, there were drop-down options for Range, Renko, etc. These can be selected in NT7 only by typing on the chart or in the Data Series box but I never understood why the drop-downs were removed.

Also, why is it 'forbidden' in NT7 to have two identical time charts, as this can be very helpful?

Yes, you can 'cheat' by loading 1 min and 60 sec, but there's no way to load, say, 4RE with another 4RE.

Is anything like this in the pipeline?
