X and Y-Axis scaling via mouse is awesome

[hstaples]

Just wanted to give a shout for the nice implementation of the scaling feature by clicking and dragging the mouse. I've attended the online charting demos, but never saw this feature in action. NT7 only or was it in NT6?

Hi hstaples,

Thank you for your post, and the kind words.

The scaling of the x and y axis is mostly the same in NinjaTrader 6.5 and 7, but there are some enhancements in NinjaTrader 7, like the ability to keep the scaling the same and move the prices up or down.

Price scale

Can you make constant the price scale in NT6.5? Say you want the price to show .20 or .50 cent intervals.

Hi stratiG,

Thank you for your post.

The scaling in NinjaTrader 6.5 is automatic and will change based on the price bars that are displayed.

As a workaround you could right click and select Indicators. In the Indicators section please use the Constant Lines Indicators. Specify the intervals of the lines. Make sure the Auto-Scale parameter is set to True, and then you can modify the color of those lines to transparent.

This process will have the effect of creating a fixed scaling, but you would need to modify the lines so that the price scale is based on total scale.

Constant horizontal line separation

Ryan... In Ninja6.5 there was a property in the properties section that allowed to set the horizontal grid lines at any interval... say every 4 ticks. How can I do that in Ninja 7?

Thanks

Hi rperez,

Thank you for your post.

In NinjaTrader 7 the horizontal grid lines interval is included in the y-axis properties. If you right click on the y-axis and then select Properties you will see the ability to set those gridlines. This is covered in the help guide section link below, as well.

And once we have the ability to zoom in and out via the mouse wheel it will be even more awesome!
