Can I trade from 6H, 8H and 12H charts with NT8?

[Kennard]

Hello,

I could not find this information anywhere so would like to ask if it is possible to create 6,8 and 12 hour chart on NT8.

Thank you

Hello Kennard,

Thanks for your post.

You can change instruments or intervals by pressing a letter or number key in a selected chart. Within the window that appears, you can change the instrument, interval, or chart type.


For hours, specify the amount of time in minutes. For example, to make an 8 hour chart you would type, 480M and press the Enter key.

I have included a link to our help guide page on working with price data. Please expand the section labeled how to change a data series.

Hello,

How do I add interval settings for daily, weekly, and monthly with appropriate look back periods?

Hello 17311ravi,


Thank you for your post.


In the interval drop down menu of your chart, select configure. Select the interval type you want and click add in the Values area. Then enter a value for that interval and click Ok.
Finally, you can increase the amount of days loaded in your chart by right clicking on your chart > data series > Increase the number of days to load. Click OK.
