Viewing and navigating on a chart is made unnecessarily fiddly by the fact that there's no option to make the crosshair snap to price bars. For the most part it's only slight issue, but it's much more of an annoyance when using the Global Crosshair on charts of several different timeframes.
Say you have a 1-minute chart and a 15-minute chart at moderate zoom. When moving the crosshair from the 9:15 1-minute bar to the 9:16 1-minute bar, the global crosshair on the 15-minute chart should "jump" to the next bar since that's actually where the chart is printing once the 9:16 bar opens. But instead it stays mostly over the 9:15 15-minute bar, only slowly moving off it as you scroll the crosshair to the right.
This is especially annoying with tick and volume charts, since it's not intuitively obvious where the slower-timeframe bar boundaries are located on the faster-timeframe chart. Leads to lots of clicking and scrolling bar and forth to compare bars times.
Please add the ability to snap the crosshair to price bars, much as drawing tools can be snapped to price bars.
