In NT 7 v.2, I found a bug using period templates.
Basically, when you save a period template and apply it using the Toolbar menu, it does not work. However, the template is applied correctly when using keystrokes.
To duplicate the problem:
- Load any instrument onto a Daily chart using the default settings
- Open the Data Series menu to edit the 'Day' Period Type template
- Change "Load data based on" to Bars from Days.
- Change "Bars to Load" to 1000 from 50
- Right click and select "Set Default for 'Day' Period Type"
- Click OK
- Change period using the Toolbar menu to Weekly
- Change period back to Daily using Toolbar menu - you will see it will load up 365 Days of data, irrespective of your previously set 'Day' settings.
- Now change period to Weekly again
- Change period back to Daily using the 1D keystroke combination - you will see that your 1000-bar settings for the Day period will be applied correctly.
- Conclusion: Applying Period Type settings with the Toolbar does not work.
Stopped
