Zoom-out the tick chart? (no candles, no timescales)

Post by jago25 »

I just want to be able to view in and out of the tick chart very quickly with no candles - a pure, fully naked chart.

When I zoom out I would like the only data to be shown that would be visible on this screen resolution.

What software can I do that with?

edit: need to be able to zoom out to weekly equivalent view and bigger, no limit until the data runs out

fix the scales!

There's also no log scale in Empty4. The human mind sees a $100-200 change as greater than $1-2 so this is important, especially for naked trading. All price is emotional and the more emotional the more important this is. It's a really basic thing.

Correction - price as log with normal time is 'semi-log'. The timescale is gregorian calandar and that too would be better plotted against something more aligned with nature.

Hey,

I'm look for some way to have a semi-log chart on Empty4, any possibilities ? I don't find any on google :?

I know it's possible on ninjatrader, but I didn't find a way to have intraday TF for free :roll:

Thanks in advance it you can point me out something about semi-log chart !

Best regards,


Fable

A kind programmer did this.Not sure if it will help but it can't hurt to have a look, I used it for 5 sec charts. It needs to be on all the time though.
