i use the same chart, same settings, same of number of days but when i click on say eurusd or eurgbp, it literally takes a second or two to load the data but when i click(and only) on gbpusd, it takes quite a while(say 10 or 15 sec) to load the data. why? how can i overcome that? i reiterate this happens for gbpusd only.
also, i know i asked this a year or two ago, but can we load on own icon files for toolbar buttons? is that a reasonable request and how long would it take?
cheers

This has to do with the amount of data in the data file. We have updated help topic 30.1 to explain this:

uhm...you know i ve been using sierra for a few years and am aware of most these settings. however i did reduce no of days and intraday storage time to higher seconds but that dont make a difference. i only have one chart and same setting for all symbols and no study. i click on different symbols on a quote board which is linked to the chart and load and display that symbol. all setting is the same for all symbols, chart setting/days to load (set to 1500)/ data setting (set to 1 sec) but to be exact when i click or load eurgbp or eurusd takes less than a sec but when i click on gbpusd quickest time ive recorded is 6 sec. i know it isnt much but it loads those two in a sec or almost on demand whereas for any gbp pair takes a noticeable while.

If you have increased the Intraday Data Storage Time Unit, then re-download the data with Edit >>Delete All Data and Download in the chart, to reduce the data load time.

There are no plans to support custom icons at this time.
