I am looking to change the scale of the the chart values so I can see more prices on the vertical axis and also volume and dates/times etc.. on the horizontal axis? Please see Screenshot- 2 for reference as to what I am currently seeing.

Finally, in Screenshot 1, is there someway to reduce the size of the candlesticks?

Thanks in advance.

You need to reduce the Chart Text font size:
Graphics Settings: Fonts and Text Appearance

And also the Chart Text color it does not look like it is set correctly and is the same as the background. You need to change that:
Graphics Settings

Do you know why those candlesticks are very wide? What is the bar spacing of that chart set to? We cannot tell. That is the number in the lower right of the chart.
