Post From: Transact ATCharts demo

Is this AT Charts different in how it deals with historical charts?

Example (charting the Russell 2000):

With AT Charts it seems that I can only look at historicals with a timeframe of 1 day or greater. If I choose historical for this symbol, the symbol field under Chart Settings changes to RJH14 which then only provides a limited amount of history (and creates "RJH14.dly" file).

I'm aware of your new continuous futures contract functionality so I suppose I could activate that, but does forcing the symbol field to RJ# basically do the same thing? Is RJ# back adjusted?


With my Sierra direct subscription, I was able to take RJ# and look at increments that were intraday (creating "RJ#.scid"). This doesn't seem to be available with AT Charts. So is intraday history then only available thru whatever history the TransAct servers provide using their symbols?


Also, TransAct seems to limit the amount of real-time symbols available for smaller account sizes. How does one then obtain intraday data on additional non-real-time symbols (delayed, historical, etc).

Thx.
