Hello,

I would like to look at more data to review oscillators. Is there a way to increase the number of bars a chart will display? It seems there is a maximum of around ~1,200 bars. 4.5 years of daily bars or 2.5 months of hourly bars.

Being able to look at the hourly oscillator for a year at a time would be great.

Thanks

Correct, I can download more hourly data, but I can't display it all.

My chart file currently has hourly data from Feb 2, 2018 back to Nov. 30, 2010. However, I can only zoom out far enough to see about 2.5 months of hourly data, Feb 2, 2018 to Nov. 22, 2017. Or I can scroll far left and see Nov. 30, 2010 to Feb. 22, 2011.

Hope this helps.

OK we understand. The only thing you can do in this case is to increase the time frame per bar:
