I'd like to open a symbol and not have it load more than a day's worth of data. How do I set this up? And how can I manually delete all the excessive data? Thank you |

I have a chart where I want no more than 1 day of data because I use the Study/Price Overlay study and reference that chart and only want the study to show on my main chart for one day. When first opening and loading the chart it loaded one day. Then each subsequent day would attach itself (so to speak). When I researched I discovered (unless I am missing something) there is no way to stop this accumulation of data except for one thing. That is to hit the "Insert" key and it will reload only one day. So under the Chart Settings set the (Use Number of Days to Load) and Days to Load to 1 and each day hit the insert key. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2018-10-16 16:47:37
