I am trying to load the Japanese Yen U contract for the CME to my chartbook, but it just stays on the loading screen. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Open a new separate chart for that symbol without any studies and not change the symbol of an existing chart.

Could you please share any information you have for making a new separate chart because I am not able to locate this option.

Thanks

Hello, just on a side note I was able to follow the same process to change to the Nasdaq but not to Japanese Yen U. I have attached an uploaded photo.

Thanks,

You should not be having issues with either the J7 or 6J symbols. The following link is our charts for each of these symbols. The J7 is lightly traded, but there is still data. The 6J has much more data.

Let us know if you are still having issues with the data and we will have to dig deeper.

Do not change the symbol of a chart to one of these symbols. And make sure there is no Study Collection which automatically is applied. That can cause problems.

The problem is most likely related to this:
High CPU Usage | Inactive User Interface | Poor Performance | Long Time to Load Chart Data | Charts Reloading Often: 30.23 - Chart Tick Size and Volume at Price Processing
