  Hi Bullan,

  I am not sure to correctly understand your request.

  Do you wish to focus your chart on the price scale in order to avoid to get compressed by indicators?

  In this case, please activate the option “Vertical autoscaling” as shown in the image. If I misunderstood your request, please indicate more information.

  

  Best,

  Ulrike

  Thanks Ulrike, I had a try of that and I don’t think that is quite what I was after – sorry, I will be a bit clearer – if I was looking at the DOW and at any one time I only wanted say 400pts being shown (i.e say from 23700 to 24100) I want to be able to fix the price scale so that at any time only 400pts is being shown on the chart – I can move this up and down the price scale by dragging the chart up or down but want to avoid every time I come back to that chart that it is now showing say for example 800pts – I want to fix the righthand price axis to show whatever I specify initially (by zooming in and out when first setting it or dragging price up and down to get the right scale).  Hopefully this makes sense and thanks a lot

  I echo what Bullan has asked for and I have long found it similarly frustrating.

  The Issue is caused if there have been large Range bars in the past followed by short range bars and so the scale fixes itself to show the full long range bars, whereas I want to see the detail of recent short range bars, but still see the overall price curve over 100 bars etc

  I get around it by reducing the number of bars I show on the chart down to 25. but this is far from ideal.

  I only quickly scan read Bullan’s posts, so apologies if above does not describe the same Issue?
