Hi, I’ll apologise in advance for this question.
Ok so i really want to learn SC, it is NOT easy, but when people say it is the best, it is worth trying, so that’s me.
So i want to trade momentum breaks, typically a/hours and early session.
I get a stock on a scanner, type it in toe a chart,i have 3 charts linked 10sec, 1 min and a daily.

Here is where I’m questioning ?

It can take a few seconds, more maybe, but it feels like forever in comp to other platforms - TV, tradeZero etc
By the time it loads, the move/entry has passed.

By no means am i saying it is SC fault or that it is inferior in any way.
I understand it has to download the data etc and maybe that is teh question right there ?


Is my settings loading too much data ?

Please provide some assistance for me, i would, based on many high level reviews like to persist with SC, but right now its not working for me :(

Ian.
