Right. Something interesting happened this morning. I turned my computer on. I opened Sierra Charts and opened the chartbook in question. This time, it loaded in about 68 seconds. While it was loading, I noticed that the historical data appeared to download several times ( the white box that pops up with the loading percentage, chart symbol and the click to cancel button that appears when the chartbook is first opened ). I then closed the chartbook and reopened it. This time it loaded much faster than the first, in about 32 seconds. I closed Sierra Charts completely. I reopened Sierra Charts and opened the chartbook. The chartbook still loaded in about 32 seconds. This is a big change from before. I then turned closed Sierra Charts and turned the computer off. Several minuets later, I turned the computer back on and opened Sierra Charts. I waited for a few seconds, then opened the chartbook. It loaded in about 32 seconds still. Changing the GDI pens appears to work wonders for the loading speed, at least on my end. Perhaps you can continue to tweak them with the spirit of testing its' impact ( if any ) on the loading speed of the chartbook(s). Thank you again.
