But I can surely expect from a software that it is operable.
No you cannot. Based upon how you have configured the chart and the performance of your system you can have a problem. We can tell you that chart will present a very heavy graphics load.

Anyway, we do see what the problem is and we will implement a patch for this. Basically the chart is being redrawn continuously as you are moving the drawing around. That can happen for rectangle drawings when it is displaying text but there is no text in this case so we will put a small optimization in. But you can expect this issue if there is text.

The difference is that you have a lot of bars and a lot of price levels. We talk about this here:
