The problem here OP, is your approach, you're side-stepping a very easy technical change for doing things in an inherently slow fashion. It's not reasonable to expect SC to load 100,000s of data points dynamically, redraw all bars, etc. for multiple days/weeks worth of data and expect there to not be a significant delay. This isn't even SC specific either - most chart platforms will run into similar time vs space basic limitations of computing and this is a typical one.
the problem with your response is that you are not viewing the issue from the perspective of a non-programmer. hence why i stated the fact that i am not a programmer. try putting on a different pair of lens.Here's what you need to do:
you obviously did not read my post clearly. that's exactly how i have set things up so nothing of value there. you dont know my trading methodology so dont assume what works for you will work for me. i prefer drilling down on 1 chart for reasons i mentioned above. 1. Create a chartbook for each of the instruments you care about. 2. Create a separate chart for each timeframe for that instrument you care about - and you put it within the same chartbook. 3. Assign [ and ] as hotkeys for prev chart or next chart. 4. Assign alt-[ and alt-] as hotkeys for prev chartbook or next chartbook. 5. Additionally, you can save your study collections from one chart and apply them to others so as to speed up the chart cloning process. i dont want to get into nitty gritty details here. SC did a good job already explaining what i wanted to know. |
