I'm aware, that currently Quote Boards do not use chart data, but use the Current Quote data values provided by the data feed.

I there a chance / are there plans, that in the near future, Quote Boards do use chart data or the information defined in the Symbol Settings (the defined End Time)?

The reason I'm asking for that is, that for many markets / underlyings the daily change calculations (absolute and %) are not correct and thus totally useless or even misleading.


I've tried different workarounds but all have their limitations, as there are for example:

1. Spreadsheet Study (new Spreadsheets):
Automatic highlighting of a cell (e.g. when new high/low occurs) is not possible, autocoloring of a spreadsheet value based on +/- is not possible, Last Tick field is not supported within a spreadsheet (only for Quote Spreadsheets).

2. Spreadsheet Study using Excel:
This makes pretty much everything possible in regards of formatting, but the performance is so low/bad, which make a normal working with SC impossible (even with a i7, SSD ... PC).

I've seen quite a few other users stumbling over this problem too. It would be nice if you could find a solution, to provide the correct values for the daily change (based on the defined End Time in the Symbol Settings) in the Quote Board, to make the Quote Board much more valuable than it is right now.
