I have a fast computer and SSD drive etc. To load a different time frame on my openEcry forex charts takes a second, it's very fast. To load a different time frame on the forex data through FXCM takes much longer. Is there a good reason for this? I've tried it on charts with indicators and naked charts, with the same results.

Solved. I just downloaded a different version and so far it seems to have fixed the problem. |

This is because there is a lot more data loaded in the chart. You can reduce the Chart >> Chart Settings >> Days to Load setting to speed this up.

I did try that as well and have read that file. Thanks though. It's solved with using a different Sierra instance.

Somehow it's happened again. It was fine for a few days and now the load time for any time frame takes a longer time again. If I get rid of my Sierra3.cfg, chart load time goes back to very fast. I have only 30 days loaded on the chart and it doesn't matter if its a blank chart or filled with stuff.

Refer to help topics 30.1, 30.8, 30.12: Http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/helpdetails30.html It is completely unnecessary to delete the Sierra3.CFG file. That is not the solution. When you delete that file it will change the Intraday Data Storage Time Unit 1 second which will decrease the time to download historical Intraday data and also load chart data.
