I have traced the source of charts going blank to an overlay study. In stead of seeking your help in figuring this situation out, I think it is better to seek your opinion on which overlay study is best for the following scenario.

I have a group of five charts. Four charts are 3 minute candlestick charts. Each of these four charts has a different symbol.

In the fifth chart I want line charts comparing the four symbols but with a time frame of 5 seconds. Which one of your overlay studies is the right one to use?

Do I also need 5 second individual symbol charts open? I prefer not to do this simply to avoid extra charts.

I do want all four lines on the 5 second chart to be updated continuously in real time.

You will want to use the Study/Price Overlay study:

If you want the overlaid graphs to also be 5 seconds per bar, you do need to have separate charts for them open with them set to 5 seconds per bar.

In a future release, this will not be necessary, but for now you can always hide those charts with Window >> Hide Window.
