Small inconsistency with Control Bars and Custom Timeframes

1D, Weekly and Monthly are already defaults. To add 2D, 3D, 4D or 5D one must make take 'custom period' from the left column and choose the custom period for the control bar.

Once done, this reveals a slight niggle in that the default ones call Historical Data (very quick loading), whereas the customs still naturally pulls from intraday data, revealing problem 1) load time inconsistencies and 2) messing up the "Adjust Proportional with Bar Period" (i.e. going from 2 days to 15min does not sync well at all)

Simple solution would be to add a few more options into the default periods.. as we know historical charts can only go in integers of 1 period minimum, of daily or weekly or monthly. Adding 2d, 3d, 4d, 5d makes sense.

However this is not a big problem so please make it lowest priority, can easily be worked around. Thanks.

We will take care of this with a new custom bar period setting for the number of days per bar for historical daily data.

Perfect. Obviously have a few of them as realistically there are only really 5 or so to choose from.
