Dear SierraChart Team,

I know one can easily see if the chart shows actual/ live data by looking at the green/red text in the lower right corner of the chart. And I also know about the feature to disable scrolling by mouse wheel.

Just if I have many charts open, I might lose overview of all chart status.

Could you integreate a function that disallows the chart from scrolling and has the chart always on the latest available data?

There are some things you can do to prevent most of the scrolling options.

1) Turn off the scroll wheel options of the pointer device. Refer to the following:
General Settings Window: Scroll Wheel Setting (Global Settings >> General Settings >> GUI >> Scroll)

2) Turn off the Scrollbar support for the chart. Refer to the following:
Chart Menu: Show Scrollbar (Chart menu)

This would then only leave the arrow keys or the Hand tool as the ways to scroll the chart.

Thanks I am aware of these options.
Also can scroll by using the pointer tool when Scrollbars are disabled - I like this feature.

Still an option to completly lock the chart and set it to the newest data would increase comfortabilty and "trade safety".
So you can lock those charts you setup only once and then only observe.
