Wider (O)HLC bars

[shortseller]

after using many different charting softwares over the last years, i finally came to ninjatrader, also because of the zenfire feed.

one thing i pretty PRETTY much miss with NT is the fact, that there are no HLC bars present. the current OHLC bars are way to small and if u want to scale in, you lose pretty much of the chart area by decreasing the area you watch.

i can think of no clearer view than with hlc bars, without the open, like in sierracharts. could this perhaps be seen as request for nt7? (i would be somewhat happy )

see attachment for example.

Hello shortseller,

Thank you for your post.

Yes, you may make the chart bars wider with Alt+Down arrow and to make them thinner use Alt+Up arrow.

I will forward this to our development team for future considerations for HLC bars.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

thanks chris

yes, i have already figured out how to make them wider and how to increase spacing, but imho the result is no good solution, because it steals pretty much of the viewable chart area until the OHLC bars are in a shape that you can see them pretty good.

i only use volume histogram and hlc bars for trading, thats why it is so important to me.
