"Space to the right" possible with Ninja Trader?

[M_ichel]

Hi all.

Is it possible to set up charts in Ninja Trader (7) so that the current bar is not at the extreme right edge of the "plot area", but offset to the left, leaving some white space between it and the "axis" line?

Other charting platforms call this "space to the right" or "margin area".

Thanks.

Hello M_ichel,
Thanks for your post.
Right click on the chart and select Properties
Adjust the Right Side Margin setting to you desired value
Select OK

Great, Brandon!

Out of curiosity, what are the units for that "displacement"? Pixels?

(I will read the manual this (long) weekend. I promise!)

Thanks.

Hello M_ichel,
Thanks for your reply.
That is correct, it is pixels.

Can this be done in code and adjusted dynamically?

Hello mballagan,

Thank you for your post.

This can be done in code using the following:

ChartControl.BarMarginRight = 100; // set margin to 100
