Increase price axis

[Dagamos]

As you can see in the attached chart, the right side axis goes up in increments of 5 ticks. Is there a way to change this to every tick? I use another platform to chart with and the NT charts are always vastly different in the way bars form so I can never use NT to actually chart. I think it may because of the scale.

Thanks for posting.

By default the scale will be set to an automatic scaling so the bars always stay in the displayed range of the chart. Since the range of an instrument varies widely from day to day, the increments will change based on the range of the instrument being charted. The larger the range, the larger the increments.

You can right click the Y axis to change this to a fixed scale and set the grid lines to your liking, but this will disable automatic scaling so you will need to manually scale your chart as price fluctuates.

Please let me know if I may assist further.

I tried that but it it is still a bad platform to chart on. With a horrible native zoom feature along with other issues charting on NT is like I stepped back into the 90's. I'll just have to keep using Think or Swim to chart and NT for execution for now.

Hello,

If you're looking to zoom in/out on the entire chart and not a specific area, you can left click in the time scale and move left to right. In case you are interested I've linked to our help guide below which goes over different charting features:

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

I understand that you can zoom by using the time scale, but that doesn't help me much. It's ok, I'll continue to use the better product for what I need, it's obvious that NT will never be a solid all-in-one product and I've settled with that.
