    Chart navigation issues

    I'm having a couple of issues navigating the chart when backtesting, I'm wondering if I'm missing something or these are just feature gaps:

    1. How do I navigate to a specific date/time on the chart?

    2a. If I use the context menu on the trade tab and click "Chart" from a trade, instead of navigating to the trade on the chart as one would expect, it actually opens a new chart window with none of the indicators, drawings, or anything else I need. Is this by design, or is it a setting somewhere?
    2b. Are there any hotkeys or something available to simply jump from trade to trade on the chart?

    Hello pshift,

    I have moved this from the Strategy Development section of the forums to the Platform Technical Support section of the forums as this does not appear to pertain to development or programming in C#. Let me know if I have moved this in error and your questions are about development.

    To navigate to a specific date/time right-click the X-axis (time axis) scroll bar, select Go To...

    " If I use the context menu on the trade tab and click "Chart" from a trade, instead of navigating to the trade on the chart as one would expect, it actually opens a new chart window with none of the indicators, drawings, or anything else I need.

    Yes, right-clicking an execution marker and selecting Chart will open a chart. This is by design.

    Unfortunately, there are no hotkeys for adjusting the X-axis to a specific time of a chart.
    The left and right directional arrow keys only adjust the chart X-axis one bar at a time.
    PageUp / PageDown adjust one page at a time.
    The End / Home adjust to the start or end of the chart.
