Lock horizontal scroll of the chart in NT8

[trade2vin]

Hello everyone, is there a way to lock the horizontal scroll in the chart on NT8 desktop? Meaning, I do not want the chart to move left or right, via mouse cursor or keyboard keys. It should just move basis new candle formation, one candle at a time. Kindly let me know.

Hello trade2vin,

Thank you for your post.

Do you current see an arrow in the upper right corner of the chart? If so please click on the arrow to bring the chart back to the current bar and let me know if the chart then automatically shifts when a new candle is created.

@NinjaTrader_ChristopherJ Hello Christopher - my requirement is that I do not want the chart to move horizontally except for a move with every new candle. Currently, one can move the chart horizontally via mouse cursor and or keyboard. I want this movement to be locked. Is this possible?

If the chart has not been scrolled back in time the chart should automatically move horizontally when a new bar is plotted real time. If your chart does not move automatically can you attach a screenshot of your chart so I may look into this further.

To capture a screenshot I would recommend using Window's Snipping Tool.

Alternatively to capture a screenshot press Alt + PRINT SCREEN to take a screen shot of the selected window. Then go to Start--> Accessories--> Paint, and press CTRL + V to paste the image. Lastly, save as a jpeg file and attach the file to your reply.

@NinjaTrader_ChristopherJ - Hi Christopher - let me try to rephrase my question again. I do not want the screen to scroll left or right - currently it happens if I were you use my mouse. So I do not want to the screen to be scrolling horizontally -- is this possible? Hope, I am clear in what I am asking!
