Is there a way to keep the candles centered on the chart?

[MatthewLesko]

Whenever I click F in the top right of the chart to focus it just shifts everything to align toward the top of the chart. This is sort of useless as an automatic alignment/positioning because I can't see any indicators above the current price action, so I have to hold Ctrl and click to drag everything down. But then it naturally just starts going off the chart and I can't automatically keep up with the candles and movement of price because I have to keep manually resizing the chart.
Is there anyway to just keep the dang chart centered and automatically scrolling as the candles continue?

I think what your looking for is "Center price on scale" checkbox on the Data Series dialog box. When you open a chart, make sure its "checked". Its near the bottom of the picture.

Hi Matthew,
you probably searching for this settings under mouse right click on Y-axis -> Properties
and/or appropriate settings for using auto-scaling for some of the indicators on your chart
but you didn't send a picture so we're just guessing what your exact problem is and what solution is more useful

Awesome thanks, that looks to be it and do the trick, will give it a try for a few days and see how it works/helps.

Thank you

The "Center price on scale" works but I'm finding that even after I save my workspace with that setting enabled, I'm frequently having to re-enable it when I restart.
Is that supposed to be a setting that saves always or indeed has to be re-enabled after relaunching NinjaTrader?
