Rink, this is a consequence of the amount of data you are
requesting to be processed.
The more you have, the slower it goes.
When charting, Amibroker will only use as much data as is necessary to
correctly calculate the indicators you have plotted. E.g. You might
have half a million bars of data, but Amibroker might only need 500 to
display all your indicators properly so this will render quickly. If it
was to use the whole lot, then this would definitely cause some lag.
In your case, it sounds like it might be requiring a lot of data.
To find out, go to Tools->Preferences->Miscellaneous and
turn on "Display chart timing (advanced)".
Now you will see some status info displayed at the bottom of the chart.
This will tell you how many "# extra bars back" it is using. It
defaults to at least 30 and anything in the thousands or tens of
thousands is possibly cause to ask why.
Regards,
Jules.
