Here is a little trick I've done to look at 15 min S&P data with
different perpectives:
Assuming I am up and running:
1. Build a 15 minute chart like always.
2. Go into the server and change the S&P start time from 0830 to 0835
3. Build another 15 minute chart
4. go back into the server and change the S&P start time to 0840
5 Build another 15 min chart
6. Go back into the server and change the start time back to 0830.
All three charts will update under the time segment they were built under.
Only problem is of course when you shut down and reload you will have to go
back thru the procedure.
