>Can someone tell me how i can get 5 different data time frames in 1 chart.
for ex. 1,2,3,4, and 5 minute quotes in 1 chart window.<
Market Mayvin:
Click Help, click contents, click using trade station, click chapter 4
(charting price data), click creating a multi-symbol chart, and in TS4 you
will see (and/or right click on the chart and click on "insert price data" or
press F5 key):
"Use the following steps to plot a symbol in an existing chart without
replacing the symbol already plotted in the chart.
1. Use the Insert - Price Data menu sequence to produce the Insert Price Data
dialog.
2. Choose your data source.
Click the Server Portfolio radio button if the source of the data is the
Omega Server.
Click the Directory radio button if the source of the data is the Omega
Downloader, the Omega Research CD, or daily data in a supported third-party
format.
Click the Custom Data List radio button if you are charting a Custom Data
List.
3. Select the symbol you want to add to the chart window.
If you know the symbol name, you can select the Symbol radio button to sort
by symbol and then simply type in the symbol name.
If you do not know the symbol name, use the Sort radio buttons to select the
way you want the list sorted (by Symbol or by Description) and scroll down
the list of symbols until you find the symbol you want to chart. To narrow
the search, select the way you want the list sorted then type the first few
letters of the symbol or description to display a list of symbols that match
what you typed.
Important: If the Replace active price data check box is selected, click the
check box to remove the check mark. If you do not remove the Replace active
price data check mark, the symbol you are inserting will replace the symbol
already plotted in the chart, rather than being added as an additional
symbol.
4. Click the Plot button (or double-click the symbol you want to plot).
TradeStation creates your chart by plotting the symbol you have chosen.
Plotting more than one symbol in a chart enables you to compare the two
symbols when you want to see if related symbols are performing in a similar
way; for example, you might compare a computer hardware firm with a computer
software firm to see if technology-related stocks have a similar performance.
