Added three new vertical scaling modesVisible Data Min/Max, Full Data Min/Max, Percent above/below last close and Fixed.     Back to new features



Properties for Vertical Scaling are available by right clicking in Chart area.

NOTES

1. "Visible Data Min/Max" handles vertical scaling the way AIQ has always done. It finds the highest high that is visibile and the lowest low, including bands, and those form the vertical limits. Those limits tend to jump around as you scroll left and right. You should never have data going off the top or bottom of the chart.

2. "Full Data Min/Max" looks at the entire set of data that has been loaded, even data points that are not currently visible, and sets the limits thereby. You should be able to scroll left and right and the vertical scale should remain fixed. You should never have data going off the top or bottom of the chart.

3. "Percent above/below last close" looks at the last close on the right hand side of the the chart and sets limits based on a percentage of that value. Some data may go off the top or bottom of the chart, depending on the volatility of the ticker and the tightness of the limits.

4. "Fixed" just fixes the scales at those values. If they're too big then the data just looks like an almost straight line. If they are too small then some or all of the data may be off the screen. Its possible you might see no data at all.
