Refining Your Instrument Selection

Inside the search bar, enter the specific ticker symbol or browse through the categorized list of assets. It is crucial to note that price quotes are aggregated from various exchanges, brokers, and liquidity providers across different market segments.

Expert Tip: When selecting an instrument, always verify the source exchange (e.g., NASDAQ, NYSE) and the market type (Spot, Futures, or CFDs). Selecting the correct data source ensures that your technical analysis aligns with your specific trading environment and execution platform.

How to Scale and Navigate the Charts

Scaling Techniques

Our stock charts are fully interactive. You can scale the view using your mouse or hotkeys:

  • Manual Scaling: Click and drag the vertical (price) or horizontal (time) axes.
  • Horizontal Stretch: Hold Shift and scroll the mouse wheel.
  • Focus Center: Hover over any candle, hold Ctrl, and scroll to zoom in directly on that data point.

Choosing the Timeframe

To switch between different time periods (from 1-minute to monthly views), navigate to the Top Left Menu.

Click the Timeframe Icon (often displayed as a small cross or the current interval) to open the full selection menu. Select your preferred interval to reload the price action for that period.

*Pro Tip: Multi-timeframe analysis is a key strategy for identifying long-term trends and short-term entry points.

Navigating Timeframes and Scaling Options on Live Charts

Advanced Timeframe Settings

Our platform supports a wide spectrum of intervals, from 1-minute scalping setups to 12-month macro views. For price-action specialists, Range Charts (1 to 1,000) are available to eliminate time-based market noise.

You can fully personalize your workflow by adding frequently used intervals to your Favorites or even creating Custom Timeframes tailored to your specific strategy.

Quick Navigation Tools

  • Bottom-Left Panel: Use the quick-access bar for instant timeframe switching.
  • Go-To Date: Jump to a specific historical date and time with the built-in calendar tool.
  • Adaptive Layout: Save your favorite TFs for a clutter-free top menu.

Our free charts provide 17 different price visualization styles. To change the view, click the Chart Style icon in the top menu and select your preferred method:

  • • Bars
  • • Candles
  • • Hollow Candles
  • • Line
  • • Line with markers

Selecting Chart Styles: Candles, Renko, Heikin Ashi and more

Best Chart Styles for Your Trading Strategy

1. Scalping

Recommended: Candlesticks or Bars (M1–M5), Range Charts.

Scalpers require maximum detail and speed. Candlestick wicks reveal instant price reactions, while Range Charts are perfect for filtering out market noise during low volatility, building new bars only when a specific price move occurs.

2. Day Trading

Recommended: Candlesticks or HLC Area (M15–M30).

Intraday traders rely on reversal patterns like Hammers or Engulfing candles. HLC Area charts provide a clean visual of the overall trend, making it easier to monitor multiple instruments across several screens.

3. Swing Trading

Recommended: Heikin Ashi or Baseline (H4–D1).

Heikin Ashi smooths out fluctuations, helping you stay in a trend longer without being shaken out by minor pullbacks. Baseline charts are excellent for visually tracking price deviations from your entry point.

4. Trend Following & Investing

Recommended: Renko, Kagi, or Line Break.

These styles ignore time and focus purely on price action. Renko is ideal for identifying major trends, while Kagi and Line Break charts help eliminate false breakouts and emphasize long-term market structure shifts.

How to Overlay Multiple Instruments on One Chart

Advanced traders often compare different assets to identify correlations and market trends. Our interactive charts allow you to view multiple financial instruments simultaneously on a single screen.

Step-by-Step Comparison:

To add another asset, click the Plus (+) Icon located in the top left corner (next to the symbol search). This will open the “Compare or Add Symbol” window. Search for the secondary ticker, and it will be overlaid on your current chart for easy visual analysis.
