Ranges, scales and time zone

The bar along the bottom of every chart holds range chips on the left, the chart’s clock, and the scale buttons on the right.

Range chips

Click a chip to fit that much history on the chart.

Chip	Shows
5yr	The whole tape
1yr	A year
3m	Three months
3d	Three sessions
1d	The session

A chip greys out when the timeframe can’t serve it:

Timeframe	Widest chip
10s, 15s	1d
1m – 5m	3d
15m – 4h	3m
1D	5yr

On a narrow chart the chips fold into a Date Range menu.

Scale buttons

Button	Does
%	Percent scale — every price as a change from the first bar on screen
log	Logarithmic scale — useful on names that double. Picking one of % and log turns the other off; click it again to go back to a normal scale
auto	Keeps the latest candle in view as the tape plays. Scroll or drag the chart and it lets go; click to re-engage

Put the price scale on the left from the Scales and lines tab of chart settings.

Clock and time zone

The clock shows the replay time in the chart’s time zone, with its UTC offset — e.g. 15:35:38 (UTC-4). Click it to pick UTC or one of 33 cities.

Current zone

The zone applies to every chart: the time axis, the crosshair and each bottom-bar clock. It’s the same setting as Settings → Charts → Chart timezone — change either and the other follows. Daily (1D) bars keep their calendar date.
