Fast navigate and Historical data in ctrader
26 Sep 2016, 11:33


Hello, 

1. Is there any way to load data from a specified datetime? 
2. Is there any way to jump to a specified Datetime in chart?
Like MT4, you can press enter and then type date in format dd.mm.yyyy and then it goes there.

Sometime scrolling mouse takes a lot of time when using low timeframe

Thanks!!

Hello, 

There is no such feature, however; if you prefer not to use the mouse to scroll through the chat you could use the "Page UP" or "Home" key to move backwards in time and vice versa, you could use the "Page Down" key to move forward in time or the "End" key to move to most recent chart data.

Hello,

Even "page up" and "page down" is slow and clumsy if I want to jump to a specific time 3 months ago on 5m timeframe.

The same with the option to load chart from a specific date.

How about adding a "Goto" menu option like:

Right click --> Goto --> enter the datetime --> magic happens!!

Thanks!!

Hello,
have you implemented any new feature to move backward in price charts? Beside hotkeys and mouse scroll is there anything new?
Thank you very much.
Kind regards.

Be sure to need this feature. Especially so that the robot itself can load up to the desired date. For example, I uploaded a schedule manually. I launched the robot. And when the robot is working and the connection is disconnected, the schedule is reset and all work stops. I have to watch all the time whether the schedule is reset automatically or not.

Please implement the function of loading a specific date through some function through the C # code.

Fast navigate and historical data in ctrader

A fast way to jump to a specified datetime in charts has been an open request by clients since September of 2016 and yet there is no implementation of this simple feature.  Is this serious?

Is this anywhere on the implementation list? It's extremely frustrating moving the chart  back in time on the low timeframes....

Go to date historical data

It's unbelievable that 5 years after the first post asking for a simple feature to have the possibility to see historical data base on a range date that feature is still missing. I really ask my self how this platform can still be in the market associated to brokers I can have this information for free in barchart.com
