How can I delete historical data？
31 Aug 2024, 09:10
How can I delete historical data in cTrader's desktop version? The number of M1 and M5 historical candles is too large, causing the computer to process data very slowly. Is it possible to set the maximum number of candles displayed on the chart?
Can you provide a better explanation of the problem? What do you mean when you say “is too large”? How can we see this?

The longer the horizontal bar in the red box, the fewer the number of candlesticks in the chart, and the shorter, the more. The short one represents the M1 chart, which has too many candle sticks. I hope it could be like a range chart, where more K-line data is downloaded only when you drag it to the left. Without dragging, only a part of the candle sticks are displayed. The number of candle sticks in the M1 chart is very large when the software is opened. I hope it could be as few as the range chart. When I want to see more data, I can just drag it to left.

Hi there,
There is no way to reduce the number of loaded bars at the moment. However I cannot reproduce any delays. Can you provide more information? Can you record a video where we can see what you are experiencing?

There is a delay in data reception（MT4 or MT5 is faster），I thought it might be the historical data caused the problem. I can record a video, but uploading video is not allowed here，only pictures can be uploaded

Maybe talk to your broker then. They are responsible for their feeds.
