• Multi-periodicity chart windows - (Tour info)
  You can now mix intraday periodicities within Traditional Charts. You may add as many instruments as you like to a chart, each instrument having it's own periodicity. Any indicator added to a chart can then be attached to any instrument/periodicity combination. For instance, you may have a 1-minute candle chart of INTC. You can then click on the "Add Instrument" button on the chart toolbar, and choose INTC again, but this time choose "5-minute" as the periodicity, and you can choose to draw this INTC as a bar. You'll then have 5-minute INTC bars overlaying 1-minute INTC candles. You can drag the instruments into their own chart window pane, or overlay them in the same pane. Both sets of bars/candles will update dynamically, tick by tick. Now, when adding a new indicator to this chart, you can choose whether to attach it to the 5-minute INTC or the 1-minute INTC. When you click on the "Add Indicator" button in the chart toolbar (or just hit Insert on your keyboard), you'll see an "Associated Instrument" choice in the lower left corner of the Add Indicator window. The 5-minute INTC will show up as "INTC(AUTO:0:5)" while the 1-minute INTC will show up as "INTC(AUTO:0:1)". The last number in parenthesis represents the periodicity of the instrument (The first two represent the exchange and session). Choose the instrument/periodicity combination to which you would like to add the indicator before adding it.
  
  When switching the periodicity of a chart that contains instruments of multiple periodicities, any instrument whose periodicity matched the original periodicity of the chart (before changing) will also be changed. If the periodicity of the instrument did not match the periodicity of the original chart, then that instrument's periodicity will not be changed. Using our example above, if we had a 1-minute chart containing 1-minute candles of INTC and 5-minute bars of INTC, and the periodicity of the chart was change to 3-minutes, then the 1-minute candles would change to 3-minute candles, while the 5-minute bars would remain 5-minute bars.
  
  You'll now see the periodicity in parenthesis next to the ticker symbol throughout the chart, in the form TICKER (periodicity). For example, the 5-minute INTC bars would show up as "INTC (5)". You will be able to identify which indicator is associated with which instrument/periodicity combination with this notation.
  
  You are not limited to adding the same symbol multiple times. You could also add 30-minute MSFT candles to the same chart, or a 15-minute connected line of INDU. Each time you add an instrument, you can now specify a unique periodicity for that instrument. In that sense, the chart has a periodicity, and each instrument has it's own periodicity. If you are not interested in using multiple periodicity charts, do not let this confuse you. The program will operate just as it has before if you do not elect to add additional instruments with periodicities that vary from the periodicity of the chart. By default, the periodicity that will be displayed in the "Add Instrument" window will be the same as the periodicity of the underlying chart.
• Charting Holidays
  Investor/RT has been enhanced to remove holidays from intra-day charts. Trading holidays will no longer appear as "white space" in intra-day charts. Abbreviated trading sessions will show white space for that portion of the normal trading session during which no trading occurs. The myTrack and DTN.IQ versions of Investor/RT have been improved to eliminate "no data" messages during intra-day data downloads in the period immediately following a trading holiday. The data import process has been improved to filter out any incoming data that is (incorrectly) targeted for a trading holiday. Overall, the Investor/RT user experience in the day(s) immediately following a weekday trading holiday is much improved.
• Keyboard Shortcuts for Indicator Presets
  Keyboard shortcuts can now be defined to add or remove any technical indicator preset from the current chart window. In the past, the add/remove shortcuts could only add or remove the default setup for any indicator. Now you can define and reference as many setups for the same indicator as you wish. For example, you could have F2, F3, and F4 setup for 5, 10, and 15 period moving averages. First setup the presets using Setup: Preferences: Charts: Technical Indicators. Then use Setup: Preferences: Keyboard Shortcuts to define the shortcuts, use "Add" as the action and choose "Indicator Preset" as the type. A list of indicator presets will then be displayed.
• Exponential Moving Averages with Fractional Periods
  Exponential Moving Average has been added as a separate technical indicator and has the token EMA in the RTL language. The setup for EMA allows the user to specify a non-integral "period" for the exponential smoothing. The general purpose MA indicator in Investor/RT supports only whole numbers for periods.
• Linear Regression Oscillator (New LRF Option)
  The Linear Regression Oscillator represents the number of standard deviations of current price from the linear regression line. A value of 2 means that price is currently 2 standard deviations above the linear regression line (using the regression period specified...ending on that bar). A value of -1.5 means price is currently 1 1/2 standard deviations below the regression line. This option has been added as a "Linear Regression Oscillator" checkbox to the LRF indicator. When drawn, reference lines are automatically drawn at -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2 standard deviations. It is recommended that the Linear Regression Oscillator be drawn in a separate pane from price data. The Linear Regression Oscillator tells how far the current price has deviated from the regression trendline, in units of standard deviations, or how far the price has deviated from the general trend established by the regression analysis (using the period specified).
• Normalized Options Added to LRS and LRA Indicators
  A new option has been added to Linear Regression Slope (LRS) for normalizing the resulting value. If the "x 100 / Price (Normalize)" options is checked, then the resulting value will be divided by 100, and then multiplied by the price of that bar. This normalizes the data for the sake of comparison among instruments that trade in different price ranges. If you are interested in using this study to compare slopes between instruments, it's important that this normalizing option be used. The difference between the normalized slope and the raw slope is similar to the difference between percent change (normalized), and change(unnormalized). If you're comparing two instruments, one that's trading at 200 and another that's trading at 10, then it's not fair to compare the change in price, although the normalized value of percent change does give us a fair basis of comparison.
  
  The normalized slope value essentially gives us the percent change is price per bar of the regression (best fit) line. If the normalized slope is 0.10, then the regression line is rising at a rate of 0.10% per bar. Similarly, a normalized slope of -0.25 would indicator that the line that best fits the last N bars of data is falling at the rate o 0.25% per bar.
  
  An option has also been added to Linear Regression Acceleration (LRA) for normalizing the resulting value. If the "x 100 / Price (Normalize)" options is checked, then the resulting value will be the change in normalized slope per bar. This normalizes the data for the sake of comparison among instruments that trade in different price ranges. If you are interested in using this study to compare acceleration between instruments, it's important that this normalizing option be used. The difference between the normalized acceleration and the raw acceleration is similar to the difference between percent change (normalized), and change (un-normalized). If you are comparing two instruments, one that is trading at 200 and another that is trading at 10, then it is inappropriate to compare the abolute change in price. However, the normalized value, percent change, does provide a good basis for comparing the relative price moves of the instruments, independent of the actual price levels of each instrument.
  
  The normalized acceleration value essentially gives us the change is the normalized slope of the regression (best fit) line, from bar to bar. When the normalized acceleration is 0.10, the regression line normalized slope is rising at a rate of 0.10 per bar. Similarly, a normalized acceleration of -0.25 would indicate that the normalized slope of the line that best fits the last N bars of data is falling at the rate o 0.25 per bar. For example, if the normalized slope of the last bar was 0.25 (meaning the regression line ending on that bar rises at a rate of 0.25% per bar on average), and the normalized slope of the current bar was 0.27, then the normalized acceleration of the current bar would 0.27 - 0.25 = 0.02. A positive acceleration value does not equate to a positive slope, simply to an increasing slope. Similarly, a negative acceleration equates to a decreasing slope.
• Indicator Preset Buttons Enhanced
  When setting up a chart Button as to represent a technical indicator preset, there is a new menu of choices for where to place the indicator in the chart window. The five choices for pane placement are:
  
  1. Default Pane
  2. Create a New Pane
  3. Overlay the Instrument
  4. Overlay the Same Indicator
  5. Add to Indicator-Only Pane
  
  Choice 1, "Default Pane", means to let Investor/RT decide where to place the indicator based on the indicator's type. Some indicators, like moving averages, Bollinger Bands, etc. are "overlay" indicators and will always be placed in the pane containing the instrument. Other indicators like RSI, MACD, etc. have a price scale much different than the instrument and are by default put into a newly created pane. 
  
  Choice 2, "Create a New Pane" means that the preset indicator will always be placed into a new pane regardless of its type. 
  
  Choice 3, "Overlay the Instrument" means that the preset indicator will always be directed to the pane of the instrument regardless of its type.
  
  Choice 4, Overlay the Same Indicator, means that Investor/RT will search the chart to see if there is another indicator present of the same kind, e.g. RSI. If there is one, the new preset will be added to the same pane. So for example, if you had presets for several RSI setups, choosing this placement option would superimpose all RSI presets into a single pane. If the default placement (choice 1) was used, each RSI would go into its own pane. 
  
  Finally choice 5, "Add to Indicator-only Pane", means that Investor/RT will look for a chart pane that contains only indicator(s) and no instrument and add the preset to that pane if so, otherwise the indicator will go into a new pane.
  
  When a preset button resides in a chart, the button itself has an associated instrument. This is an important consideration when there are multiple instruments in the chart or multiple periodicities of the same instrument. The instrument/periodicity that the button is associated with is the instrument that the preset will be associated with. However, when you click on a preset Button Investor/RT does look to see if you have first selected some other instrument in the chart window (by clicking on it or tabbing to it) and if so, the preset indicator will be added to the instrument that is selected and NOT to the instrument that is associated with the Button itself.
• Trading Notes Enhancements
  The appearance of the Trading Notes window has been improved. Both scrollbars for the instrument selector at the top left are now visible and a vertical scrollbar has been added to the note text display box for scrolling longer notes when needed. Setup: Preferences: Keyboard shortcuts can now be used to define a function key for opening the Trading Notes window. For example, if F2 is the Open: Trading Notes function key, then the key sequence:
  
  <F2>IBM<enter>
  
  will open the trading notes window, pick IBM from the list of instruments and bring up a prompting box for entering a new note for IBM. Type in the note text and press <enter> again to add the note. A new "Paste" button is available in this prompting box. The paste button is for creating note(s) from text you have copied to the clipboard elsewhere. Since trading notes are limited to 255 characters, the "Paste" button will add the text on the clipboard into multiple notes as required. As an example of how to effectively use this new facility, suppose you used the Web Research feature of Investor/RT to find an analyst report on Microsoft, ticker MSFT. First you select the text you wish from the report and copy it to the clipboard. Then return to Investor/RT and enter the following keystrokes:
  
  <F2>MSFT<enter><ALT-P>
  
  Here's what happens: <F2> opens the trading notes window, MSFT selects Microsoft from the instrument list, <enter> brings up the note entry prompt. Finally <ALT-P> clicks the "Paste" button in that dialog (Macintosh users would use <CMD-P> instead). If the text of the clipboard were say 700 characters long, three trading notes would then be added for MSFT, two of length 255 and the last segment of the report text in the third note.
  
  The Trading Notes window can be dismissed by pressing the esc key. If the Delete key is pressed when a note is selected, the note is deleted and the selection moves to the next earlier note. Thus you can delete a series of older notes by selecting the first note you wish to eliminate and then pressing the Delete Key multiple times. On Macintosh keyboards the Delete key is actually the shifted Help key, not the key labeled "delete" which functions as the backspace key.
• More Keyboard Shortcuts
  Setup: Preferences: Keyboard Shortcuts has been enhanced to add several new types to the "Open" Action. Specifically you can now define keyboard shortcuts to open trading notes or a particular custom indicator, custom column, or trading signal.
• Renko Charts Option Added to Point and Figure Charts
  A new checkbox has been added to PNF charts labeled "Renko" which essentially transforms the PNF chart into a Renko Chart. Renko Charts are very similar to PNF charts. Actually, if you take a PNF chart having a reversal criteria of 1, and then stretch each column out so that every X or O has its own separate column, then the result will be a Renko Chart. The result is a series of diagonals going up and down, with X's on the upward diagonals and O's on the downward diagonals. When the "Renko" checkbox is checked in the preferences, you'll notice that the "Reversal Criteria" control is disabled because Renko charts always use a Reversal Criteria of one.
• Market Profile Historical Period Expanded
  The historical reach of market profile charts has been expanded to reach any data in the past, as long as that data is available within Investor/RT. The setting "Use Last X days starting Y days back" formerly limited the Y value to a maximum of 30, but now has been expanded to allow any value to be typed in directly.
• Raff Channels Added To Linear Regression
  A new channel method has been added to the Linear Regression study called Raff Channels. If the Raff Channels checkbox is checked a different method will be used to compute the bands. Developed by Gilbert Raff, this method finds the maximum distance between any closing price and the regression line. This distance is then used as the basis for the channels. The channels are drawn parallel to the regression line, at a distance above and below the line equal to the maximum distance computed. The upper channel is then used for support, while the lower channel is used for resistance. Again, you can specify multiple levels, separated by commas. The levels will be used as multipliers of the standard Raff channels. To simply draw the standard Raff channels, specify multipliers of 1 for both the above and below channels.
• Scan/Signal Markers - New Shifting Option
  The Scan/Signal Marker technical indicator now has a shifting option. This option allows the user to draw the signals any number of bars left or right of the bar on which the actual signal occurred. A line is drawn from the shifted signals back to the bar on which the signal occurred to make it clear that the marker has been shifted for visual effect.
• Accessing View/Edit Historical Data
  The popup menu available in quote pages, portfolios, quick quotes, etc. by right-clicking on a ticker now has a View/Edit submenu for quickly calling up all of the historical data on file for the ticker for viewing. The submenu has choices for daily/weekly/monthly/1 min and 5 min bars and an "Other..." menu item for choosing any other periodicity. The new submenu is accessible from quote pages and portfolios and any instrument selection list appearing elsewhere in the system.
• Chart Calculation Statistics
  A new command has been added to the chart popup menu called "Calc Statistics". This command displays a summary of the technical indicators in the chart window along with calculation counts and average calculation times for each indicator.
• Improved Setup of Quote Pages
  When entering or editing a ticker into a quotepage, pressing the enter (return) key causes the entry or edit to be completed and a new empty row is inserted for further entry. For example, here are the steps to create (or add) tickers to a quote page:
  
  File: New: Quote Page
  Press the Insert Key to establish a new row with focus on the ticker cell
  IBM <enter> MSFT<enter> AAPL <enter> INTC <enter> CSCO <enter> <enter>
  Save the quote page with the five new rows
  
  The File: New: Quote Page command now opens a new untitled quotepage with just a few blank rows. The "Add Symbols to Quote Page" helper window is no longer opened automatically. If you wish to use this window to identify and add tickers to any quotepage, click the "Add Instruments to Quote Page" button on the quote page toolbar to bring up the instrument selection window.
• Chat Window scrolling Improved
  The Investor/RT Chat Window now has a scrollbar. When you are scrolled back reviewing pervious chat messages, new incoming messages are added but the chat window does not scroll automatically. Scroll back to the bottom to resume auto scrolling of each new incoming chat message. Keyboard scrolling keys are supported (Home, End, Page Up, Page Dn, ctrl-Home, ctrl-End).
• Send E-Mail Improvements
  The Send E-Mail window has been improved. The text of the email message now has a scrollbar. The list of supported email destinations is more apparent.
• Scrollbars for RTL formulas
  The scan/signal/custom indicator setup window now has a scrollbar for the formula entry text box. When entering long formulas it formerly was necessary to resize the setup window larger to see the full text of the formula.
• Default Scope Revision
  The default "Scope" for trendlines and Fibonacci indicators has been changed to "This chart, this instrument". All other indicators have a default scope of "This chart, any instrument". To see the effect, open a chart and draw a trendline. Change the instrument in the chart to some other instrument and the trendline will disappear. Change back to the original instrument and the trendline will appear again. The revision in default scope for trendlines and other instrument specific indicators eliminates the need to edit the preferences for the indicator after drawing it.
• IF THEN ELSE improved
  The RTL handling of IF THEN ELSE statements has been fixed to allow compound expressions for the THEN and ELSE clause. For example:
  
  IF (CL < MA) (SET(COLOR, COLOR_PINK) and SET(V#1, MA-CL)) ELSE (SET(COLOR, COLOR_LTBLUE) AND SET(V#1, CL - MA));
  
  Note the use of parentheses to bracket the entire expression following the THEN and ELSE tokens. Only one IF THEN ELSE statement can be used within an RTL formula. This restriction may be lifted in a later release.
• Chart Annotation Improvements
  The annotation charting tool has been enhanced with two new RTL tokens that can be used in annotation texts to display either the time remaining in the current intra-day bar or the percent complete of the current intra-day bar. The RTL tokens are named BARLEFT and BARPCT. To see how these are used, open a five-minute chart and add an annotation using the text:
  
  %BARLEFT left. Bar is %BARPCT%% complete.
  
  Each time a new trade or bid/ask change occurs in the chart, the annotation will update, displaying something like this:
  
  02:24 left. Bar is 51% complete.
  
  The preferences for the annotation indicator have been improved to clarify that RTL tokens can be used, prefixed with the % character, in the text of annotations. A menu list of RTL tokens useful in annotations is provided. Choosing a token from the list causes the token to be inserted at the end of the annotation text. Finally, when using V# variables in annotation texts (e.g. %V#1), Investor/RT now displays the numeric value of the V# variable using the display format specified by the user in Setup: User Variables. Prior to 5.4, all V# variables in annotations were displayed in 99.99999 format.
• Setup: Instruments Improved
  Setup Instruments has been moved to the top of the Setup Menu. Keyboard shortcut remains Alt-A (Command-A on Macintosh). A checkbox has been added to the left of the "Requested Exchange" menu button. When the checkbox is checked, the Requested Exchange menu becomes enabled so you can define new instruments with a requested exchange other than AUTO, or modify the requested exchange of an existing instrument. In most cases, instruments should have an requested exchange of AUTO (automatic). There a data feed specific special cases like QQQ in the Quote.com version of Investor/RT. QQQ must be defined with a requested exchange of AMEX to quote properly in the Quote.com version of Investor/RT. Similarly, the requested exchange must be specified for Canadian issues in the Quote.com version of Investor/RT. When it is necessary to adjust the requested exchange, some users may find the Setup: Instrument windows quicker than opening a quote page, adding the "Exchange Requested" column and editing the cell directly.
• New Indicator, RTL Token: TLB Oscillator - (Tour Info)
  This new technical indicator brings more powerful three-line break analysis to the RTL language. Use the TLBOSC token in scans. The indicator can be configured in a variety of ways to provide feedback on the state of three-line break analysis for any instrument. Click here for more details.
• Auto Trendline Tokens Added to RTL - (Tour Info)
  Auto Uptrend (TLU) and Auto Downtrend (TLD) tokens have been added to the RTL language. The value of these tokens will represent the value of the steepest automated trendline at the current bar. Each token uses the preferences of the Automatic Trendline indicator. These tokens can be helpful in finding instruments that may be breaking through the trend. For instance, you may run the following scan...
  
  CL <= TLU OR CL >= TLD
  
  ...to find instrument that have either broken above the auto-downtrend or broken below the auto-uptrend.
• Chart Pan Tool Improved
  Hold down the shift key while panning a chart. When you release the mouse, the chart will automatically snap back to auto-scaling. This technique is useful when you wish to temporarily pan the chart to inspect the values of trendlines or reference lines that may be off screen. Since auto-scaling is reinstated when you release the mouse there is no need to click in the upper right corner of the chart pane to return to auto-scaling. The "shift pan" is also useful when you want to make a horizontal adjustment in the "look ahead" period of the chart without affecting the vertical scaling of the chart. Other internal improvements were made so that chart window clicking will not result in manual scaling mode when panning is not intended. When you mouse down in a chart window in some white space area of a pane, the cursor will change to the hand cursor immediately, but the pan will not begin until you have moved the mouse pointer a small but definitive distance from the mouse down point. If you find a chart pane is in manual scaling mode as indicated by the M displayed in the upper right corner of the pane, you can quickly auto-scale the chart by shift panning a small distance. This may be more convenient than clicking on the M in some cases.
• Volume Profile Enhancements
  Volume Profile charts have been enhanced to consider up to 30 session of intraday data when composing the profile. Prior to version 5.4, the profile was limited to 4 sessions. In the Volume Profile preferences, this functionality is found in the "Use ticks and 1 minute bars from current session and previous X sessions
• Market Profile Enhancement
  Market Profile charts have been enhanced to consider up to 30 sessions of intraday data when composing the profile, in addition to allowing historical viewing of Market Profile charts. Prior to version 5.4, the profile was limited to 9 sessions. In the Market Profile preferences, this functionality is found in the "Show X days ending Y days back". X represents how many days will be profiled, and Y represents how many days back the chart will end. Y should be set to 0 for live (non-historical) Market Profile charts. But if you would like to see the profiles for the previous month, for instance, you may choose to "Show 20 days, beginning 13 days back".
• Auto-Fibonacci Retracement Token added to RTL (FIBR) - (Tour Info)
  The Auto-Fibonacci Retracement study has been added to the RTL language in the form of the token FIBR. The FIBR token represents the % retracement level based on an automated trendline connected the high and low extremes of the retracement period specified in the preferences. The only preference that is used for the FIBR token is the auto-retracement period. If a period of 50 is specified, for instance, then Investor/RT looks back over the past 50 bars and finds the highest high and lowest low and constructs trendline between these two. Then, the FIBR result is computed as the percent that the current price has retraced from the endpoint of the trendline vertically back toward the starting point.
  
  This value has also been added to the standard Fibonacci Retracement study on charts. You can have a dynamic line at the current price showing the percent the current price has retraced in a text box (80%, 55.5%, etc). To turn this feature on in the Fibonacci Retracement study, make sure the "Extend Right" and "Text on Right" checkboxes are both checked.
• Invisible option for instrument charts
  A new traditional chart type named "Invisible" has been added. When you designate an instrument as "invisible" the bar data for instrument is not displayed. This option may be useful when the same instrument is present in a chart multiple times, each time with a different periodicity. By designating some of the instruments as invisible, you can setup the chart to display only one periodicity. Technical indicators derived from the invisible instrument periodic data will be display but not the instrument bar data itself. The invisible "chart type" is available as a choice when you add a new instrument to a chart. The chart type can be changed at any time using the chart popup menu or by using the Edit button on the chart toolbar.
• Using a two-button mouse on Macintosh
  Investor/RT has been enhanced to support the right-click capability of two button mice. The OS X version supports two button mice directly. On OS 9, two button nice require a Macintosh driver for the mouse that passes the mouse click in as either a command-click or a control-click.
• Linear Regression Tool Enhanced
  The Linear Regression study (tool) has been enhanced to provide an option for fixing the beginning date/time of the regression line. The "Bars back" option allows the regression line to be calculated using a fixed number of bars back to the present bar. This new option allows the beginning date/time to be fixed so the number of bars used in the regression analysis increases as time marches on. Keyboard shortcuts are provided for moving the starting point left and right once the study is in the chart.
• Box Size in Point and Figure Analysis
  Some of you may not know that each instrument has it's own "Box Size". You can view the box size of any instrument but adding the "Box Size" column to a quotepage. The way this instrument property was used in the past was somewhat confusing, but I've modified it's use to make things clear. Instead of going into the confusing story of how it was used, let me tell you how you can use it in 5.4.3 forward...
  
  Box Size is a property that should be unique to the target symbol...that is the reason for giving each symbol it's own box size. A symbol that trades at 1500 might have a box size of 1, while a symbol that trades at 30 may have a box size of 0.25. There are two ways to SET the box size of a symbol. You can edit the appropriate cell directly in a quotepage, or you can use run a scan that set's the box size for a whole list of instruments at once. For instance, if you wanted to set the box size of an entire quotepage to 0.25, you would run this scan on your target quotepage...
  
  SET(BOX, 0.25)
  
  However, if you wanted to set the box size based on the current price of the instrument you might do this...
  
  SET(BOX, ROU(CL / 200, 0.05) )
  
  This will set the box size to the current price divide by 200...then rounded to the nearest nickel.... You may want to tweak it to you preferences, maybe dividing by 100 and rounding to the nearest dime, etc..
  ..
  
  SET(BOX, ROU(CL / 100) 0.10 ) )
  
  You're not required to set the box size, however. We have now added an option to all PNF Charts, PNF Indicators, and PNF tokens....to give you the option of using the box size of the underlying instrument, or using the box size you specify in the chart or indicator preferences. The checkbox is labeled "Use Box Size of Instrument". If this checkbox is checked, then the box size of the underlying instrument will be used when calculating the PNF columns. If this column is unchecked, then you will be able to supply your own box size in the preferences.
  
  Here are a few instances where this "Use Box Size of Instrument" can really come in handy. Let's say you are running a scan on a quotepage of 200 symbols to look for reversals, but you don't want to use the same box size for all 200....you want to base it on price. You can first run a scan that sets the box size (as we discussed above). Then you can run a scan using a PNF token setup for "Use Box Size of Instrument"....and each PNF value will be evaluated with the underlying box size of the instrument...instead of using the same box size for each one (which would happen if the checkbox is unchecked). Also, if you have a PNF chart open...and you like to switch symbols frequently by just typing the symbols into the chart, or double-clicking on the symbol in a quotepage...but you don't want to use the same box size for each symbol...there now is a checkbox in the PNF Chart preferences for "Use Box Size of Instrument". When this is checked...changing the symbol in the chart will change the box size of the chart to reflect the box size of the new symbol. The same would apply if you had a PNF indicator added to a traditional chart... You have the same option here. You may want to run you SET scan every day to reflect the current price...or maybe just schedule it to run every morning before the open.
