I am a new user of Multicharts and would like to interact here with other users. Multicharts has its own forum, but its hard to find answers and they have live chat support but they are offline on weekends which is when I usually need answers. I find it generally much faster to get answers to software and hardware questions here. Multicharts is overkill for what I need but I really like the charting software and its ability to use easylanguage studies and its user friendly interface.

The first problem Ive run into is how to set a chart to RTH. I want one chart to start at 9:30 and end at 4:15 as I like to see the gaps. I have been all over the settings but can't figure out how to do this. Anybody know how?

This should be one of the simplest chart settings to adjust in any charting software but doesnt seem to be with Multicharts.

Open a new quotemanager window. Find your Security and double click on it. Look for "Sessions" and adjust.

Thx for the input Vienna. I want to run 24hr volume bar charts AND RTH time charts for ES. I cannot do this with Quotetracker so I am evaluating Multicharts. Can I set both sessions for one symbol?

That I don't know... you should contact Dennis Globa at MC, from the website... they have a realtime chat.

Yes, you can chart the same symbol in both RTH and 24 hrs.

From the Quotemanager (QM), set your symbol as RTH. Don't worry, it will collect data in 24hrs if the data is present.

When you are creating a chart, from the "Format Symbol" window, under "Settings" tab, choose to select either "Regular" or "24 hour".

You are all set !

Thx WD40

I did as you suggest but the time chart is still displaying 24 hr data. I guess i will try the online support later in the morning. Thanks.
