    Chart: Eliminate Five-Year Limit

    The five-year limit for available time periods for charts has been removed, allowing users to view chart histories as far back as the historical data allows. Additionally we have added "weekly" and "monthly" bars in addition to hourly and daily bars, and have imposed a 500-bar limit on the display.

    Hooray!:)

    Great. Now can you tell me how I can keep the charts from locking up every day.

    Maybe give IB a call. That's what they do.

    IB should consider buying some historical data for former Osaka and JASDAQ stocks now under TSE - charts only have a short period from when they came under TSE - basically useless.
