30-sec Chart Update

At the current moment our charts are updated once a minute. For example, the 9:30 bar covers a period from 9:30:00 until 9:30:59 and we update our data after the bar is completed. We do not provide streaming data simply because all our indicators including volume have to be calculated. Nobody (except us) provides volume for indexes and exchanges and this small delay is a price for complex calculation in real time.

Our developers started to implement the system that allows having 1-day and 2-hour chart periods to be updated every 30 seconds. We are on the final stage of this development and we plan to completely switch twice a minute updated charts within the next two weeks.
