Second Index on our Chart

Another improvement was made on our charts. From now on you may plot second index on the main index pane and compare its trend to the main index trend.

This innovation on our charts lead to transferring volatility indexes (VIX, VXO and VXN) from the "Studies" pane (lower indicator pane) into the main index pane. Because of that, you will be able to apply various technical studies to the volatility indexes and analyze them as it is done with regular indexs.

New charts

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 completion.

Staring from tomorrow (July 24, 2008) we will have new updated chart version installed on our main server.

Important: In order to properly load new chart version, some web browsers may require you to refresh cache memory on your computer (use the Ctr-F5 button before and after login).

The implemented update will allow having 1-day and 2-hour chart periods to be updated every 30 seconds. On the 1-day and 2-hour chart periods 1 bar = 1 minute and we believe that it is essential to have chart updates as often as possible for these view periods. 5-day, 10-day, 15-day and higher timeframe charts will be updated once a minute after bar completion (the same as before).

E-mini charts will stay unchanged and, as before, they will be updated once a minute. Yet, we are working on having the 1-day and 2-hour view periods on these charts updated twice a minute as well.

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.
