Description

Ordinate

Use this drop-down list to specify how to display the y-axis of the chart. The following entries are available:

  • Automatic
    With this default setting, the useful settings are automatically selected. In brackets behind it you see the current setting (for example, "Automatic (absolute)")
    If only one time series is displayed, then the setting is set to "Automatic (absolute)" and linear. If several time series (securities) are displayed, then the setting is set to "Automatic (relative)" and linear. Exceptions are relative values (for example, foreign exchange), where the absolute classification is retained even when a benchmark is added.
  • Linear (absolute)
    With this setting (for single charts), the actual prices of the securities are displayed on the y-axis.
  • Linear (relative)
    In this setting, the prices are displayed relative to the start price of the selected start time. If a benchmark is displayed, then the widget switches to this display.
  • Logarithmic (absolute)
    In the logarithmic display, the values on the y-axis are always displayed with the same percentage distance. This means that a 10% price movement is always displayed with the same distance on the axis, irrespective of absolute values.
  • Logarithmic (relative)

Aggregation

The aggregation of the charts takes place automatically depending on the set period:

  • Intraday charts (5 minutes to 1 day): Aggregation 1 minute
  • Charts from 2 days to 2 weeks: Aggregation 15 minutes
  • Charts from 3 weeks to 5 years: Aggregation 1 day
  • Charts longer than 5 years: Aggregation 1 week

Use this drop-down list to select how to aggregate the displayed price data. The display is automatically optimised by default. (In this case, you will see the automatically set aggregation period in brackets behind it, for example, "Automatic (1 day)"). Depending on the selected period, you can use this selection list to select further entries:

  • 1 tick
  • 5 ticks
  • 10 ticks
  • 20 ticks
  • 50 ticks
  • 100 ticks
    The aggregation levels on a tick basis can only be selected for periods of up to one day.
  • 1 minute
  • 5 minutes
  • 10 minutes
  • 15 minutes
  • 30 minutes
  • 60 minutes
  • 1 day
  • 1 week

  • 1 month

  • 3 months
Legend

Turn this switch to the left to hide the legend displayed by default at the bottom right of the chart.

When you point to a chart line, the date and price at that point are shown in the legend:

This display can be changed in the widget settings so that the price display is shown directly at the mouse pointer via tooltip.

PushTurn this switch to the right to enable the data push feed.
Last closing priceTurn this switch to the right to show the tooltips.
Navigation paneTurn this switch to the right to right to display the lower navigator (zoom bar).
BVI performance

Move this switch to the right to change the display in the chart window to BVI performance.

If this setting is turned on, a further switch appears below it, which you can use to specify whether the original line of the performance is 100 or 0.

The display of the BVI performance appears - depending on the selected setting - behind the corresponding legend entry or directly in the tooltip at the mouse pointer.

Volume

Turn this switch to the right to show the volumes. This indicator shows the volumes at the corresponding times as bars of a histogram. The volumes are green for rising prices and red for falling prices.

Example: Chart with displayed volume

Display last valueBy default, the last values are displayed at the right side. Turn this switch to the left to hide them.
