New to MT5. Looking for few chart related settings

New comment
 

Hello Experts, 

I am new to MT5. Looking for few settings. Please suggest.

1) I am doing futures. How to get the session separator plotted on the chart ?

2) Change the time format displayed on the bottom of the chart . Currently it shows 11 May 22:41. How to make it show just 22:41.

3) Change the timezone in the chart. Currently it is showing GMT timezone. How to make it show CST ( Chicago )timezone.

4) There is no scroll bar on the chart. When I am dealing with 1 min chart, navigating to the left to go few days before with just the mouse scroll is painful. How to enable the chart horizontal scroll bar ?

5) DOM is only showing 20 ticks + some extended ticks. What if i like to navigate / browse 50 ticks beyond what is currently shown in the DOM. Do not see that option.

6) Scale for the volume indicator is not displayed be default. How to enable it?

Thanks in advance.

  4. You don't. Use the arrow, the page up/down, or Enter keys.

  5. Correct, you do not see that option.

  6. You don't. Try an indicator that display trade volume, not tick count.
