Description

Hello,
Is there a way for MC to shorten the "Open" and "Close" ticks on the OHLC bars or make it possible for the user to set them at their desired length? This may seem trivial but if you look at the attached charts you will see what I mean. The open and close ticks are so long in MC that they connect, or at times overlapp, the bars next to them. This makes it very difficult to read the bars. The one chart is of MC and the other is one that has smaller open and close ticks. For the visual trader, this makes a big difference.
Thanks for the consideration

There is no such setting in MC at the moment, however as a workaround i can suggest you to change bar spacing on chart to see bar open and close. The disadvantage of this workaround is that you won't see the same amount of bar on your screen if you change bar spacing.

Hi, This has been under review for some time now. Is it possible to get this implemented?
Thanks so much.
