Chart tabs can be detached from the StreetSmart.com interface enabling you to keep certain charts in view while you use other tabs within the software. If you close or log off StreetSmart.com with charts detached, the charts will still be detached when you log back on.
To detach a chart: Click on the chart tab and drag the chart to the location you wish to display it, including even moving to it to a secondary monitor. You can also right-click in the chart and select Detach Chart, then drag the detached chart window to a new location.
To reattach a chart: Use any of the following methods:
TIP: If you can't find your detached charts on your desktop, click Find Panel in the empty tab where the chart was removed.
To change the price scale of a chart: Hover your mouse over the price scale, then click and drag up or down to expand or contract the price scale. For charts with broad price difference, this can help make the chart more readable.
Trading Halted: If the stock you are viewing in Level II, Quick Quote, the Stock or Advanced Options trading tabs, or Charts is halted by the exchange, a yellow Trading Halted indicator will display prominently at the top of tool.
