Benji Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 Can we get a hotkey for clearing data for a ticker? I see there are hotkeys for backfilling data; it would be nice to have it for clearing as well. I do this often enough to find it useful.

0 Jerry Medved Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 can't you just click the clear data button? Clearing is not usually somethingm done that often Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Benji Posted February 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 (edited) Yes that's what I've been doing. You could say the same for most hotkeys though. I like to keep the ribbons closed, so that adds an extra step. I often have to clear when there's gaps between candles - backfill doesn't do anything in that case. I've also had issues with volume being displayed incorrectly (IBKR data, or perhaps receiving data from multiple sourcecs) that clearing will quickly correct. Also, it can be a quick fix for getting rid of spikes. Edited February 14, 2022 by Benji Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mike Medved Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 Added it to shortcuts under Charts - Clear Data. Unassigned by default. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Benji Posted February 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 Thanks for the quick update! Since the shortcut is chart-specific, is it possible to make it honor the respective "Auto-backfill after clear" option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jerry Medved Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 will do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
