Addition to this post... I now have 4 charts opened with a simple price chart displayed (Dragged from 'Basic Charts'). Each chart is displayed in 'sheet1' of the chart. No other 'sheets' contain anything at all. Each chart is maximised (hence only one visible at a time) and accessable via the MDI tabs. I have 4 intervals displayed... 1 min, 2 min, 3 min and 5 min. I use an IQ Feed DB. I'm using 8Gb ram and a 3Ghz octo core processor.
Each price chart has a total time of approx 0.0075 secs. The total redraw time for the four charts together is approx 0.45 secs. Again... this total redraw time seems both very high... and makes no sense. Any total chart redraw times of this magnitude seem to make AB quite unresponsive. Is anyone actually using AB for live trading using multiple charts displayed...? If so, please tell me how and what I'm doing wrong? Because right now, I can't seem to get the requisite speed for that to be an enjoyable reality. --- In [email protected], "sidhartha70" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi All, > > Just when I think I seem to have got to the bottom of speed issues for > live trading with AmiBroker...
