Why don't you post your comments on the official Best Charts forum? The developer of the software does not read or post in this group, as far as I'm aware.
The link for the forum is in Best-Charts when you start it.

I could be wrong, but this seems to be a change from 4.33 where up to a calendar year would be displayed if the file was large enough. With 4.33, if the file was not large enough for the calculation (e.g., moving average) then the moving average plot started after the beginning of the time scale. Sometimes, only a brief segment was plotted. So, it seems 4.34 is doing the plots differently. In any event, I feel a full year's display is entirely appropriate. Regards, Howard david_louisson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Howard Like other charting packages, BC is unable to plot all of the available data because of the way in which indicators are calculated. For example, if you are plotting a 50-day moving average, you need 50 price data points just to be able to plot the first MA data point. Remember that BC is also doing complex AIO calculations that require additional combinations of data, thereby further reducing the number of resulting data points for plotting. Not being the developer, I don't know exactly how BC works, but it's possible that it only plots price data back as far as the earliest data point available for the most 'truncated' indicator.
