RealTick® Shortcut Keys
RealTick® Shortcut Keys can help you react faster by using your keyboard to issue commands and add RealTick functions to your page. One example of this feature is being able to switch the data-period on a chart with only three key strokes on your keyboard.
Examples: On an existing chart on your page type ".i5" and hit the "Enter" key on your keyboard. The charts data-period will switch from the current data-period to an Intrday, 5-minute interval chart, and vise-versa. You can also switch from an "Intraday" chart to a Daily chart. On the same chart, type ".D250" and hit the "Enter" key on your keyboard. The data-period on the chart will switch from an intraday chart to a Daily chart with 250 days of information.
