WEBVTT 00:00:01.300 --> 00:00:05.100 A chart's meaning depends on how much history you can see. A 00:00:05.100 --> 00:00:08.900 movement that looks dramatic in a short view may be one small 00:00:08.900 --> 00:00:12.700 part of a wider pattern. We will compare those views without changing 00:00:12.700 --> 00:00:16.500 the account or making a prediction. Begin with the example position's history 00:00:16.500 --> 00:00:20.300 open, and confirm the pair and the seven-day context in its heading. 00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:24.455 The current history view loads the last seven days. It does not 00:00:24.455 --> 00:00:28.111 provide a separate menu for choosing any number of days you want. 00:00:28.111 --> 00:00:31.766 Instead, the chart has a time-range slider and zoom controls for changing 00:00:31.766 --> 00:00:35.422 how much of the loaded history is visible. Narrowing that range changes 00:00:35.422 --> 00:00:39.077 your view of the existing information. It does not request a new 00:00:39.077 --> 00:00:40.600 trade or create more history. 00:00:41.100 --> 00:00:44.786 Use the slider to focus on a shorter section near the right 00:00:44.786 --> 00:00:48.473 side of the chart. Read the time labels after the change rather 00:00:48.473 --> 00:00:52.159 than assuming the view now means exactly one hour or one day. 00:00:52.159 --> 00:00:55.845 Then widen the slider to compare that section with the broader recorded 00:00:55.845 --> 00:00:59.532 window. On desktop, the chart's restore tool can also return its chart 00:00:59.532 --> 00:01:01.375 settings; read the resulting range again. 00:01:01.875 --> 00:01:05.702 Keep an eye on the price axis as you compare. Its scale 00:01:05.702 --> 00:01:09.530 can adjust to the visible data, which changes how steep a move 00:01:09.530 --> 00:01:13.357 looks. A line crossing half the screen is not automatically a fifty-percent 00:01:13.357 --> 00:01:17.185 change. Read the actual prices and timestamps before describing the size of 00:01:17.185 --> 00:01:21.012 a move. The picture helps you explore; the labels help you explain 00:01:21.012 --> 00:01:21.650 it accurately. 00:01:22.150 --> 00:01:26.606 The chart also offers Line and Candles. Line joins recorded price information 00:01:26.606 --> 00:01:31.061 into a continuous view. Candles summarize opening, highest, lowest, and closing prices 00:01:31.061 --> 00:01:35.517 for the recorded intervals. These are different ways to display available history. 00:01:35.517 --> 00:01:39.972 Switching between them does not change what happened, and choosing Candles does 00:01:39.972 --> 00:01:42.200 not create a new price forecast. 00:01:42.700 --> 00:01:46.703 Candles is available only when enough recorded candle data exists. If that 00:01:46.703 --> 00:01:50.707 option is disabled, the app can still show the line view when 00:01:50.707 --> 00:01:54.710 suitable price information is available. Do not treat a disabled candle button 00:01:54.710 --> 00:01:58.713 as an instruction to trade, reload repeatedly, or fill in missing data 00:01:58.713 --> 00:02:02.716 yourself. Record the limitation and use the information the screen can actually 00:02:02.716 --> 00:02:03.050 support. 00:02:03.550 --> 00:02:07.582 The chart may also show an average-entry line, purchase and sale markers, 00:02:07.582 --> 00:02:11.614 or a current-price marker. Those annotations have specific meanings for the displayed 00:02:11.614 --> 00:02:15.647 data. Read the legend, then inspect the relevant point. A marker near 00:02:15.647 --> 00:02:19.679 a candle is not proof that the whole candle represents your transaction, 00:02:19.679 --> 00:02:23.375 and an average-entry line is not a guaranteed future selling price. 00:02:23.875 --> 00:02:27.510 Now describe the comparison in a sentence: within the same recorded history, 00:02:27.510 --> 00:02:31.145 I narrowed the visible range, checked its timestamps, and widened it again. 00:02:31.145 --> 00:02:34.779 Mention which display you used and whether candle data was available. On 00:02:34.779 --> 00:02:38.414 a compact mobile chart, use the visible slider and Line or Candles 00:02:38.414 --> 00:02:42.049 controls rather than expecting every desktop tool. Your task is to understand 00:02:42.049 --> 00:02:44.775 context, not to make the chart look more convincing.
