How to Change Pre/Post-Market Price Plot Color
Pre-market (4-9 a.m.) and post-market (4-8 p.m.) data is available with Real-Time Stock Data in any service level of TC2000 (In order to view pre- and post-market data you will need to be subscribed to real-time US stock data). The chart price plot can be colored during these extended hours to differentiate it from the price during normal market hours (9:30 a.m. - 4 p.m.) Below are the steps for this plot coloring. (Note: Extended hours data only appears on intraday charts--time frames less than daily.)
1. Right click anywhere on the chart
2. Select Edit Chart Properties
3. Choose the Pre/Post Data tab
4. Color the price plot
Place a check mark in the tick box to open color palette
Click on color selector to choose color for the shading which will highlight pre/post data
You can also shade the chart background in this menu.
5. Review shading results
Note: pre/post market data only appears in intraday time frames (less than daily) for the most recent pre/post market data available
