How to use advanced scale options on charts in FYERS App?
Available chart scale options
1. Auto (fits data to screen)
This option automatically adjusts the chart so all visible data fits properly on the screen. It is useful when the chart looks compressed, stretched, or distorted after zooming or manual scaling.
- Resets chart scaling.
- Improves readability.
- Useful after zooming or distortion.
2. Lock Price to Bar Ratio
This option locks the proportion between price movement on the Y-axis and time on the X-axis. It helps keep the chart scale consistent while zooming or resizing the chart.
- Keeps chart proportions fixed.
- Helps trend angles and chart patterns remain consistent.
- Useful for trendline, channel, and pattern-based analysis.
3. Scale Price Chart Only
This option lets you scale only the price chart without being affected by indicators or overlays. It is useful when indicators compress or stretch the chart and make candles harder to read.
- Adjusts only the price chart scale.
- Prevents indicators from distorting price candles.
- Useful when you want to focus only on price movement.
4. Invert Scale
This option flips the price axis vertically, so higher prices appear at the bottom and lower prices appear at the top. It provides an alternative way to view the market and may be useful for specific analysis styles.
- Reverses the price axis.
- Useful for analysing short positions.
- Provides an alternative market perspective.
Tip: For regular chart viewing, you can use Auto. If indicators affect candle visibility, use Scale Price Chart Only. For advanced pattern analysis, Lock Price to Bar Ratio can be more useful.
