How to Increase Y-Axis Scale to See More Price Levels

[SpoTT Trader 35]

Here is a couple of hotkeys I use to quickly jump from '40' Margin to '99' Margin and back to my base Margin default of '20'

I use it depending on my Chart window size.

Examples of 20, 40 & 99 (all same ticker / 5 min)

Zoom and Scale- One thing I discovered today when setting up my charts on this topic.  Scaling is also affected by your moving averages and price marker settings.  When you configure your Levels setting like Y Low & Y High or Pre Mkt Low & High or Moving averages indicators in the study config section when right clicking on chart,  you may want to un-click the "include in scale" box in the config ex which will allow you to Zoom/scroll into you area of interest without making the candlesticks or chart smaller. 

Study Config--> highlight study--> hit configex--> check or uncheck the "include in scale" box

I left it checked for Candlesticks but removed it for everything else and I have beautiful zoom in & out scaling.
