Price Charts

The Timeport P730 Information Pager automatically plots a chart of stock prices or other numerical values for instruments or topics in your quickview (not quickview folder). Ten stock price charts can be displayed, one for each quickview you set up. The price charts are based on the values in the original topic messages and start collecting price data for charting once your selected information is put into quickview.

Note: The date and time setting on the Timeport P730 Information Pager must be correct otherwise the charts will not reflect the current information.

A moving window (the timeframe, as determined by your service provider) of price points is tracked for numerical topics that are put into quickview. The charts also display the maximum and minimum price reached. A vertical dotted line separates the previous day’s and current day’s prices or values as the chart crosses over from previous day to current day.

Note: For the period when the pager senses out of range, the chart leaves a gap until it is back in range.
