I wish IB would add global chart parametr change capability for Multiple Charts with different products, like, time period selection drop down manual or buttons, number of bars increase decrease buttons etc. I saw these features in China financial market software.
This seems to change every charts to the same product as the source chart's, but won't change the time period simultaneously for all charts. Unless I was not doing the exact way as you described.
6 different related products of 6 small charts tiled on a screen will be good for me. I think it shouldn't take much more resource than one big full screen chart.
I believe these disconnects are temporary and will be resolved soon. I wouldn't give up OEC's superior software and API, fast data and execution, good customer service and better commissions yet.
If you want be a successful trader, you better listen to some veteran trader with over a million dollar account like Ted. If you want be an undercover salesman posing as a trader working on this site, there are plenty of them here you can listen to :)
Thank you, Ted!

What kind of company is that? Holding customer's money for years and not apologize, instead attack the customer. People are quite forgiven if you just return the money and apologize it.
