Earnings date indicators (letters).
None of the historical charts I've looked at have the latest earnings dates marked on them (with the E). Some of those earnings came in many weeks ago. Up to five weeks ago, for instance.
What's the procedure for updating that info, and how long does one have to wait? There is no facility for me to update it, but there could be.
So I looked in the help file for a little information on this.
Well, the help file popped up beneath all but one MT-related object on the screen, which made it pretty tricky to access. I think it should always be displayed over all other open MT objects. Otherwise, when first opened it is likely to be buried under those objects (historical charts, intraday charts, and options window, as it was in my case) and that prevents its access without first reducing or moving or closing all those other objects that are on top of it. What's more, there is no setting on the help file for bringing it to the top.
But, rather than having to close or reduce a bunch of stuff, it's best to have the help file on top of all those other objects because one can then read the help file while still being able to view what the specific help pertains to.
