Actually it only happens when you add indicators on the bottom and the chart squishes to fit on the screen. I'm used to it, but it can create problems when comparing what I'm seeing to charts people post, and the perspective is so different.

The other day I was looking at one of AJ's 60 min charts and his candles were completely different to mine. Took me a while to realize TS was calculating the hours differently. I had to change the chart from "session hours" to "normal hours" to get the candles looking the way his did on StockChart. Still don't know which way is correct, though -- should it be calculated on the halves (i.e. 9:30, 10:30, etc.), or first candle 9:30 to 10, next 11, etc.)? Well, I seldom do more than glance at the hourly anyway, and that's the only chart affected because of the odd half-hour in the trading day.

Well, I think I'll forego another cup of coffee, and crawl into bed instead. Only 4 hours left until rise and shine for another fun-filled day trading the markets. <ng> 'Nite, Lee. Good trading.
