The charts have loaded but they are not updating?
Charts have to be updated manually. Once the initial chart has loaded, a manual refresh will be required to see any new updates in the chart. Once a refresh occurs, a timer will activate preventing any additional refreshes from being made (refresh icon will be grayed out) until 5 minutes have passed. Please keep in mind that even after a refresh, the normal exchange rules for delayed data still apply. For a list of delay times by exchange, please click here.
To refresh a chart, press the F5 key on your keyboard, or click the first window icon on the title bar and select Refresh.
