Zoom out to a full year without losing highs
Updated 2026-09-22
Zooming out in ChartXpert shows thousands of candles on one screen, yet the true high and low stay marked at their real position instead of being averaged away. Historical levels and that one long liquidity wick read exactly as they happened.
Why the wick disappears elsewhere
When several candles are merged into one for display, the highest and lowest wicks get averaged and a break looks like it never happened. Here the high stays the high and the low stays the low at any zoom level.
- The high and the low are marked with a dot and a label
- Zoom with the mouse wheel or two fingers on the phone
- Horizontal panning reveals older history smoothly
How to use it for level mapping
Start on the daily timeframe and zoom out until a full year is visible, mark the repeated highs and lows, then zoom into smaller timeframes to watch price react at those same levels.
- Levels touched repeatedly are the ones that matter most
- Price voids become obvious in a long-range view
- Any level you mark can get a price alert
