Within HIRO, we offer a rolling window. This allows traders to view the cumulative options flows accrue over shorter time intervals. By changing the cumulative timeframe to shorter durations, you are enabling yourself to see the more active order flow.
In underlying names with large order flow, the full day cumulative readings can get very large, which obscures the size of new, incoming order flow. Shorter rolling time windows may better highlight jumps in activity.
You can use your mouse cursor to increase or decrease the timeframe by scrolling up or down, or you can use the HIRO Settings button above the chart to choose from one of our default timeframe settings including:
- 1 Minute
- 5 Minutes
- 10 Minutes
- 30 Minutes
- 1 Hour
- 4 Hours
- 1 Day
Pro Tip: One way to alter the scale of the HIRO chart is to use the zoom function. By zooming in on more recent trading, you can see larger recent jumps in activity. This is technically done by dragging the x-axis (time) to the left on the chart.
