unlike Ninja Trader, there do not seem to be any well-organized tutorial videos for Multi Chart. There is virtually nothing on their web site, and only a smattering of broker-made videos on Youtube. So I am turning here for some help.
I recently asked my broker, AMP, for a demo of MC. I am now trying to figure out how to use it. I trade using a 2000 tick chart. I would like to view five days of the most recent tick data. How did I get it on my chart? Thanks for any assistance.

MC is very easy to use..especially if you've ever used Tradestation....
You have to go into "quotemanager" to select your datafeed and instrument (ES, CL etc)..under "Tools" you select the datasource (many choices), under "Instrument", select "add symbol from data source".. then go into charting..
In charting, just select "file, new window", then select the datafeed and instrument, then select the "settings" heading and insert your 2000 ticks, days back , session desired.... if everything is entered correctly, you should have a 2000 tick chart...

I forgot that I got frustrated last night and uninstalled the demo, along with the broker feed. So I guess the question is irrelevant now. Sorry about that.
