CQG 7.7 introduces Time-Based TFlow Charts. This new charting style is similar to CQG’s TFlow™ charts, but this new version, as the name implies, is based on time.

CQG offers fourteen different charting styles. One I like to use for tracking the energy markets is the Analog Chart. This chart style allows you to overlay different markets on the same chart.
