Using a daily chart, how do I look at the "YHOO" , for example, in previous years...if I wanted to see the IPO week or month?

You can't. TC2000 version 12.2 is currently limited to the most recent 500 bars of data in any Time Frame.

This means there is only about 2 years of data available in a Daily Time Frame.

You would need to switch to a longer Time Frame to view older data in TC2000 version 12.2.

It should be noted that in TC2000 version 7 there is more than 20 years of Daily data for most symbols which have been around that long. Some symbols go back even further. The data for IBM goes back to 1962 and the data for DJ-30 goes back to 1915 for example.

A TC2000 data subscription includes access to both TC2000 version 12.2 and TC2000 version 7.

Bruce, Ok then, can I scroll back to the beginning of the first 500 bars and view the first "few" without crushing all bars together into a "snowblinding" mind-numbing gore of nothingness?

Yes. The scroll bar allows you to both scroll and zoom.

If you grab the center of the scroll bar and drag it, you will move the window of displayed bars through the 500 available bars.

If you grab the left or right edge of the scroll bar and drag it, the number of bars being displayed will change.
