Go to the share's quote page (i.e. click on the name, not the symbol in the watchlist). The intraday graph has been upgraded to show periods from intraday up to 10 years.

Thanks OST, good change, nicely done. Demonstrates that there are improvements being implemented. I apologise for inferring otherwise in previous posts.

... However, one tiny little gremlin seems to have crept in with the latest updates: when placing an order, it seems to ask for confirmation twice, and then if one presses "OK" twice, it actually attempts to place two trades. This happened to me twice; has anybody else also seen this?

While I'm providing feedback on the changes (in a positive spirit - please don't take this as criticism), I see on the intraday graph that there is a line from (current time, current price) to (current time + 1, 0). This line might, in some circumstances, mask a sudden plunge in the share value. I think it might be better if this line were removed, removing the ambiguity.

it's not a line, it's an edge .. the move detaisl above graph will keep you int he loop for sudden plunges ..

My point is that the edge is the same colour as the graph, and not entirely vertical, and so it looks like it could be part of the graph. If the edge was a different colour (e.g. the background colour or the fill colour), then there would be no ambiguity between the graph and the edge.

Gives me the feel of Bloomberg mixed with some CNBC. The switching between intervals on the same graph is very nice, its an excellent addition to the site, complements to the developers.

I absolutely agree with Timato, you have to remove the edge as you can't tell whether the edge is the edge or part of the graph. If a stock should start falling at the same angle as the edge you wouldn't know how far it has actually fallen.

Yes I agree with Timato.At times this is tricky to the eye.Change the colour(fill)to a lighter tone.

I have also had trouble with the edge - it seems to slope
