Common reasons charts are blank

A few things that often cause this.

Subscription is not active

Charts will not load without an active AlchemCharts subscription.

Market data forms are incomplete

Exchange forms must be complete for data to activate.

Account is still activating

New accounts can take a short time before all data appears.

Wrong symbol format

Options, futures, and indexes use specific symbol formats.

Internet or security software issue

Firewalls or unstable internet can block live data.

Options/futures/index data not active yet

These data types may require additional agreements.

Frequently asked questions

Why are my charts blank?

Most often it is subscription status, market data forms, or login. This wizard walks you through each check.

Why can I see stocks but not options or futures?

Options, futures, and index data usually require additional exchange agreements. Support can confirm your status.

Do I need market data forms?

Yes. AlchemCharts cannot show live exchange data until your forms are complete.

Should I guess on form questions?

No. Answer the questions accurately based on your situation. We cannot tell you how to classify yourself - answer honestly and contact support if unsure.

What email should I use for support?

Use the email address on your AlchemCharts account so we can find your records.

Should I send my password?

Never. Support will never ask for your password or full credit card number.
