Look at the “EURUSD” chart. At the
top of the chart (in the white area), on the right is a
small green square. The green square indicates that the data
is live and in real time.

Notice that if you scroll the chart back,
the square turns red. This is because you are not looking at
live data, but historical data.
To ensure you are looking at live data
continually monitor the green square.
A green block at the bottom right side of
the program (in the grey Bar) indicates that your charts are
connected to the internet.
A red block indicates that there is no
internet connection.
