I like light blue and red on a black background, it just works with my eyes the best and I see things better. Thats just me, not everyone.
When we had a ton of volatility I increased the size of my Y axis to better scalp breakouts. It did exaggerate things, but I found more small breakouts that way, now if I use the same size I get screwed up every time. |

One note James (and I realize you are younger) - a dark background will create more stress on your eyes over time. I liked the look of the black background as well, but quickly found out from the eye doc that's not such a good idea. The dark background forces your eyes to focus more and creates unnecessary strain. And that extra focus is not a good thing. That does not equate to being more focused on your trades, it just creates more stress on your eyes to watch your charts. I don't use white, just a very faint/light blue.
I wasn't convinced at first, but after reading up on it, it makes sense - just about everything you read (magazines, books, websites, etc.) all have a white or light background. It's easier on the eyes and your eyes have been trained to be able to read easily with that background. Now, when an advertiser wants to attract your eyes, they can do so w/ a dark background b/c it forces your eyes to pause and focus on the object.
Just an FYI.
