Tech Notes:
Software problems like this often ‘appear’ to be computer hardware issues when in fact they related to QCharts. To rule it out, close your trading application and see if you still have a problem. Open any other program except your trading application or utilities used by your trading application.
Usually you will find that everything works fine until your trading application is opened. This means that if you only have an issue when the trading application is open, it is NOT the computer it is your application.
