# Time & Sales analysis
This functionality allows analyzing tick history by each bar or by price range selected on the chart. Selected bar or price range should not exceed one day, otherwise – tick history will not be loaded.
Time & Sales can be opened from the Analysis tools menu by clicking on the button 
or through Context menu -> Analysis tools -> T\&S.
{% hint style="warning" %}
**To work correctly with the tools of analysis, except Volume bars, it is obligatory to have trade and tick history.**
{% endhint %}
Time & Sales functionality can be set in the following way:
* Visible – controls visibility of the T\&S on the chart.
* Time & Sales mode – allows choosing mode of the data selection: single or price range.
* Single mode – if chosen, user selects bar on the chart by which information about the trades will be shown.
* Price range – if chosen, user specifies price range in the visual mode using two vertical lines.
* Keep range – if checked, the position of renderer (two vertical lines used to specify the range) in the 'Price range' mode will be saved relative to the axis X when switching the timeframe or changing the trading symbol. This setting is enabled only if 'Price range' mode is selected.
* Panel position – specifies position of the T\&S table relatively to the chart area: right or left.
Time & Sales table chronologically shows all trades for a symbol by selected period. The following parameters are shown in the T\&S table:
* Time – the time of the trade.
* Price – the price at which the trade fills.
* Size – the size of the trade.
* Source – the source of market data, where a trade took place.
* Side – shows side of the trade: Buy or Sell.
{% hint style="warning" %}
Please note that when setting **Keep range = True**, Time\&Sales border lines can be "lost" within the past chart history. In this case, use the Reset button that appears next to the instrument in the Volume analysis list.
{% endhint %}
### **T & S settings:**
* Grid – allows to choose the grid type inside of T\&S table: Vertical, Horizontal, Vertical & horizontal, None.
* Aggregation – if checked, all trades with the same price, side, size, and MPId in one row as total are shown. This is applied to the highly-liquid markets.
* Time format – the time of the trade, can be displayed in two modes depending on the time format set in the settings: hh:mm:ss or hh:mm:ss:ms.
* Autosize of columns – allows showing T\&S table in auto size mode.
* Show size in – allows selecting in what form the volume will be shown. General defaults – is taken from general settings; Lots – will be displayed in lots; Real size - will be displayed in real value.
* Round precision – if checked, user can set the precision of the volume display.
* Colors – allows to choose the coloring scheme for table and prints.
