Please add custom timeframe ability
Most of the strategies I run are for off-timeframes that aren’t the most popular- For example, would love to be able to select a minute specific timeframe— Ex) 4min, 6min, 7min, 8min, etc. Should be a simple add and this would be extremely helpful and convenient. Thanks TopStep!

Add Custom Timeframe Creation to Chart Settings
I would like to request the ability to create and save custom timeframes within TopstepX charts.
Currently, the platform only allows selection from a fixed list of predefined timeframes. This limits flexibility, especially for traders who rely on specific execution intervals (for example: 2-minute, 20-minute, 45-minute, or custom session-based timeframes).
Proposed feature:
Allow users to input and save custom timeframes (e.g., 2m, 20m, 90m, etc.)
Enable these custom timeframes to appear alongside existing ones in the timeframe selector
Option to favorite or pin frequently used timeframes for faster access
Why this matters:
Many trading strategies depend on precise timeframe alignment. Not having access to custom intervals forces traders to compromise their execution or switch platforms for analysis.
Adding this feature would significantly improve workflow efficiency and make TopstepX more adaptable to different trading styles.

Custom Timeframe Option for Charts
I would like to request the ability to create and use custom timeframes in Project X — such as the 7-minute, or 12-hour charts. This feature would greatly help traders who rely on non-standard timeframes for backtesting, scalping, or intraday strategies.
Currently, we are limited to preset timeframes, which restricts flexibility and forces users to switch platforms for full execution or analysis.
Enabling this would enhance usability and make Project X more appealing to a broader audience of active traders.

Topstep levels: possibility to add custom times
The possibility to add a few custom time related price levels would be great. That way, those that want them could have the day open price, the NY midnight one, the equities open, NY open, or whatever.
Presets are nice but people are always going to want other levels: custom times is the answer.

Please add the ability to do custom time frames just like TradingView or at least at the 10 minute Candle as an option.
