I trade Emini's on the globex ( this trade 24 Hrs) I only trade between the hours of 10am to 3pm. Can I restrict the data that is shown on a graph so it still shows several days of data but only within the above time restrictions and can I back test just this data.

Hey mike,
to backtest only this data you will have to add conditions to your fomula for example, to all you formulae add :
Hour()>=10 and Hour()<=15
Now this only works with MetaStock Pro.
Now about charting if you use data on demand, go to file, open, type a symbol and then right click on it in the list and select properties. Change the start and end times ... That should do it :)
