FidThis is very hazardous when I'm trying to select a stock to buy or sell thinking I'm looking at the current chart when it's really months old. I don't have this problem with Edge or Chrome, only Firefox, which is currently my favorite browser. I went into my cookies and deleted all my fidelity cookies. The problem persists. What else can I try?elity stock charting date range incorrect after loading chart

I'm not sure how that date range is set. Can you recognize it as part of the URL of the page up in the address bar, or is it something that changes without any new page loading?

Either way, reloading the page using Ctrl+Shift+R should bypass the disk cache for files used to build the page. While that adds to the page load time, I think you might need to do it more often until someone gets to the bottom of it.

You can try these steps in case of issues with webpages:

You can reload webpage(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

Clear the Cache and remove the Cookies for websites that cause problems via the "3-bar" Firefox menu button (Settings).

"Remove the Cookies" for websites that cause problems:

  • Settings -> Privacy & Security
    Cookies and Site Data: "Manage Data"

"Clear the Cache":

  • Settings -> Privacy & Security
    Cookies and Site Data -> Clear Data -> [X] Cached Web Content -> Clear

Start Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration or userChrome.css is causing the problem.

  • switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Troubleshoot Mode start window
