# Set charts to static image output, 1500 x 1000 pixels from tradeexecutor.utils.notebook import setup_charting_and_output, OutputMode setup_charting_and_output(OutputMode.static, image_format=”png”, width=1500, height=1000)

Parameters:

mode (OutputMode) – What kind of viewing context we have for this notebook output
image_format –
Do we do SVG or PNG.

SVG is better, but Github inline viewer cannot display it in the notebooks.
max_rows –
Do we remove the max_rows limitation from Pandas tables.

Default 20 is too low to display summary tables.
