hi i have a problem with the NT candlestick charts in that the last candle when i am using yahoo daily data for stocks, the last candle is always wrong, also on weekends i have noticed that for instance last weekend there was a candle being displayed for June the 1st with volume and everything even though june the 1st was a sunday, i went in and said to disable "weekends" and it fixed it for a split second then it went back to showing that candle, another thing i noticed is the various indicators don't even reach that candle they stop at the candle before that.

wow and just now i noticed on yahoo charts the data is still showing yesterdays close... i guess maybe its a problem with the place NT takes the data of yahoo...

YAHOO does not support real live data. You can NOT rely on the candle for the current day (which is build from live data) on YAHOO. Only true historical candles should be accurate.

i figured it out they're data for the current day seems to update at around 10:30 est, at that time NT displays the correct candle, then at 12am the next day same problem again so its a yahoo problem... oh well. I have a broker with live data but they don't seem to be supported by NT there name is Questrade based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
