In comparing Zen Fire tick charts with similar charts in TradeStation.....for example...the NQM06 5 tick bar chart does not have nearly as many bars as a comparable 5 tick chart in TradeStation.....While in the YM and ER2 the Zen Fire 5 tick charts are identical to those in TradeStation as far as the number of bars shown.
A screen shot of NQ tick charts attached....any suggestions on this ?
Thanks

Hi Alfred,
Are you referring to real-time? If yes, then I have no suggestion. We build what we received fromthe data feed regardless of the source. Meaning, ifa source does not provide all the ticks, then we would build it accordingly. I will have someone check on this.

Alfred,
Also, make sure your ticksize for NQ is in 0.25 and not 0.5 like it was before. This could cause an issue.

Ray...
Yes , it was set at 0.5 and changing to .25 has fixed it. Did not think of that...
Thanks !!
