Volume bars chart slowly
Whenever I make a chart with volume bars, they plot really slow. Especially if I use higher levels of volume like 10000. The time based charts (30 second/1 Minute) work great however. I am using the Zen-Fire demo account right now as my provider.Tags: None

I assume this is because the volume bars are recalculated from the tick values each time. If that is correct, and since most people use the same values in the volume charts over and over, wouldn't it be possible to cache the bars so that the next time the chart is opened, it will be as fast as a time based bar?
Thanks

Hello,
The Volume charts take longer because each tick has to be allocated to each bar give your volume setting for the bars.
Note there will be great improvements to NT charts in the up coming NT version 7, which is do start beta testing in the second quarter of this year.DenNinjaTrader Customer Service

The point of my suggestion was that, given that volume bar users use the same settings every day, it would make sense to simply store the historical bars once they've been created rather than reprocess them at the tick level each time a chart is opened.
