Default My charts are not Matching up...

I have been using Think or Swims charting service since I started trading and still use them sometimes even though I am now an avid user of the Ninja Charts. However, today when I went to backtest and compare both charting services, they did not match up at all ( the candles that is ). Like the 1:15 candle on Ninja was a totallydefferent candle than the 1:15 canle on Think or Swim. I know TorS charts are correct. Could I have changed a setting on Ninja to make it not line up candle for candle with TorS and where would I go to fix this? Thanks- Michael

NinjaTrader acts like a radio receiver in that we display data as it is provided.

Different data feed providers can produce different data. Please see the following link for more information.

Patsystems is a good data feed that supports real-time data and historical daily data for future instruments.

Many supported broker partners use Patsystems as the data feed.

If you like to switch data feeds, I suggest to check with your broker if they can provide a different data feed supported with NinjaTrader.

If you would switch to a broker that uses a different supported data feed, please send an email to sales[at]ninjatrader[dot]com with the request to change your live license to connect with the different data feed.
