MB Volume data

[mikeklein]

I dont run NT 24 hours a day and would prefer not to if possible.

However, when I switch on in the mornings my 4 fx charts load up fine. They are 30 min candlestick charts with a volume histogram at the bottom. All the data appears when I first boot up, however when its time for the next candlestick to arrive, all the previous volume data disappears and the new volume for the previous stick is the only volume to be seen. From then on the volume histogram builds as you'd expect. It just seems odd that the downloaded volume is wiped away when the first new stick appears.
Is there a workaround ?

Hello mikeklein,

Unfortunately this is as expected as per forex volume data from MBTrading. There is a difference in historical and real-time forex volume data. Real-time forex volume data is reported in much higher numbers than historical forex volume data from MBTrading, so it seems the historical forex volume bars disappears. The historical forex volume is still there, but you cannot see it because the Y-axis has been increased due to the much higher values for real-time forex volume data. The issue has been reported at the forum thread below.

OK. I understand. Thanks for the speedy reply.
Rubbish attitude from MB really. Either they are doing stuff properly or not at all in my view.
