Default Diferences between Patsystem - Esignal

Hi, i testing several brokers, and put 2 identical charts + indicators + strategy, one with esignal and other with patsystems. The chart is set to 250 ticks, and i note in both one particular diference. The chart have 50-60 in esignal, but have 25-30 bars in patsystems, in the same particular time lapse. Itīs is a fail of configuration of NT? Is a difference tick resolution of the broker? Itīs a problem or is normal?

The biggest difference between data feeds is that some throttle their data to save bandwidth.

IB and Patsystems both throttle their data..a lot. All you have to do is run them next to Zenfire to see how much. Use a volume chart and note how much volume is reported in Zenfire and not reported in IB and Patsystems.

Also, of course, Patsystems does not push historical...IB does.

In my opinion, Zenfire is by far the best.
