I am also trying to understand the amount of historical data available, because my chart is only showing back to May 2015 even though I have the days to load set to 1500. I read there should be intraday tick data for the past two years. Everything prior and back to 2007 is provided in 4 second time frame units. Could you please advise.

but I am still having challenges with the entry and exit values.
We are not understanding this. Please be more clear.

PS do the forex charts have the possiblity of setting the bar period to "number of trades per bar"?

We see you are using Interactive Brokers. You should not have a problem with this as long as you use the six letter Forex symbols found in File >> Find Symbol. This data will come from the Sierra Chart Forex Data service.

Update the Symbol Settings as explained here:

Go to the chart you are trading from and select Chart >> Chart Settings >> Advanced Settings 2. The Price Multipliers must be set to 1.

This may not be relevant but it is also something you should be aware of:
