Hi SC,

Is it possible to make a chart that creates a new bar everytime the Bid/Ask Average changes even when a Trade did not happen?

I tried doing this via making a chart with the -BAAVG suffix, but could not figure out which "Bar Period Type" to use.
Each "Bar Period Type" seemed to show the Bid/Ask Average only when a Trade happened.

The -BAAVG data recording mode is definitely the correct one to use.

All Bar Period Types are supported when using this. This setting has no relevancy when it comes to what data is recorded.

Great.

Which "Bar Period Type" would I use to to make the chart mentioned in the quote above?

You need to use: Number of Trades Per Bar = 1

I tried that.
It only showed what the bid/ask average was at the time of a trade.
I need it to show what the bid/ask average was in between trades as well.

To do this properly, it is not yet supported. We know what you want and we have not yet developed that. Please allow us about another three weeks.
