Hi, thank you for doing that! The data im seeing is different from other software that im using, using the same data source (FXCM)! Is there possibly different fxcm connections? Cheers Chris |

Just to add to that, i trade using a tick chart (universal renko) and I'm seeing nearly double the number of bars in today's session from what I'm seeing in other software using the same data (fxcm) and the same setup. Any help or ideas would be appreciated Cheers Chris |

FXCM has different data feeds. The data that you are receiving based upon the account assigned is considered the "Standard" account data feed. As compared to a dealing desk account data feed. The bid and ask spreads should also be tighter. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

We apologize for the delay. The reason for the delay is that FXCM is still doing work on the dealing desk connections configuration.
