I've been trying to play around with adding a tick chart (I normally use TIME based charts - 1 min, 5 min, etc). I must be doing something wrong with tick charts because it just doesn't look right (the bars are HUGE). How do I do a 500 tick chart?

In Sierra they are more accurately called 'Number of Trades per Bar'.

Chart Settings: Intraday Chart Bar Period >> Bar Period Type >> Number of Trades Per Bar (Chart >> Chart Settings menu)
