When I use Chart Replay I have a 5 minute chart, 15 minute chart and an intraday daily chart. I would like to manually advance the chart one 5 minute bar at a time. When using the By Time method it seems to get off the 5 minute timeframe after a couple of advances and after 20 or so advances it is off by almost a minute. If I use To Next Bar then the intraday daily chart advances one bar each time. Is there not a precise way to advance the chart exactly 5 minutes at a time? Thanks |

Advancing by 5 minutes is going to advance by 5 minutes from whatever the current time is in the replay. So if the time is 13:37:00 and you move forward by 5 minutes it is going to go to 13:42:00. It is not advancing by the 5 minute bar. To advance all charts to the next 5 minute increment, use the Jump Method of To Next Time Increment and enter an increment of 00:05:00.000 (5 minutes).

Either it is not advancing every 5 minutes or the countdown timer is off. I’ll advance it by seconds to show the countdown timer at 300 seconds for a 5 minute chart, set the time increment to 5 minutes and click once and the countdown timer will show 3 or 4 seconds left. Click again and the countdown timer will show 8 to 10 seconds left on the next bar. And after advancing 10 or 15 times the countdown timer will be somewhere in the middle of that bar. It acts like the 5 minute advance is really just 4:52 or so.

Don't look at the countdown timer - look at the bar time in the Chart Header. That is the actual time of the currently displayed bar. If you are using the option to advance To Next Time Increment and jumping by 5 minutes, then what you should see if that the time will go to the next even increment of 5 minutes and do so each time you select it. If the Countdown Timer is getting off, then that would be something separate to have to look into, but check the above first.

I don't see a bar time in the chart header. Is there a setting for that?

You can change the Chart Header information by selecting Global Settings >> Customize Chart Header - Standard. Within there, the item you would want is Time. Refer to the following for the documentation for this: Working With Charts: Region Data Line / Chart Header For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

I started the chart replay at 17:10:00, had the Jump Method set to time and set on 5 minutes. Here were the following times each time I pressed the forward button; 17:10:00 17:14:56 17:19:52 17:24:52 17:29:49 17:34:46 17:39:23 The countdown timer seems to be doing the same thing. Starts at 300 seconds then 4, 8 and the time left for each 5 minute bar continues to increase. On the last advance above that shows 17:39:23 the countdown timer shows 37 seconds left. Thanks |

Give us a few days to go over this, probably today. So we can see if there are improvements we need to make . The jump is not going to be exact, but we will ensure there is synchronization maintained between the charts and that is what we will be checking on.

Any success with this? Tried again this morning and it seemed to be better, only 1 second off most advances, but still after 10-15 minutes of chart time its off by 30 seconds. Thanks |

We have not yet looked into this. We should get to it hopefully by the end of next week.

We did look into this, and so long as Skip Empty Period is disabled, charts will remain synchronized. Our only concern is, the charts maintain synchronization to each other.
