Post From: Q on Reversal Bars without Wicks

I have Reversal Bars with various (reversal bar - minimum length) settings on several instruments. But quite a few of the candles DO NOT have wicks on them, even tho I have it set to Candlestick Bars in the settings. They are "blunt" on both ends. Many of them look normal and have wicks, but others do not.

How and why does this happen? I don't understand how a candle can have no wicks if in addition to it's minimum length; it also has to reverse a certain amount of ticks before the next candle would form, and also why some of the relationships between the close of one candle and the open of the next don't make sense.... why the close of one candle does not match the open of the next candle.

I have read thru your documentation and explanation on Reversal Bars many times but there just is something I am not understanding.

Thank you for your help.
