Post From: How To Build A Daily Chart Using Intraday Data That Matches Historical Data?

Ok I figured it out. I was using the start/end time inverted. Now I set the daily bars to start at 16:00 and end at 15:59:59 and I am getting the bars looking correctly.

I turned off "do not load weekend data" because it was plotting small doji like bars on saturdays and it was annoying.

Then I noticed that building daily bars like this shows the wrong date on the timeline, the daily bars are lagging one day behind.

For example, this last friday daily bar was supposed to be the 13th, but it shows as the 12th. But it is saying in the manual that this is the expected behavior, ok.

I tested the simulator to see if this was gonna mess up something. I set the simulator to start on 2010/17/10. The daily bar shows 16th, but the intraday is showing the 17th, so it is working properly.

If you can wrap your mind around this fact and fight the OCD because the wrong date, well at least is working. This is the only way to use daily bars on the simulator/replay mode.
