Post From: Tick chart that counts transactions instead of movement

It is indeed the EURUSD.

On other platforms(like Ninjatrader), I see the tick counter counting down while the price is not moving. On a 70 tick chart it should print a bar in about 30 seconds when the market is moving normally fast. On Sierra with a 70 tick chart it is now printing a bar in 10 minutes or so. Substantially lowering the amount of ticks per bar so that it will make a bar every 30 seconds or so, makes the charts very ugly and untradable. For Ninjatrader and Sierra I am using the same data feed from IB, so that does cause the difference.

Thanks!
