Hi, I am trying to get a 5 hour (300 min) chart using intraday data. I have selected "start time" as 7:00 and "end time" 14:00, but when the bars output to my chart, it gives me one bar with 5 hours (7:00-12:00) but for the bar that starts at 12:00, it stops at 14:00. Is there a way to show 300 minutes per bar, instead of it restarting a new bar every day? I have uncheck "new bar at session start". I have attached a screenshot of my chart settings. Thanks |

Based upon the configuration you describe, the result you are getting is correct. A 5 hour bar is not going to skip time. It will be 5 continuous hours from its start time.

Hi, I don't think I was very clear so I will try to be more clear. 1.I set bar period to 300 minutes. 2.I set the start time as 7:00 and end time as 13:59:59. 3.I uncheck "new bar at session start" For the first bar of data, I expect 7:00 - 11:59:59, which is what I get. For the second bar, I would like 12:00 - 9:59:59 (next day). Instead, the next bar is always 12:00 - 13:59:59, with the subsequent bar starting at 7:00. This means that it generates two bars per day, with the first bar starting at 7:00 with 300 minutes of data but the second bar only has 120 minutes of data. I can see this happening if "new bar at session start" was checked, but I have unchecked it. Please try this and let me know if I am doing something wrong. Also, let me know if you would like any specific screenshots. I am running version 949 and using DTN IQFeed for data. Thanks |

We understood the first time. The bars do not work like this. This is just simply not possible or supported or planned to be supported.
