I think there is a problem with the volume charts... I loaded from IQFEED, Multicharts, NinjaTrader, and Sierra Chart, all with the same QCL datafeed, 1000 volume chart. As you can see, multicharts and ninja are painting the same bars.... however Sierra chart is not painting in accordance to them. There is something off, how do I make Sierra paint the same proper bars? Enclosed is a screenshot of the 3 charting platforms plotting data side by side, so you can see what I am talking about. |

It seems that the problem was session times... FYI, the setting was 00:00 to 23:59 on the chart, and it seems that the session times that are defaulted with both Multicharts and NinjaTrader are the following: Sunday 1700 to Monday 1600 Monday 1700 to Tuesday 1600 Tuesday 1700 to Wednesday 1600 Wednesday 1700 to Thursday 1600 Thursday 1700 to Friday 1600 Multicharts has a definition section where you can create session time templates, then you map a symbol to a template. As far as I can determine, SC doesn't have that, I did chanvge the session time to start from 1700 and stop at 1600 and the bars look similar now. From my understanding there is a global session time specified somewhere, and then this can be overrridden at the chart level? I assume there is no place to make a session template and map it to an instrument. Is this correct? |
