When I use the symbol NQU4 in the Trade Symbol under chart settings, which is a MD Trader symbol for the NQ, I can get up to the tick ( i think ) data, only problem is my volume profile lines are very thin which makes me think I am not getting Tick data even thought the chart is set for Tick data and not 1 minute. But when I change the symbol to the DTN backfill symbol @NQ# and set the Trade and Current Quote symbol to NQU4 I cannot get up to the second data on the chart and it back fills to a previous date in the past. I have the historical symbol setup for the DTN symbol and the most recent date for the backfill is 10 days prior to today 8/8/14. I have tried to find out how to setup my charts correctly according to DTN backfill with MD Trader but the search post in the forums doesn't allow for more than 2 or 3 search words and I am stuck. How can I make sure I get back-adjusted data and up to the tick data included in the charts? Am trying to see if Sierra Charts are going to work for me since I have 2 days left for trial.Thanks, Robby |

We are not understanding the reference to MD trader. We are not sure of the relevancy of that. Follow the instructions here for a tick by tick data configuration: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_TickbyTickDataConfiguration.php Only use the symbols you find in File >> Find Symbol. These are the correct symbols for OEC. On your existing Intraday charts, select Chart >> Chart Settings and set the Volume at Price Multiplier to 1. It must be 1.

Sorry for the confusion, I have OEC data with DTN back fill, so the symbols for OEC will conflict with DTN's back fill unless your software can accommodate for that.How should I set up a chart for OEC Real-time feed with DTN back fill since they may conflict ? I followed the instructions you posted about setting up a chart to see if I get tick data. See screenshot . I have a 5 tick space between each Volume Profile bar and the setting for the chart is listed in a screenshot, and would like to see the profile represent all prices for a fluid profile. I see hash-tags for the prices coming in in real-time so I believe am getting Tick data and confirming with my other platforms. Am unsure what to do at this point, and thanks for your response so far. |

This is what you need to do and what we said previously: On your existing Intraday charts, select Chart >> Chart Settings and set the Volume at Price Multiplier to 1. It must be 1.
