the content of the csv file is as follows: Date,Time,Open,High,Low,Close,Volume,Number of Trades,Bid Volume,Ask Volume,Trade ID 20230425,10:00:00.003214,0,0,0,5.2,4.29,1,4.29,0,5522766811 20230425,10:00:00.003543,0,0,0,8.82352,6.5,1,6.5,0,5522766812 regarding the charts obtained, I provided screenshots directly opening the csv file resulted in issues even after removing the "Trade ID" row, the csv file still did not display correctly standardizing the volume by multiplying it by a certain number to convert it into an integer also yielded the same result the data provided by this exchange is very messy, I only need to view it without trading, so didn't use the dtc protocol after converting to scid, I lose the "Trade ID," which is the only data I can use to verify accuracy this also brings up an question with the scid file when the "Open" is 0.0, the Ask/Bid Volume already has enough information to indicate whether the trade direction is sell or buy so does sierrachart read the "Close" value directly and ignore any content in "High" and "Low"? if so, it seems I can write the "Trade ID" in these two fields.
