RE: [amibroker] Real Time Data - IntraDay Data Question...

I'm just 
speculating here.  But all minute bars are made up of tick data, compressed 
to the time period you select.  There are cases where in a slow marketa 
stock may not have any activity at all during a particular time frame, say 1 
minute.  So I would imagine there would be no ticks to make up a bar.  
In this case, there should be an empty space between bars which represents no 
activity.

If your data came 
in 1 minute bars as opposed to tick data, then I would imagine the chart is 
going to zoom down to zero when it hits that data.

Good 
question about how Amibroker handles this.

AMTo: amibroker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxSubject: [amibroker]Real 
Time Data - IntraDay Data Question...I was wondering 
how AB treats no trade records for a giving time interval.  For 
example, a kind donor of 1 min QQQ data from 1999 to present from QCharts 
in ASCII format had record in it with Date, Time, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0.  
Each zero representing O,H,L,C,V for a time interval where there wasn't 
any activity.Some software place the previous trade record's O,H,L,C 
and V...thus distorting all indicator calculations...so How can we filter 
these records from an importing data point of view and how does AB treat 
real time 1min (for example) bars if there aren't any 
trades...Thanks Your
