Why not use an eod data supplier for your eod data. You will get something a
bit better as I find too many errors in QT from live data downloads to use
for any but short term intraday charting

Re. no trades for the day

I notice that AB shows yesterdays bar but with zero volume if QT responds
with zero trades - perhaps a little querk but something to watch out for.
