[amibroker] Different tick count between AB and TS: which one is correct?

Hello,

I switched to AB few days ago for several reasons, but mostly due to 
the slowness of my old tradestation 2000.
I am happy I did and can only see benefits using AB (5.10).
So now, during the passage time between TS towards AB (you know...re-
writing all studies in AFL, it takes some time...) I am running both 
applications, both using IB as my intraday quotes stream: AB with the 
integrated plugin and TS with 2 heavy interfaces: metaserver => 
globalserver => TS. 
But...but...I made a surprising discovery: charting in both apps the 
same symbol (EWZ) with the same time interval (100 ticks) gives 
totally different charting; from 2 given points on time I have 10 
bars in AB and 15 bars in TS. Please see my file "100ticks.pdf" 
posted in the file section.
How comes? This is a bit frightening because now I wonder which 
application is right and which is not???
Anyone has had this experience before?? As a matter of fact, AB 
generates less bars than TS for the same dataflow.
Perhaps Tomasz could explain this mystery?

Thanks for any help,
Carl
