Hi,
Just a few thoughts from a non-pro ABer
1. If you have entered more than 1 ticker since the time AB session started and are in realtime mode, AB will try to get those quotes as well as for the displayed ticker (running an AA session or have tickers in an open realtime quote window also counts I believe).  The number of tickers AB will try to get I think depends on your data provider - 200 sounds to be plausable.
2. Could your data provider be sending ticks for the ticker many times/sec (ie 200 times in 20sec)?

Consider changing your afl to

_SECTION_BEGIN("YOURTITLE");
plot(C,"Close",colorblack
 _TRACE("test"+Now(4));
_SECTION_END();

save it
check to see if all times are ~the same or show a continum (could the 200 traces just be the last 200 but they are continuing while the window is open)?
consider disconnecting from your data provider
consider quitting and restarting AB and checking the above.

Would like to see the results of above
Dan
