Subject: [amibroker] Why does AmiBroker under report time intervals by 1
minute on a 15min chart?
>I am trying to understand how AmiBroker reports the time in bars. As one
>example, I am noticing that on a 15 minute chart, every 15 minute interval
>(not counting the last one, which is in progress) is reporting 1 less
>minute than it should be. For example right now in EST I see:
>
> .....9:14:25,9:29:50,9:44:55
>
> on a chart for EURUSD futures on CME. Why isn't AmiBroker reporting
> 9:15:xx,9:30:xx,9:45:xx ?
>
> To say nothing of the issue of the seconds being different on each
> interval.
>
> Is it safe to assume that AB is always under reporting the minutes by 1
> for the given interval? In other words, can I safely parse out the minutes
> and add one to get the real interval?
>
> I also noticed that an hourly chart reports time in a weird way. It is
> 10:03pm EST. The last bar says 10:03pm. Fine. The prior bar says 9:29:xx,
> the bar prior to that 8:29:xx. Don't most charting apps use the convention
> of even hours? So that each bar is on an even hour interval? Isn't that
> pretty much standard convention or is there an option to change this in
> AmiBroker?

> Thanks.
