OK, this one is bizarre and I need to figure out how to deal with it. Hopefully, someone can help me.
First, let's start with single data (a stock that closes at 1600):
Data1: MSFT - 1 minute 7/26/01 - 8/09/01
When I look at the chart on 7/26/01, I see that the last bar for the day has a time of 16:00. As it should.
Now, I add a symbol with slightly different session times and I have a multi-data chart with 2 symbols:
Data1: MSFT - 1 minute 7/26/01 - 8/09/01
Data2: SP-CONT - daily 5/29/01 - 8/09/01
Now, when I look at the chart on 7/26/01, I see that the last bar for the day for MSFT has a time of 16:01 (this is an additional bar that wasn't on the single data chart). And I see the bar for SP-CONT for the day sitting at 16:15. On 7/27/01, I see
that the last bar for the day for MSFT has a time of 16:02.
I set up a simple strategy because I need to determine the end of the day. This is the signal code (it's only one line):
print("BarNumber: ", BarNumber:0:0, " Date: ",ELDateToString(date)," Time: ",time:0:0);
And this is a clip of the pertinant results I described:

BarNumber: 337 Date: 07/26/2001 Time: 1557
BarNumber: 338 Date: 07/26/2001 Time: 1558
BarNumber: 339 Date: 07/26/2001 Time: 1559
BarNumber: 340 Date: 07/26/2001 Time: 1600

*END OF RESULTS*
SO, When I look at the intraday data for MSFT in the global server, the last trade on these days is at 1600.
Now my question is, what can I do to use these two symbols and not have the repeating bar evaluations at the end of the day?
TIA,
