Thanks Alex,
I guess I failed to mention that this is day session only data so the last
tick of the previous day is always 3:15 pm central or earlier and the first
tick of the day is alway 8:30 am central. The fact that it doesnt do it
consistently makes me think it has something to do with realtime multidata
charts. I'm hoping someone can chime in here with a good understanding of
how the easylanguage engine handles multidata charts realtime vs single data
charts realtime.
