The five minute bars are built from the one minute data. You save
5 minute data so your charts come up faster when you load them for
5,10,15... minute bar charts. It is about speed. If you load a 5
minute chart for one year with only 1 minute data in the GS it will
take a long time to load but if you add the 5 minute resolution the GS
will build the 5 minute data then the charts come up much faster.
