And unless I'm mistaken, GS only makes 1/5 minute bars when you 
IMPORT tick data.  I don't know of any way to have it scan existing 
tick data and build 1/5 min data.  Which is a pain if you end up 
with a mixture of tick-only and tick/1/5 data (e.g. imported from 
different sources), since if TS sees the 1/5 min data anywhere, it 
will ONLY use 1/5 min data, even if that means it has huge holes in 
your charts where the GS only has tick data.

Only way I know to get around that is to export all the tick data, 
delete the data, then re-import it.  Messy -- especially if you have 
to do it for a lot of symbols.
