This is interesting... I had the very same exact phenomenom with NT 6.5 while back and it dissappreared when I upgraded to NT 7 so I was happy. Now, I have not yet upgraded to ver 4, and it looks I'll wait until this issue gets corrected before doing that. It's really a nuisance when the cursor stall as you intend to enter a trade or manage one.
As I have told everyone (ad nauseam) , I trade on 5 tick range bars. Twice since upgrading to NT 7.4 I have seen a HUGE range bar (up to 20 ticks) suddenly materialize in the middle of live streaming and then the subsequent bars go back to 5 ticks.
I'm used to getting sudden movements that result in a bunch of 5 tick bars getting generated all at once, but this is a new development.
Before NT posts;
1. You are the ONLY user out of 100,000 that has this problem.
2. Techs have assured me we don't do that.
3. Please duplicate the problem , figure out a fix and email it to us.
I will try to figure out what the heck is going on.
So far, when this happens I just shut everything down and bring it back up and the "Long Bars " go away.
Of course the first time this happens in the middle of a trade ... I probably won't be so cavalier.

This obviously isn't a solution but may save some time if it works. Have you tried reloading all historical data instead of shutting things down and restarting?
In the past I would get a surge in ticks that would result in a bunch of 5 tick bars zooming across the screen, like during the Petroleum Inventory Status Report or a big news event. This "feels" like this is what is happening except now I get a long bar instead of a bunch of little ones.
On the second attachment you see a long bar and then a group of 5 tick bars "fill it" back in.
I haven't had it happen in the middle of a trade yet, but as long as the stop worked (... what could possibly go wrong... ), it wouldn't be much different than the burst of 5 ticks bars.
