i use tick charts. iqfeed, cts t4 and SC futures feed all worked for me. last year i tried pulling up a tickchart with zenfire, chart looked totally different, data looked squeezed and incomplete. i didn´t bother investigating where these differences originated from.
shouldn´t zenfire deliver exactly the same chart as the other feeds if all ticks are sent?

Please google "how is tick chart formed" befor you make judgement of datafeed

Maybe to right, but it is doesnt make any sense if i see totally different chart (more data tick etc) before and after a historical refresh. Before the system down it was the same, now it is gatbage
If there is any new settings what should be added after NT update rel 19. That is fine, but if not than something is still wrong with zenfire

i agree currently Zenfire has problem, but normally tick chart has different appearance for couple of reason: session, computer clock, region(such as in USA or Asia.. ), I always trade tick chart using Zenfire, and there is no problems at all. my clients in Asia, their tick chart is different from mine sometimes. but he is ok to trade tick chart in Asia.

I agree. I used zenfire tickdata without issue before the crash, but once again. Small differences is fine, but this one is huge. If u are seeing 2 bar after the market open instead of 10 and u are refreshing it and makes it 10 (same data server!) than you can claom that they still have isseu - specially if this is the topic for it. But i am openminded so if I am doing something wrong just ler ne know i would be more than happy to use it again

i know how a tickchart is formed, i´m just saying, if zenfire and iqfeed both send all ticks, then i don´t see why the charts should look different.

One thing that does affect the look of a chart in NinjaTrader is the exact start time of the first bar of the chart. This is especially true for non time based charts , such as tick or volume charts. This can be affected by the start date of the chart, the session template being applied, and the number of bars being loaded.

I only use Sierrachart for charting, never used NT for this.
