OHLC on minute bar - IB vs. esignal

[moonriver]

I was comparing data output on a 2 min fdax chart running NT and esignal side by side. Even though IB is a snapshot feed I thought on non-tick chart bars, such as a minute interval chart at least OHLC would be the same. Yet there is a tick or 2 difference on the open or high, low or close. It is not consistent. 1 bar on IB was even 6 ticks "short" (3 full point difference on the close!) compared to esignal. Any idea why that is? Thanks

Hi moonriver,

You are correct I believe, the time bars should align pretty closely.

Did you compare the eSignal already rolled continuous contract with the 'old' Dec one in IB by any chance?

Otherwise I would suggest synching your PC time and checking again next week.

Good weekend!
