Zenfire Tick Charts Limitation

[MJT]

With Zenfire feed, when data is loaded on a tick chart, historical data comes from the NinjaTrader historical server, then switches to realtime data from Zenfire. This usually results in the tick count skipping, and therefore the new (realtime) bars on the chart are not strictly correct. This means that the realtime portion of the chart will very likely be different when it is later replaced during a reload of historical data.

Are there any plans either by NinjaTrader or Zenfire to resolve this limitation?
