Bars in Seconds

[rtj4201]

I accidently saw that you could chart in "seconds". So I set the chart to 10 second intervals. It works, but it does not go back and draw the chart prior to the time i set the chart up.

Can i force it to chart the prior history in xx second intervals.

I use Interactive Brokers.

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

Unfortunately we do not support IB's tick data, which is what second charts are created with, so you will not be able to back fill the chart with IB data.

I am a little confused.

Does the fact that you do not support tick data affect the time frames that I enter trades in any way?

Am I getting the correct feed?

--> Not sure I understand your question... I should have said we don't support IB's "Historical Tick data." NinjaTrader will record live tick data and store this as historical, so you can trade using the second chart.
