[cw30000]

Please put pressure on Zen Fire to time stamp their data.

As you can see from the 2 charts, there are a lot of differences in both charts.

Correct Data from OEC.

Hello cw30000,

Thank you for your post.

When comparing data collected from different sources, some discrepancies can be expected.

For more information, please see the following link: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...ChartBars.html

NinjaTrader itself acts as a radio-receiver in that the software displays only the data that it is provided. If you feel that the data being sent from Zen-Fire is incorrect, this would be something you would need to discuss with your broker.

I have also compared it with Tradestation too. The TS and OEC data match, but ZF one is completely different.

There should be no discrepancy, after all, they are from the same exchange. Every bar is off by a few ticks.

There will always be differences because even though the data is from the same exchange, it comes through different providers that treat the data differently. Even on two identical NT charts, one with ZenFire and the other with IB or with eSignal data, there will be differences and your indicators will look different. Unfortunately that is just normal.

Hi,

Your problem is related to who time stamp the date.

Most brokers use your PC time for time stamp for ZF.

If you subscribe to e.g. IQ Feed they will use the time stamp of the exchange, so this will always look the same.

Hope this help you. - NT can tell you who uses exchange time stamp.

Hope this helps you


Best regards
