Buy and Sell arrow positions

[Chris001]

I am revising a strategy's real time performance and the location of the arrows indicating a buy and sell seems very unusual. In many cases I see the buy and sell arrows occupy the same bar, there is still the dotted line indicating the gain or loss but it is vertical at that bar location. Under the trades tab of strategy performance the Bars column indicates numerous bars and the entry and exit times do not concur with what is displayed on the chart. Is this a display issues or could a be missing something? Thanks

Hello Chris001,

Thank you for your post.

Is this a tick based chart? You can find information on how the trade executions are plotted at the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h..._are_plott.htm

Hi Patrick,

It is a tick based chart. I think from the two examples the first is the most likely, I doubt it is the second example as no slippage has occurred. So if it is a matter of syncing my PC clock with the data feed, how can this be done?

Thanks
