I plot daily ES and NQ on one chart, set time frame to 24/7, but there are some ugly spacing between bars, why?

please see attached chart

Hello,


Thank you for the forum post.


Is Equidistant bar spacing set to false?

• Right mouse click on the chart background > Properties...
• Under Axis > Equidistant bar spacing

"Equidistant bar spacing" which is automatically set to false when mixing more than one series. What this does is creates a time axis that is void of any missing bars so that mixed series of any type can all be accurately aligned to time.

When this property is set to true, bars have even space between them and missing time bars are excluded.

You don't have access to change this when there is more than one series applied to the chart - having 1 min and 5 min on the same chart for example.
With multiple series, the chart will use the same horizontal axis for all series, which means the space between bars won't be the same.

no, i use same time frame
the equidistance bar spacing is gray, not able to change to true

basically, your advice doesn't help

Hello supermht,

This is expected when plotting multiple data series in the same chart window since they will share the time axis.

You can plot the data series in different charts to remove the gap.

hi, Chris, NQ and ES have same ETH and RTH session, but gaps are still there

Hello supermht,

This is expected when plotting multiple data series in the same window.

I'm not exactly sure with your circles which spaces you are exactly pointing out, but you've managed to circle US holidays, namely Labor Day and Thanksgiving. Is that the issue here?
