    Demos do not provide delayed data - the data will either be real-time or historical only. I suspect the discrepancy you're noticing is a difference in how bars are timestamped between NinjaTrader and whatever the other program is.

    NinjaTrader stamps a bar with the closing time of the bar. For example, a minute bar with a time of 9:31:00 AM has data from 9:30:00 AM through 9:30:59 AM. The 15:30 bar in your NinjaTrader screenshot contains the data from 15:15 through 15:29:29.

    Using end of bar time stamps is required in order to be able to plot multiple series of differing time frames within a single chart all accurately synchronized to time.

        If you read the rest of my post, it explains how and why this occurs:

            The timestamp of a bar will always be the closing time - this cannot be changed.
