There is an issue with Forex.com whereby historical data does not deliver today's in-progress bar. Today's bar starts printing when the first tick arrives after the chart loads.
Clearly this is not expected behaviour.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Disable Ninjatrader Historical data on a Forex.com/CityIndex account (NB: NT data is missing for many instruments, so it needs to be disabled when trading with this provider)
1. Connect to aforementioned Forex.com/CityIndex account
2. Open EURUSD on the daily timeframe
Expected Result:
- Chart loads with historical data including today's partially-completed daily bar which continues to print as ticks arrive.
Actual Result:
- Chart loads with all bars until yesterday, but Today's bar is missing. Todays bar starts printing afresh when the first tick arrives after chart loads.
FYI I have confirmed by making REST requests in POSTMAN to the API for historical daily data, that confirms that the today's bar is being delivered. The Close price updates as expected between subsequent requests. I have also confirmed the same with the StoneX C# API.
As a side note.... Please don't log this is a "feature request" - which seems to be common practice these days when bugs and issues are reported. This is an issue and should be treated as such.
Many thanks,
Kevin
