3acor Posted January 4 Author Report Share Posted January 4 Number of Trade indicator (the bottom) is just saying 50 the whole time,even after that huge volume spike at 13:00. I even cleared and backfilled, still the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 that counts # of rows in raw data basically. If your datafeed is not tick by tick, the huge volume won't make any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3acor Posted January 4 Author Report Share Posted January 4 I have dxFeed, but maybe because my portfolio wasn't opened at the time? I attached a snapshot of the raw data Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 you have it backfilled with OHLC Backfill, which is 4 rows per minute. if you clear and backfill with TICK Backfill, it would show OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3acor Posted January 4 Author Report Share Posted January 4 I did that, it worked now. Would that affect it being used as a variable in the scan? Like let's say I didn't clear and backfill with tick data Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 Yes it would If you have a scan portfolio and it has been running all day, it would have tick data already (stored from Level 1). Alternately, you can set default backfill to be Tick Backfill, but would be drastically slower on high volume symbols 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
