Hi, I use the Add Additional Symbol study to plot the volume for the Mini Nikkei futures onto the price chart of the Micro Nikkei. A few times throughout most days, the volume for the Mini stops updating (sometimes for up to a minute or more). I have a basic chart of the Mini Nikkei in the same chartbook and when I check it, the volume is updating but not on the Micro chart where I have added the Mini symbol. Any thoughts why this is happening? |

Are you doing the following: - Add "Add Additional Symbol" for the Mini Nikkei to a chart for the Micro Nikkei - Add a "Volume" study to the Micro Nikkei chart and set the "Based On" to the "Add Additional Symbol" study Or are you doing something different. If you are doing the above, then this should work. The only thing we can think of that might cause an issue is that the "Volume" study needs to be below the "Add Additional Symbol" study in the List of Studies to Graph. This ensures that the Add Additional Symbol study is updated first, then the Volume can get pulled from that properly.
