Post From: Sierra Chart Now Supports Building Custom Chart Bars Efficiently in ACSIL

How to access the basic data for each tick?

Such as price, volume, bid and ask information?

You need to use this member structure:
s_CustomChartBarInterface::NewFileRecord;

It has all the data you need. What you describe and post 43 is not the way to do this.

And:
s_CustomChartBarInterface::BidPrice;
s_CustomChartBarInterface::AskPrice;


generates a new bar with the Next tick as the first tick data, while the current tick data as the last tick for the current bar?
No, when setting ChartBarInterface.StartNewBarFlag = 1, the NewFileRecord will become part of the next new bar.
