Sierra Chart Engineering: In case you missed my earlier post, I'm hoping you could address the problem I and other traders I've spoken to this past week who use Sierra Charts as well (some Rithmic and some CQG) about the audible sound alerts going off from Sierra chart when the market trades at the order/stop price but the charting software has visual lag of 3-6 seconds before the entry or stop price is shown on the charts. The order is obviously getting executed in the market/exchange but where could the problem lie that causes charting lag?

I primarily use TPO's and Numbers bars. All have been set to 300ms update in my Global settings. My CPU and RAM show less than 50% use during high volatility.

Thanks for your help
