Hello i am using SC connected to a SC supported DTS FX broker the mean is to place orders to the broker, md instead are received through an external datafeeder(only market data) on that we generate .scid files, if i choose for my .scid a name i.e. eurusd the data i write inside the scid are overwritten with the broker i.e. FXCM fx data , eventhough i don t have any eurusd.scid opened from FXCM and deleted the old .scid from \Data\ subfolder i d need if doable,to use eurusd for the .scid we generate to avoid the use of overlay study to save time (we work in millisecond space) secondly the data are filled tick by tick but if i choose 1sec or larger timeframe the volume num trades records are summed by SC, if i choose ticks timeframe then when not 10 ticks per second are available and thus written in my .scid SC splits by 2 (4 on spreadsheet for trading when 8 are written ,5 on the spreadsheet trading system when 9 written in the .scid and so on) the number of tick inside the .scid that i see on the spreadsheet are not the same if i choose ticks fill gaps then i have in the spreadsheet empty cells with 0 that don t accomplish with the trading strategies can you help ? Thanks
