I'm just curious. I'm assuming when a chart first loads SC retrieves the historical data from the data provider's historical REST endpoint and then starts building the real-time bar with their real-time web socket endpoint. Do you use the real-time data to add additional historical bars to a chart? Or do you for example; on a 1-minute chart retrieve the historical data every minute from the data provider's historical REST endpoint to add a new historical bar to a chart (when the 1-minute real-time bar closes). Just trying to find out if you use real-time data or historical data to add a new historical bar to a chart.
