1. open a 1 tick chart
2. apply the custom chart study i created
3. apply the SC built in numbers bar study

would that work?
Contemplating this some more, we think we misunderstood what you wanted to do. We thought the objective was to create custom data in a Numbers Bar type of format.

It is certainly possible to create a custom chart where the timeframe or period per bar is according to your own rules and display the standard data within the Numbers Bars when using the Numbers Bars study. Therefore, the answer is that this would work if this is the objective.

And in the next release, we have added millisecond support to the mapping of the Volume at Price data from the underlying chart bars to the final custom chart bars you create.

If you do create a custom chart using Number of Trades = 1 per bar as the underlying chart bars, we recommend loading a small number of days into the chart. Preferably no more than 1 day. You might also want to look at using something like a 1 Tick Range bar chart as the underlying bars for greater efficiency.
