Yes:
Can you at least confirm my understanding is correct and in theory both functions should be giving the same output once filtered for SC_TS_BID and SC_TS_ASK?

You should see the same number of records between Time and Sales and the Intraday data file for a period of time like one minute corresponding to a chart bar in the case of when using 1 minute chart bars. There is no reason for them to be any different.

This is why we said, to use the Intraday data editor, and compare what you see in the Intraday file compared to the Time and Sales window.
