Hi thanks for the response. But I'm not basing my issue purely on the computer clock, but the fact that SC Number bars are not printing in real-time, when I see the candle bars printed on other trading platforms like Dastrader, at the same time, during certain busy times(and hadnt noticed this issue before..seems to be happening lately). That's the lag I am concerned with, when I go blind(ie when I cant see the associated footprint data for a candle bar). Yes, I do see a difference of 6 seconds between local computer UTC time and Server UTC time. Also, I see a DD:00:00:07.2 on average on the chart header, indicating a Data delay of 7 seconds. You say this DD is "IN ADDITION" to difference in computer clock and exchange..,but also in the next sentence you said "gives you the instantaneous difference between your computer clock at the exchange clock". The documentation says "DD (Link) (Data Delay): The Data Delay field calculates and displays the difference between the current time and the time of the Last Trade Price or the Last Bid / Ask update time, whichever one is more recent. This is used to determine how much of a delay there is" . Am confused,can you clarify pls.. What can we do to reduce this data delay, as much as possible ? Thanks for that link,I will go through the entire list and try to take every step possible on my end to optimize, but its certainly not any of my computer resources(be it CPU or GPU or Memory or SSD..,as I have a very powerful Tower thats under-utilized even when heavily taxed) .and the fact that other trading app like DasTrader is printing the candles at the same time, when its missing in the footprint chart.
