Yes you are absolutely right. And not only did I not have any difference, but I was also under a trial from IQFeed on another instance of Sierra, and everything real time was the same. So I started questioning my self if I were so wrong. (I started realizing that something was wrong the previous week when I had 3 losers in a row, and only then for the first time I deleted and redownloaded data and noticed that the chart was wrong.) From the end of August I started saving at the end of the session all of my intraday charts with the trendlines and channels that I had drawn live for future study. keep in mind that up until then, and actually up until the previous week I was confident that my charts were accurate to the last second. Last night after the close I study each and every day of September and most of the charts didn't align perfectly. And because most probably you wouldn't be interested from me posting charts here, I will try briefly giving an example. Lest say price is trending down, and on a retrace up on the upper already confirmed channel line my chart shows me that it has tried already one time to reverse down(ie a bar ticked bellow its previous bar), and when it hits the upper trend channel line it prints a bear bar closing at its low tick. Now that is a legitimate sell stop order below that bear bar with the probability (no more than 60% but no less than 60% due to the context) of that trade giving 4 ticks (on ES) to the downside before going 6 - 8 ticks upward. Now I took that trade and price trapped me (which has a 40% probability of doing it) and reversed up. But watch now the most interesting thing. After my loss once I deleted the chart and redownloaded the data, price had never ticked bellow the bear bar, or in other example price on that retrace to the upper channel had never tried to go bellow any prior bar, so at the edge of the upper channel it would have been its first attempt to resume the trend down and since it is the first attempt automatically I know that my potential success scalp on that trade would have been 40% and Less. But real time the data showed me that it already had ticked bellow a prior bar. Now I don't think there is any more room and time to argue about the data being good or not. But what is important is if I can have confidence that the data are gonna keep coming in as it did on Friday 16th. A question that comes in my mind in order to keep my sanity for whether I was right or wrong is Why after 17 post did the data feed send me the data as it should on Friday 16th? Closing this post I have to thank for your time and Effort and hope everything to work as it should. I am posting two pictures from your post #14 and from mine #11 from the real time data I received that day and giving an example of I trade that I see in you charts but not in mine(It has legit reasoning to trade it since on it's second attempt to resume the uptrend and especially because the second attempt comes from a nice bull bar the market trapped retail bulls and there is a 60% probability that it is gonna take their SL by 1 tick.)
