I would like to have the Tick in the same chart as the price bars. I'm using the Overlay (Bar) study for this. I'm using this on a very small timeframe (11 s). I've now realized, that the Tick chart and the Price chart with the Tick in it are not 100% in synch. The (source) Tick chart prints the bars a little bit faster. Once the bar is printed in the price chart too, they are in synch. So for a little moment there is a lack of information in the tick of the price chart. Please see the attached chartbook to verify. Here are a few additional information: - I've played with the Chart Update Intervall in the range of 50-900 ms, but that doesn't solve it. It's now set to 250 ms. - The symbols (NQ and TICK-NASDAQ) are set to the same Timezone (Not specifed) and the same Session Times. - PC clock is correct (message log is saying: Local computer UTC time and Server UTC time difference: 0 seconds. \| 2015-11-25 17:25:34 - PC has an Intel i7 3.3 GHz, 16GB RAM and SSD drive. I've also tried the Study/Price Overlay study. It shows the same issue. Do you have an explanation why this is the case and can this be eliminated? Would you basically recommend using the Overlay (Bar) study or the Study/Price Overlay study for doing this?
