Hello,
I am actually watching the EPM19 contract (S&P e-mini differed month future), using a standard 1-minute chart, but it often happens that a new bar is created only every 5 or even 10 minutes.
Why is this happening, and most important, is the price I see on the chart the real current price or a delayed price?

Sorry if the question had already been asked but I found nothing about it.
Regards

The June 2019 ES futures contract is currently sparsely traded so you won't get a bar every minute unless there was trading in than minute.

These may shed some light on this topic:
Chart Settings: Include Columns With No Data (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Bar Period >> Chart Bar Settings menu)
Chart Settings: Do Not Draw Columns With No Data (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Bar Period >> Chart Bar Settings menu)
