FXCM Data Feed Issue

I'm curious if there is a way to filter out the bad candles at the end of the day on Fridays as the forex market comes to a close. This happens in all the currency pair feeds. You get a whole bunch of 1/10th of a pip candles that screw up your technicals during the Monday open for a while.

Perhaps there is a setting you can configure to filter out candles that are less than a pip in size?

What Time zone do you have in the chart?. We are not seeing this.

For the symbol in your chart attached, the last data the server has is 16:59:12 US Eastern time.

If you are using the service " SC Historical Data", that is not FXCM data. It has a different source that we do not have any direct control over.

Oh, that is interesting... I unchecked "Allow support for sierrachart data feeds" then refreshed the data at the end of the day and the problem is fixed.

Any plans on fixing the sierrachart historic data? Oh wait, you don't have control over it. NVM... This is just fine!

The Allow Support for Sierra Chart Data Feeds setting is completely irrelevant when using the SC Forex Data (FXCM) service.

The data you had in the chart did not come from the SC Forex Data (FXCM) service. That was clear.
