TPO charts - intraday vs historical data

Dear Sierra,

I'm experimenting with TPO charts with the Sierra/FXCM data feed.

The results of applying the same X years TPO study (default settings, 12 months per profile, 4 ticks increments) to a USDCHF intraday chart and to a USDCHF historical chart are different. Sometimes I even get a very different bell curve.

X = 1,2,3,etc ... tried many

Changing the tick increments in either charts generates no big difference.
Please note the intraday chart is set at 1440 mins per block.
Max historical intradays to download is set at 1095 days.

I get the impression that maybe the intraday chart is only downloading the last 90 days. I don't know how this is possible.

Any chance you can tell me what is the problem?

I'm attaching a screenshot with both charts side by side.

Many thanks,

G

Follow-up...

Tested the intraday chart with multiple periods fixed by time set at 1 month vs the prior one period fixed by time.

Chart starts in 10-31-13.

I can't go beyond that. So it seems that in effect the intraday chart is not downloading the 1095 days I have set up under Data Settings.

Please help.

Many thanks,

G

Pls disregard - I selected "delete all data and download" and problem solved.

Yes, it sounds as though there was not enough data in the Intraday chart. Help topic 42.1 is the relevant help topic for this:
