Hello guys,

I am using since a few Heiken Ashi (smoothed or not) and better line break bars in my system.
But there is something really strange that impeaches me from trading correctly :
I compared my chart with those of another trader who has the same settings and his charts are different.
So I reload historical data and then my charts are correct. But I can do it every 5 minutes and i get a new chart with slightly different bars.

Anyone has an idea why this happens in NinjaTrader?

My technology is Zen-Fire.

I attached the better line break file I am using.

Thanks a lot for help!

Raph

No, this is more a data issue or perhaps the way the bars are calculated.

Look at the screenshots. Ninja support pretends that any other chart different from 1 tick will result in the same issue.
Then why give the opportunity to load charts greater than 1 tick?

Thanks.
