I am aware that, since bars data is binned, charts can vary slightly for different providers. However, I have come across discrepancies that are just unbelievable (see attached screenshots).
I'm still using the rather limited TradeStation and ProRealTime and I am testing NinjaTrader 7.18 with Barchart data right now. While the first two show pretty similar price data and pivots, Barchart is just totally off, in this case by 6JPY !!! (the screenshots were all taken at the same time)
Now, before I contact Barchart (as NinjaTrader is not responsible for the data) I have a couple of questions:
1. Is there any way how I could have produced these discrepancies through some weird settings or is this a maybe even known issue?
2. Is there any knowledge available on this forum as to which data provider is most similar to TradeStation, so that I don't have to try them all out? (I'm trading way too many strategies and instruments simultaneously, so using TS as external data feed is no sane option.)
Thanks for input!
