1. It seems as though when I load a futures chart it will ONLY plot historical data, and new incoming data will not be charted. I noticed this because...
2. I left a Renko chart open all night, and no data was populated on the chart. I opened a new, normal time based chart in the morning, and the overnight data was on it. However, there did not appear to be any live data drawing on the chart again. And when trying to compare this chart to a newly reloaded Renko chart, I noticed...
3. That the Renko chart displayed a vastly different price from the time based chart, a price was quite some time in the past. There HAD been subsequent price accumulation which should have drawn new bars, but no bars were being drawn in Renko.
I'm a little confused, and I think it might be related to the fact that I'm brand new to the platform, and don't REALLY know how the data feeds work, yet. I only recently began testing a strategy via paper trading after having opened an account. I had previously been testing it using the demo data feed, and when I got my new info just replaced the demo info with the new. I suspect there is something glaringly obvious I am missing due to being new to NT, especially considering it took me 15 minutes to figure out I need to ENABLE a strategy after adding it to a chart.
Thanks in advance for any help that can be offered.
