Evaluating MotiveWave community edition, connected to TD Ameritrade, sometimes a bar is extremely elongated and sometimes there are several elongated bars. I don't see this for the same chart/time period in Ninjatrader 8 when connected to TD Ameritrade. I really like MotiveWave better than Ninjatrader 8 in most ways but I get these messed up charts a little too often. I have tried deleting the instrument and reloading it and deleting local data, but none of that has helped. I've attached a really strange example...

This is not the MW platform issue. You are seeing off hours noise. The same view from the TOS platform. Uncheck the "Extended hours" to see a cleaner chart.

Cheers.

I'm having the exact same issue with TOS, Is the uncheck hours box on TOS or motivewave, thanx!!!
 
Yep, thanks, and I did figure that out later, but interestingly, Ninjatrader is able to filter out the noise.
