Missing Tick Charts on Local Algos
26 Aug 2024, 05:45


Hi

I tend to make my entries using tick charts. However, as you can see in the screenshots below, the tick charts are available for algos running in the cloud, but not locally. This means that while I can run the algo from a tick chart, I can't backtest or optimize it the tick data. I have used the MarketData.getBars() method to get tick data, and while I don't get an error, I have no way of verifying it without also being about to select the same tick chart to run the algo on.
