Here's today's NT problem...I went back and was going through my notes when I decided to check my 6A work on consumption candles. So I followed price up and left. I see this M60 pullback on 24 Oct 13 and wanted to find the original sell level/consumption candle. Rather than breaking down my M60 chart to M30 or lower, I simply opened a new, unlinked 6A 06-14 chart on M30, five days of data, ending 25 Oct 13. The only indicator I added to the M30 chart is the PFA Ray Label. So on the M30 chart I located the top of the consumption candle at 9691 (right image below). When I went to mark the candle on my M60 chart, the same point is at 9591--a 100-pip difference! I suspect the M60 chart is correct, but I have to wonder why the data is so far off. Anyhow, this is just posted because I found it curious. I may send this to NT Support and see what they say. --Patrick
