Oy,

I just noticed something very disturbing or perplexing or both.

When I posted details of my experimental 'Range Factor':

Oil (WTI0109) had 332 days in the chart, ADX indicated a range for 6 of those days, and the 'Range Factor' was calculated to be 55, based on this information.

I've just looked at the same chart now and noticed that there are 467 days in the chart, ADX indicated a range for 31 of those days, and the 'Range Factor' is now calculated to be 15 based on THIS information.

BUT I ONLY CREATED THAT DATA ON TUESDAY THIS WEEK!!!

So HOW did my Oil chart pick up an extra 132 days between Tuesday and today???

I've checked all the other charts and they are correct i.e. no changes other than the days that have passed but this concerns me deeply.

OK: Oil is still 'top of the pops' but how can 132 days of data (allowing for the days that have passed since Monday) simply 'appear' 'as if by magic'??? What's even MORE worrying is WHERE have they been added!!!

Regards,

Edit:

'The plot thickens'!!!

I've just worked out that the number of bars being displayed in the daily charts, as well as the data start dates, differ depending on whether your chart 'Style' is set to 'ASK' or 'BID'!!!

And here's where it get's REAL strange:

It's ONLY the indices and Oil that exhibit this 'anomaly'. I've checked the forex pairs and some individual stocks and everything appears 'normal'.

I've sent an email to Delta requesting an explanation. Obviously I'll post details of the outcome of this request here when I get the same back from them!!!

And it's SO strange you know:

I noticed before that when I was using the ASI (SIS) on the Dow: when I switched between 'BID' and 'ASK' the indicator would appear to 'jump' (although the actual 'plot' or 'shape' of the ASI was still the same). At the time I thought it was 'just me' and really didn't bother with it. Well: I'm NOW bothered!!!
