100 ticks vs volume  [SOLVED]

Postby Maggie_Swan@hotmail.com » 22 Mar 2011

I plotted a Futures Chart with (1000ticks) per bar.
To my surprise, the volume of these bars are different.
Why?

I plotted a Futures Chart with (1000ticks) per bar.
To my surprise, the volume of these bars are different.
Why?
because each tick represents one transaction,
each transaction can consist of different quantity of contacts.
