Plotting futures and ETFs on the same chart

Postby TraderD » 13 Jul 2020

I'm trying to plot e-mini Nasdaq futures (NQ) and SPY on the same chart. When I add SPY as Data 2, the NQ and SPY bars don't line up -- it looks like Data 2 gets shifted to the left by 1 bar, and bar spacing gets wider for both instruments.

Both instruments use daily (non-real time), ascii data. I selected Local time zone for both, and tried various combinations of Sessions for both (default, 24/7, e-mini index futures, regular trading hours, etc), but nothing seems to work. Any ideas?
