Given that there are 420 trading minutes in a day, is there an
issue where your timeframes overlap multiple days because 420 is
not an even multiple of 15, 60, etc? Or does the last bar of
the day just cover a smaller time interval than the rest?
Thanks!
yes for daily charts that trade with the cash market, there are
390 min in the day.
however for futures charts that trade 23 hrs a day you can use
1440 min charts, which essentially gives you a daily bar. Why
would one do that if it ends up looking just like a daily chart?
Because you can set custom time sessions that can be useful
that's are two screens of many many many charts my friend. Have
screens with multiple level 2's, quote screens, systems of course,
and probably 50 Chrome browser windows
