isTick() || isRawTick()

[Gavishti]

I've looked in the help file and FAQ. Also ran a quick test, but have not been able to figure out the difference between isTick() and isRawTick(). Will someone please explain the difference?

Thanks.

I cannot figure it out either, in my test, I could only get isRawTick() to work, and the results did not change in RT or Playback with tick charts. isTick() returned false regardless of being in RT or Playback with tick charts.

As far as I know isTick() is true only when the interval is T.
isRawTick() instead is true with all tick based intervals such as 10T, 25V, 20S

Alex,

You've pretty much nailed it. I put in "T" for the interval, and both isRawTick() and isTick() were true as every bar loaded in history. When I changed it to "1T", only isRawTick() was true.

Thank you.
