My strategy is set for 60 minute bars and I have noticed that a new bar is not displayed until the end of the time period for that bar. Can I set something so that the new bar is displayed at the start of the 60 minute period for that period and is updated from time to time during that bar.

The new bar is displayed as incomplete (partial) bar if you turn on Streaming data on the chart. Please see "Streaming Charts" in the WL7 Help > Charts.

For my strategy I would like to see steaming data for the latest bar. Would it be possible to offer an option that could do this, albeit at extra cost.

WL7 already does this when you activate streaming, are you not seeing a partial, updating, streaming bar when you turn streaming on?? 🤔

But isn't just for showing Chart and not in the strategy.

Would you like the strategy to be able to interact with the streaming data and partial bar? We already have that in our feature request list!

OK, sounds like a plan. I already subscribe IQFeed service for WL6, is there a way I can use that service in WL7?

But in order for streaming to work, the user has be subscribed--separately--to DTN's (IQFeed) real-time data service as well. That's an extra monthly cost. Real-time service is not included in their base subscription plan. (Some users don't need streaming.)

You can't get streaming to work on WL without the real-time IQFeed subscription. WL needs that real-time data feed (IQFeed) to do streaming and the partial bar.

Perhaps the IQFeed provider should indicate if a real-time feed is available in the first place before letting the user activate streaming data.

Superticker's right! But I believe DTN does offer a trial account, at least they used to. And to connect to IQFeed in WL7 please visit this page:

https://www.wealth-lab.com/extension/detail/IQFeed

You can download and install this for a 14 day free trial if you have the Monthly or Annual WL7 subscription Plan, or it comes at no charge with the Premium Plan.
