Hey guys,
Can someone else with a Barchart subscription check something for me, and let me know if I'm nuts?
Look at GNK (NYSE) on 3/19, at 10 AM exactly. Barchart (1 minute bars) showed it spiking at about 14.40 - 14.50 at that point.
My backtesting results were haywire, compared to my real-world results... and I couldn't figure out why. But then I looked on Google finance, and double checked with TDA back-up feed... and the results are WAY off. (Well, about 10 minutes off.)
On TDA, it looks like that 14.40-14.50 spike happened at 9:50 or so... and was down to 14.05 by 10:00 AM.
That's a pretty significant difference from a backtesting point of view...
