yeah. I'm getting it too. And I'm using completely different software/data feed than you are.
From what I understand it's an Island and Nasdaq reporting issue.
What I did today was just stick to NYSE. To filter out bad ticks I enter "XOM.N" which just gives me NYSE prints and quotes.
But now the orders are slow to cancel and fill. I just took a smack in the ass (made $ but couldn't cancel stop in time)..so I think I might call it a day. Don't need slow cancels in this sort of market.
Good luck.

I have eSignal, too, and this has now been discussed on numerous threads.
THe wild bars are from the late prints on NMS trades. THe charting program just draws the bars as the prints appear, so they are unusually wide, and jump back and forth 10, 20, 50 or more cents at a time sometimes.
