Please be aware that some brokers reduce the tick volumes stored on some of their servers
This means any volume based strategies and indicators will not work as expected
REDUCED TICK VOLUMES EXAMPLE
In this first image we see the tick volumes have all been reduced to less than 185 per bar even during the busy NY session.
The average volume of 150 ticks per bar is near the peak volume at all times. Any indicators detecting variations in volume will be unreliable at best
VALID TICK VOLUMES EXAMPLE
In this second image we see tick volumes from another broker showing large variations at different times of the day as expected
In this example we see volumes increase to 12000 ticks per bar in the NY session from the average of 2000 ticks per bar
