Seede, Don't know if this will help - maybe a starting point. Using EOD data the following could alert you to any disparities between an Index (benchmark) barcount and the count of the current symbol. I have found instances, in Yahoo ASX data where the Index count is erroneous (public holidays were padded in EOD data). I quickly tried to find a way to automatically set the static variable to the Index BarCount but staticvarSet is a bit finicky as to what it will allow as input so I haven't managed to achieve that. Possibly you can adapt the idea to RT. I think in real time your alert will be going off like crazy. brian_z
