Hi, the two images show historical data from Walt Disney stock (physical stocks, not CFDs). According to the broker, the candlesticks are based on the last price only and include only last prices from the main trading sessions (not pre and after market hours). I displayed the BID and ASK price lines and sometimes the BID/ASK prices are quite far away from the High/Low of the candle.
Is my assumption correct that for the historical BID/ASK price lines the minimum/maximum values for the chosen timeframe (here D1) are taken?

Yes Alain, that's right. It says "Chart Mode=by last price" in the symbol's properties.
However, can anyone confirm if the historical BID/ASK price lines are based on the min/max values? thank you
