You can certainly program it yourself, but you'll likely won't be able to display the graphs on the broker's platform, which means you'll have to re-implement from scratch all the indicators, etc. that you want to use on that timeframe, along with a way to display them.
The good news is that, at those timeframes, the market is so noisy that it makes no sense to use indicators. Still, it sounds like a lot of work.

these work, but clunky - EAs do not run from them, best to use Ninja Trader
ps: There is a tick collector that runs ahead of these - I'll have to find the link.
Same link, post 19.
Open as Offline charts.

Thanks Kenz!
Question: Do the 10 sec offline charts work without the tickdata files in post 19, or are they mandatory? If mandatory, which folders do they go in to?
" Average traders look to the left, great traders look to the right."
These are indicators so go in the ind folder. Open a 1-minute chart (ok, it could be anything i just like 1-min) and place the A tick collector on it. Let it run 5 - 10 minutes to collect data - maybe more time if during slow period. Set the default switch for new file. Then place any one (or all) of the hst builders on the same chart. They should stay in-sync with the master, but sometimes things go bump in the night and they have to be restarted. Don't bet the farm on these staying current. Mostly they do, but they also have bugs and quit working properly sometime. The offline charts run scripts and indis ok but EAs do not work well, sometimes not at all. I don't know if 4-5 digit is needed in them or if they work ok as is - haven't looked at them in a while. I use NT - lots less hassle.
