1) Nest stream data which ideally should be similar to pi stream seems to be good enough to me for intraday. Its quite similar to icharts. Absolute extremes dont matter for me if its close enough.
2) But you admit that your server has better historical data. I had said this before - How hard is it to update the chart say once a minute with more accurate data overwriting martketwatch stream data? I could have a disconnection or my bandwidth may be shared which can cause tick update loss.
Now that pi is your tool - i cant see any reason why you cant do this. It will then make everyone happy with Pi data and should work even if their net connection is not that good/shared etc.

Yusi, we can stream more ticks, but if the end user doesn't really have good bandwidth, the number of ticks he can accept will be significantly lesser. The live charts will be still plotted based on the ticks the end user has received. If the internet is really good, the live charts will be a lot more accurate.
But like tracerbullet has rightly put,the other option is to backfill server data every once in a while, end of every candle or end of every few candles. We could do this either automatically or given an option to fetch the latest few candles from our server. No one does this presently other than esignal (esignal actually continuously backfills server data). On our list of things to do.
But if someone is using 1mbps + kind of connection, the quality of data is as good or better than most platforms out there.

, I meant login works fine.
