    IF I understand the question, a tick or CV bar will rarely exactly equal a 1 minute bar but you can certainly approximate a 1 minute bar.

    Try taking the average volume of 1 minute bars and use that number for the CV. For a tick chart take the average number of ticks per CV bar.

    If you don't have a one minute you could always start with say a 5 minute and divide by 5.
