Why do we receive tick when volume is 0

shortwire
Is there any logic governing receiving ticks inspite of no trades taking place.
Lets take an example of a less volatile contract: NICKEL19APRFUT

At 04:27 PM we have a 0 volume candle. However right from 4:27:00 to 4:27:59 we received 32 ticks where there is no change in LTP and no change in volume.

Question is if no trades are happening, why are we receiving the tick? Are these dummy ticks just to keep the candlestick chart so that there would not be any gaps in between.
