MultiCharts 15 Release  [SOLVED]

1. Simulated Trading. Data playback in MultiCharts was completely redesigned and transformed into the trading simulator — you can go back in time and use this time machine to improve your trading strategy. Trading simulator can use regular ask and bid data, as well as depth of market (Level 2) data. With the built-in Market Data Sim data, for a selected number of popular symbols, you can start simulated trading with just a few clicks.
   Find more in our Wiki here.
2. External Alerts. Now you can receive alerts from MultiCharts not only by email, but also in Slack and Telegram.
   With our How to Set Up External Alerts guide you’ll get them working in no time.

A nice feature that appears to have gone is the ability to jump to a specific bar and end all charts on that bar. Then I can run my studies over a shorter period to save time. Then I stop them and click on "Go To Realtime" to go back to the original state to show all the data if I need to. Is it now done a different way? Now I had to manually set the data range for all my charts to that shorter term range, and pin them to the end date, and keep changing the data ranges if I decide to use a longer or shorter period. Is there a way to change the "From" and "To" dates across all charts in one go instead of doing it to each one individually?

Upon upgrade to MC 15, my Historical Data Download, scheduled daily, didn't complete.

There is nothing in the Historical Data Download Scheduler logs;
the Last Run result in Windows Task Scheduler: "The operator or administrator has refused the request (0x0800710E0)".

Windows 11.

Which folder permissions should i check?

1. In QuoteManager → Tools → Historical Data Downloader Scheduler double-check your task settings and rename your task on the Schedule Settings tab.
2. Make sure the Remember password (in the window where you enter your login and password) and Remember my choice (in the License Manager, if you have multiple licenses) boxes are checked. If you don’t see these windows when you open MultiCharts – the boxes are checked.
3. Close all MultiCharts components and make sure there are no MC processes left in the Task Manager → Details tab → Description column.
4. Open the Windows’ Task Scheduler: click the Windows Start and start typing “Task Scheduler”, it’ll pop up.
5. Run your Historical Data Downloader Scheduler task there manually: select it in the Task Scheduler Library there and click Run on the Actions panel.

• Attach log files…;
• Attach minidump for crash analysis;
• Snapshot of the current MC setup;
• Upload collected data to Help Desk;
  uncheck other options and click Send.

With 2 historical data "collects" in progress, when i click on Stop Collecting in the dropdown menu, it shows an "empty" window indicating that no downloads are in progress...i guess the intention was to have an 'aggregated view" of the data downloads, giving ability to selectively cancel some....right?

I've an i9 20 cores CPU, 112 GB of RAM, and 2 RTX 2070 8Gb dedicated video cards. Yesterday I rolled back to MC 14 R10 and the LAGs disappeared. Probably the new SIM engine has a relevant impact on the regular functionality of the platform. MC 15 has a massive CPU and GPU utilization, about twice that of release 14. For now, I can't work with this new release

Just stumbled again on a long-time annoyance with PLEditor:

Say, you have been working in a session with 15-20+ studies open and then closed PLEditor for the night. Your session is remembered and restored to the same state when you open PLEditor the next time. Great!

However, importing studies from a file when PLEditor is closed, 'cleans' up the previous session!

To get back to work, you need to get to the 'recent files' - which has a short memory (of 13, in what order?) - and open them one-by-one.

Asso, PLEditor doesn't remember your "window tiling' preference: it will open scripts in "Cascade", even though my last session was with "Maximize All". ( do we need Cascade anyway?)

Please make our lives easier.

After some days of using the new 15 release, I've had to roll back to the previous version due to continuous LAGs in the DOM and the executions of my trades. My Limits Orders were visible on DOM, but when the trade prices, passed over my limit exit order or entry order, it would stay visible NOT executed for seconds in the same position on DOM even if they were executed and only after many seconds I saw them executed in the DOM and in the order and Position tracker. If I moved my Limit orders higher or lower, it took seconds (sometimes more than 20 seconds) to see the same order in the new position. I use 4 instances of Multicharts, the same Desktops files used for years, created and saved with the previous releases of Multicharts. Instances with 3 or 4 workspaces for each instance/Desktop, based on tick chart analysis, Point charts, Volume analysis, and so ON (NOT only price, but with Volume indicators based on tick analysis). With the previous release, I Had no problem with LAG (MC 14 R10 and before).

PL Editor is extremely outdated. We can write all we want about small changes and tweaks but it won't make any (real) difference. And in reality this is a lot of work to make a good IDE with good functionality.

In my opinion MC can take a shortcut and make an extension for VS Code. With significantly less effort MC will then offer the most popular and powerful IDE. I created a topic for devs to review if it's possible to do that. If you agree, consider voting here: https://www.multicharts.com/pm/public/m ... es/MC-2893

Just upgraded to this version but now it can't read any of my Metastock files
" waiting for data not enough data "
was working fine of the previous version

Just upgraded to this version but now it can't read any of my Metastock files
" waiting for data not enough data "
was working fine of the previous version

other apps can read the MS data without a problem , so it looks like MC has the issue

update ---- installed all the patches and now seems fixed

should be nice with a Powerlangage plug-in

maybe more easy to build only plug-in ...

The fix can be installed using the Update Patch.

Are the update patches incorporated into the current downloadable release or do they still need to be applied on top of it?
