Zen Fire only provides real-time. No history is available from this data feed.How do we get historical data to load using Zenfire?
You can find the information on symbols here: http://www.ampfutures.com/contract_specs.htmlAlso, is there a list of symbols and exchanges for Zenfire?
Let me know if you have any further questions.
Regards.
Zenfire does provide historical tick and minute data. It does not provide historical daily data. It is easy to construct daily bars from the minute data you can use 405 minute or 1425 minute bars instead.
Thanks for implementing the feed really appreciated it but it would be great to support historical data too!

As far as i know, the historical data is provided by the "NT historical market data server".Zenfire does provide historical tick and minute data.
NT collects the ZenFire data and provides it as historical data for ZenFire and TT users.
Btw the ZenFire EUREX data sucks, it's only snapshot data (max 4 updates/sec) and no real volume! (always 99)

zenfire history
Hi Marina,
providing a ZenFire history server to your customers is a great idea, thanks for bringing it up & considering it! I'm sure you get plenty of votes for this
Thank you,
cosmic

ZenFire feed & SSL connection
I installed the Zenfire datafeed dll and then activated Zenfire in the MC Quote Manger Tools/DataSources. I got a trial username and pw from the Mirus website, but an SSL connection path is needed to complete the ZF feed activation in MC. Mirus techie told me the SSL comes from TSSupport. Help, i really want to test some code in MC using Zenfire.

ZenFire connection
Ignoring the SSL issue for the moment since no one at TSSUPPORT seems to know the answer, here is what i get in the Quote Manager Event Log when creating a chart using Zenfire and ESU8
Connecting to Zenfire
Connecting to real-time data for ESU8.CME
Market Data Connection Opened
Well, now, this looks all well and good, but at the top of the chart is the message "No data"
So, the question is what is wrong? Is the symbol wrong? Does Zenfire have data on Sunday for the ES?
Would someone who has successfully made the Zenfire connection step in here and offer some information on their experience? Many Thanks.

finally got data flow from Zenfire, account type had to be set to Live not Sim per a previous post. Still don't know about the SSL, guess it doesn't matter.

Any folder works for the SSL certificate field?
The explanation is still incomplete for many computer users.
Maybe your programmers understand, but the users don't.
Would you mind explaining thoroughly how this SSL feature works?
Is an SSL certificate required?
Where does it come from, TSSUPPORT, Mirus-Zen-Fire, Verisign, other?
When does it get installed?
Is an SSL automatically assigned and then stored in the specified folder?
Your answer implies that the SSL feature is not implemented and the folder can be empty.
It would be helpful if the Readme.txt in the zip file had complete procedural explanations for the setup including whether the account has to be Sim or Live. Apparantly a Mirus/Zen-Fire demo account is a Live account not a Sim account. Mirus tech support for MC does not exist, or so they say. MultiCharts is not listed on their site as supported software. Also free Mirus/Zen-Fire username and passwords can be obtained at this url http://www.mirusfutures.com.

Mind Reading
OK, maybe you are saying that the SSL certificate is not used on Mirus/Zen-Fire DEMO accounts, but maybe is used on REAL accounts? Or maybe it is optional?

In the 'SSL certificates path' field you can specify any folder located on
your computer for either sim or live account.
Here's why:
This field was given to us as required for to receive data from zen fire in Multicahrts. However, later it turned out that the data feed does not use this field at all. This is why it is enough to specify any folder in the 'ssl certificates path'. It's not something that we invented. Nor can be do anything to make sure it is really used.

I am having trouble installing the Zen Fire dll on Vista Ultimate. As Kelly Simon mentioned, the bat file does not work. I have tried to register the dll manually, but I am having problems.
What should I put in the command line in vista ultimate 64?
I attached a picture with the error message. I am logged in as an administrator.

Kelly,
I figured it out!!!! In Vista, there is this horrible demon called "User Account Control." Everything is running fine and the ZF datafeed is working in MC quote manager.
I found a web site which told me how to turn off UAC in the secpol.msc

ocm1,
is it possible that you are missing the contract month, too? Shouldn't it be something like 6EU8. At least this is the way it works for the ES.
Regards,
ABC

Hello Zen-Fire users,
I have a problem with the Zen-fire feed. It does not backfill data. When I shut down my MC for an hour, then my MC is unable to collect the one hour missing data into my MC. Please see the screenshot of ES. Is there any solution to this problem?

Actually that's a pretty good question! Maybe people want tip top execution and data completeness even if they are not scalpers After all saving a tick is still a saving.Nick,
Thank you.
NEXT QUESTION:
Amongst the topics which have run more than a month, this one, with more than 1250 views per month, is probably the most popular.
What on earth are so many wanna be scalpers doing with MultiCharts?
