1/ On average, When I get 5400 tics for one day with multicharts 4.0, I get only 4200 tics with multicharts 5.0
![Exclamation :!:](./images/smilies/icon_exclaim.gif)
2/ The downloading froze 3 times as I downloaded EURUSD, it was taking arround 1 minute per day downloaded !
It seem to happens, as the cache data is finished reading, then he send the request to get the data which are not in the cache. Then the process froze.
I hope this will help to improve Multicharts 5.0 and your excellent work.
