Everytime I open the symbol ZB June 06 after restarting the computer
MC is downloading the same dates for the symbol from the IB TWS. Every time the whole day of the 14th April (for example) is downloaded like the database is not keeping this data from previous downloads. It always takes a while to open this chart.
What can I do?
Thank you!
IB DOWNLOADS ALWAYS ALTHOUGH DATABASE IS UPDATED

I have to be sure that I dont miss any data,
that is why you cannot call this a workaround. When your computer is down for 5 minutes you have to download this 5 minutes of data.
But the data is already downloaded from the IB TWS. But for some reason MC is ignoring this. Not for the whole Dataseries but for some Days within the dataseries (or some hours,minutes)....

Does this toggling of the Preferences change the ONLINE back to ON DEMAND for all open charts or only for charts that are opened after the change?A work around that I do, (if you have all the data) specially on indexes from IB is to set preferences from "On Demand" to "On Line" for my workspaces with indexes.
Works for me, after uploading that particular index workspace, I set the preferences back to On Demand.

To enable a different dataserver mode for an already opened chart, it must be reloaded (Ctrl+R). Charts opened or created anew after the mode change are by default in the new mode.
Please try sending the logs to akramer@tssupport.com, I'll make sure they're forwarded to relevant developers.

I do mine differently... (please tell me if I am doing this right)A work around that I do, (if you have all the data) specially on indexes from IB is to set preferences from "On Demand" to "On Line" for my workspaces with indexes.

I would first start MC with no workspace.
I then turn on the On Demand mode...
Open the quote manager... and let it run for a few minutes.
The On Demand mode supposed to check for and download missing data.
After a few minutes... and seeing that the quote manager has received a few quotes... then I switch back to On Line mode.
I would then open the workspaces... and the graphs will come up quickly.
I shut off the computer at night. I assume this way the On Demand mode would catch up all the trades I missed during the night (which I think amount to only few hundred contracts). Am I correct?
OK, so if I was up to date on, say, DAX, from IB last night, but want to open a chart this morning, say, 30 minutes AFTER the open, what should I do to avoid having to wait hours for MC to completely download AGAIN my 30 days of data to create the Range Bars I need to trade??
This is a major problem.
If I have ALL the charts I MAY need open (because I don't know what will be active), then my CPU is maxed out and the charts get behind, but if I wait to open a chart when I need it then I cannot trade because it takes holurs to get uptodate.
Guys, what is the answer?

Hi momentum,
it is defenitely a bug that needs to be fixed. I am sure there is no workaround you could use. Using an other connection mode always leaves the danger that you will trade on uncomplete chart-data.
Besides that if you trade range bars you are placing your beds on
incorrect chart data. Range Bars needs to be fixed as well.
This leaves just one alternative: hope they will fix both problems soon.
Cheers
