Hello,
I am using hourly bars/minute data in MC 8 64 latest version. Data Source is IB. Latest TWS and API 966 are in place.
Sometimes I receive wrong opening prices of the day as the last from day before is somehow duplicated. Affected Futures products are DAX, ESTX50 and GBL. When I delete the minute data and do a backfill all is fine. Collected live data makes trouble.
Screenshots attached. The first collected ticks are also wrong for DAX and GBL, but somehow not for ESTX50.
However this problem did not occur every day. As far as I know only DTB (EUREX) is affected. Thus replication isn't that easy.
This is a serious issue for my trading approach. Please help.
Best

Re: Wrong Opening Prices - EUREX/DTB, Source Interactive
Hello Lantama,
Was the screenshot of minute data for FESX SEP 12 instrument taken after the data has been backfilled?

Re: Wrong Opening Prices - EUREX/DTB, Source Interactive
We are investigating the issue in our environment. I will keep you updated.
Re: Wrong Opening Prices - EUREX/DTB, Source Interactive
Please, it is very dangerous for my trading approach.
However, I cannot give you any proof, but I think it is still related to 'generate new Tick if volume changes' setting.
If toggled on, I miss the closing auction prices @ EUREX/DTB from source IB
If toggled off, I get proper closing auction prices @ EUREX/DTB from source IB, but in this case I think sometimes I receive a duplicated wrong opening price (= closing from day before).
Both would be a bug if I am right. What we need is the best of both worlds
Please keep my posted. Many thanks

Re: Wrong Opening Prices - EUREX/DTB, Source Interactive
I was wrong. I tested it today. Currently all the opening prices for EUREX / DTB futures products GLB, ESTX50 and DAX are wrong. The 'Generate new tick if volume changes' setting makes no difference.Please, it is very dangerous for my trading approach.

Re: Wrong Opening Prices - EUREX/DTB, Source Interactive
Today I receive glitches from IB/DTB feed again - as before in former versions (MC7).
I think this is somehow related to the opening price issue. The feed implementation of DTB/IB source in MC seems to be buggy. IB/TWS is filtering these glichtes as you can see in the chart comparison. Somehow I don't see these glitches in a daily MC chart of the FESX SEP either. Please solve this. Filter the EUREX block trades and the wrong opening ticks in any compression! Minute and Tick compression seems to be missing here.
By the way, when I change the 'generate new tick if volume changes' is this changing directly or do I have to restart anything?
As this issue is about two years old now (new Eurex feed release) I would expect to see any progress. Please.

Re: Wrong Opening Prices - EUREX/DTB, Source Interactive
Hello lantama,
In order to make this setting come into effect MultiCharts and all of its applications should be restarted.
Our engineers are analyzing this behavior.Hello Henry, any news regarding this issue?
"Generate new tick if volume changes" should be enabled in order to avoid spikes from IB.Today I receive glitches from IB/DTB feed again - as before in former versions (MC7).

Re: Wrong Opening Prices - EUREX/DTB, Source Interactive
IB connection has been improved.
Now a new tick will not be generated until the actual opening price is received when the "Generate a new tick if Total Volume changes" is enabled.
You can download an updater corresponding to your MultICharts version from the links below:
