NEW FEATURES

Autofill of data gaps after a disconnect

Gaps in data are now autofilled without a reload after a disconnect (except for OpenECry). More info here – http://www.multicharts.com/pm/viewissue.php?issue_no=MC-504. To autofill gaps with OpenECry a special registry key needs to be added manually.
Other Features

  • It’s now impossible to play back tick-based resolutions on a time basis (i.e. now impossible to play back a 300 tick chart on a second-by-second basis). This is the correct behavior, and previous incorrect playback options were corrected.
  • Added support for continuous futures that are supplied directly by OpenECry.
  • Added the HTS root for CQG Symbol Dictionary.
  • Slightly changed the “Format Instrument” dialog window.
  • Added TOCOM exchange to MultiCharts.
