Does it worth the trouble of time and expense to get to the detail? will your trading be improved 100% because of it? ... you will have to be the judge. What you've given me here gets me the "gist" of what I'm looking for. It doesn't need to be down to the exact # of contracts as a few here and the...

you've got the right idea... but the execution is a bit tricky, I will explain later. First, you will need to set up a variable (let's call it "overnight.volume"), then start adding the volume to it after the regular session closes (eg. for ES, it is 1615), keep adding to it after each bar, at the ...

Thanks TJ, I'm gonna give this a shot. As I'm not super familiar with writing scripts and such...would this plot something on the price chart like "ONV 123,456" above the point in time I ask it to calculate up to or does it plot at some other location? If I scrolled back several days will it show th...

I'm looking for a way to calculate the volume that occurred from the close of the day session to a certain point in time...let's say 9:00am the following day. I typically chart with constant volume bars so maybe another way to accomplish this is to somehow provide a starting time and ending time and...

Follow up: I spoke with support a couple days ago and they checked into the issue and found that it is a known error and they are working to have it fixed in a future version of MC. If you monitor the symbol through eSignal data manager you'll see a field for total volume which displays the total vo...

You have 2 resolutions on the chart? You have 2 instruments (the same symbol but with 2 different resolutions) on the same chart, and both are volume bar based? The volume at the status line you're talking about is the standard volume indicator? If so, try to do the same, but with minute bars to se...

Hi. Try this: Mouse right button over a chart, open Format Window, and under Status Line, check Enable Tracking Mode . Regards, Fernando OK, now this gets even weirder... I have 2 different resolutions on the chart and they normally show the same volume in the status line behind the desciption for ...

Well, in case anyone is curious or attempts a similar switch in the future, here's the follow up... I renamed each of the symbols in the database to match the eSignal symbol name and changed the data connection to eSignal and it worked! The historical tick data I pulled from TS is still there and eS...

My charts use bars built on contract volume. The bars are being created and plotted properly but the volume in the status line does not display properly, or at all really. Stranger still is I switched data providers yesterday from TS to eSignal and the volume displayed in the status line is the volu...

BUMP!

Has nobody does this before? Am I the first person with Multicharts trying to switch data providers from TS to eSignal that wants to preserve the data currently in the local database?

Any help or stories of your experiences would be greatly appreciated!

I've gone in and downloaded all the data I need from TS and I'll have to wait to sign up for eSignal to create the new symbols, but I was wondering if it were possible to bypass the import/export process altogether. What I mean...is can I simply go in to quotemanager and change the info for each of ...

There is a more serious problem you haven't thought of yet, which is that TS's continuous contracts e.g. @ES or @ES.D are point adjusted, while eSignal's continuous contracts e.g. ES #F are not. Thus, at the same date in the past, if it is beyond the current front contract, they won't have the same...

I'm currently with TS for my data and have been saving that data to the local MC database. All charting I perform requires tick data to build constant volume bars and for several symbols I have approximately a year of historical data. Typical minute-based intraday data will not work. I'm looking to ...
