Reloading Data Causes Gaps

Postby skyluck2001 » 08 Sep 2013

Hi,

I am using the latest version of TWS and MC on WinXP. Whenever I reload data during a realtime session, gaps start appearing, ie. some earlier bars go missing. If I reload again, even more data goes missing. This did not happen with the previous version of MC.

Please advise. Thank you.

Regards,
See KL

Please indicate the following:
1. data provider
2. symbol
3. chart resolution
4. have you checked the box for "Download missing historical data"?

Can you post a screen shot?

Hi TJ,

Thanks for the quick response.

The problem seem to have been resolved for now after I unchecked the following under Data Sources/IB Data Feed Configuration/Real-time Data:

- Use server timestamp
- Generate a new tick if total volume changes

I will continue to see if the problem recurs. If it does, I will seek your assistance through this post again. In any case, the answers to your post are as follows:

1. IB
2. HSI
3. 5s
4. Yes

As all gaps have been filled for now, I can't grab a screen shot of the problem. I will if it happens again.

Thank you.
