How to prevent adding data to database ....

Postby bensat » 17 May 2016

... where to trade occurred due to holiday market close ?

Version : MultiCharts64 Version 9.0 Release (Build 11210)

Yesterday Dax Futures were closed due to holiday, while Buxl/Bund/Boble/Schatz && DJEuroStoxx Futures were trading on EUREX . CQG keeps providing data in Dax futures as OHLC = Close Friday @9878.5 in all time frames > Tick, Min & Daily and this data gets stored in the QM.

Daily data > Dax Future

Minute data > Dax Future
Image

Tick data > Dax Future
Image

I can't add the 05/16 to Germany's holiday list, as it would have consequences in showing no data for Buxl/Bund/Boble/Schatz && DJEuroStoxx Futures as well. Further I tried to delete this tick in the QuoteManager by erasing the cache, deleting the data for the 05/16 etc, but it keeps adding this tick all the time.

How can I prevent the Quotemanager to download this tick ? Why CQG is sending this tick out ? Any quick help & advice is much appreciated. Thank you.

Regards

Ben

Hello Ben,

That is a known CQG API issue. The only way around in your specific case is changing holidays in any Holiday List to a dedicated list for the Dax Futures only. Then create a new fake exchange (or modify an existing one) and select the holiday list you have edited for the Dax Futures for it. Then select this exchange for the Dax instrument. Now plot a chart for Dax.
