Trying to merge ascii and esignal data into 1 chart

Postby canaussieuck » 06 May 2012

Following the wiki instruction here:http://www.multicharts.com/trading-soft ... ngle_Chart
to try and merge my historical ascii data for the HSI into eSignal real time data and although it lists the instruments correctly under 'format instruments', the RT data will not show up on my chart, only the historical.

What the heck am i doing wrong?

I followed the instructions word for word.

Cheers,


CanOz

Hello CanOz,

In Multicharts please go to File tab->Preferences->Data server mode
Make sure you are in online mode, "download missing historical data" is enabled

Are you able to plot a chart with real-time eSignal data without merging feature enabled?

Online, and DL missing data is enabled.
Yes, no problem i can plot any chart with eSignal, or IB, or ASCII with the box left unchecked, or checked.
