Troubleshoot partial import of tick data with Ascii import

Postby davidgur111 » 01 Jun 2013

Hi all,

I imported tick data with Quote Manager of a single day of a stock (attached the file) - around 50K lines.
When using it in MultiCharts it seems to get only the last 1-2 hours of the day.
Tried to troubleshoot that around that hour - didn't see anything suspicious (ovelapping etc.)

1. Can you tell what's wrong with the file?
2. is there out there any automatic tool that can validate data to be imported to Multicharts?

Thanks!

Hello davidgur111,

Double click on the symbol in QuoteManager->Sessions->make sure the session settings cover the time of the ticks from your ASCII file.
In MultiCharts go to Format->Instrument->Settings tab->make sure "Default" Session and the proper time zone are set.
You can check the data you have stored in the instrument if you right click on the symbol in QuoteManager->Edit data.

I would also recommend you to update to MultiCharts .NET 8.7 beta 2.
