I installed both MC and AB under same computer to connect IB as data source. Sometimes I found MC piloted incorrect bar.
Refer to the attached chart, the bar at 1:00 am was incorrect in MC, anyone has experience on this? Instead of manually correct the data, can I request MC to get small period data again instead of delete all cached/downloaded data?

You can reload the data.
You do not have to delete the cache.

Re: Incorrect bar in MC 12
That means you are requesting too much data.Already tried, but doesn’t work. The chart always displays “backfilling” and the “Reload All Data” option is dimmed.
You must be getting "Pace Violation" messages.
IB has imposed limitations on how much you can download within a certain time.
You can purchase more data from IB if you need faster download.

Re: Incorrect bar in MC 12 [SOLVED]
Hi Henry,
Before make this post, I have already tired to reload the chart, but no luck.
However, when I delete the data and clear cache and request data from provider again, the chart issue is gone.
Do you know the root cause? I may be a criterial issue on autotrade if bar generated wrong but data source is correct

Re: Incorrect bar in MC 12
You need to write notes on the picture to explain/illustrate the problem. The charts by themselves do not tell anything.
Re: Incorrect bar in MC 12
I described the case at the beginning of this post, my new post refers the same case.
MultiCharts occasionally display incorrect bar, need to refresh to make it correct, it isn’t related the data source issue. As discussed in above post, I tried to use same data source under both MC and AB, when MC appears incorrect bar, AB can still display correctly.
From my new post EFDD330F-2FE5-4418-811F-D550BDB5E150.jpeg is incorrect bar around 8:50, I need to refresh to make it correct (see CFA9AAB7-81C3-4CA8-888F-FA4D19EEB860.jpeg)

Re: Incorrect bar in MC 12
Usually I couldn’t reproduce the issue, but just occasionally happen.
I use 1 min bar, based on my observation, when the market move very quick, it will be higher probability to reproduce it.
Based on my testing as said above, it’s not data source issue, since both MC and AB running same data source, but only MC happen.
I’m also thinking if it’s related to my computer performance due to heavy loading when market move quick, don’t know how to prove it, but at least AB is okay on my testing.
