Big improvement of MС14 - Data DownLoader

Postby TCust » 12 Oct 2020

Finally, you were able to do it in 5 years, so Thank you ! :D

It would be nice if you added the following buttons:

1 Pause the download, if a other Chart needs to be updated or downloaded in the MC itself
2 Cancel the current task for downloading data.
3 Progress indicator shows how many tickers were loaded from the task - Download 65 From 672

And so in General it's not bad at last you heard us ! :idea:

I don't know....it is not a feature that seems available to everyone. Honestly, some clients have working licenses and others don't. What kind of screwed up idea was that.

Maybe this is some temporary bug with their licenses and they will fix it. Historical data loader is generally a basic function for any trading software that has at least some database with quotes.

I tried to launch a Portfolio trader, it starts, it doesn't write anything, but I don't have any strategies for it

Hello TCust,

Data series in MultiCharts can be built during historical data downloading. You can also cancel the task and then run it again.

You can cancel the current task for downloading data in QuoteManager:

1. For a particular symbol please do it by right-clicking it and selecting Cancel Loading Historical Data.
2. To cancel the whole task please go to QuoteManager -> Instrument -> Download Historical Data menu to cancel.

To see how many tickers were loaded in QuoteManager please right-click on any column header -> select Columns -> check Historical Data Download Status box so it is displayed. Our dev team will consider improving it in one of the future releases.

Hello hughesfleming,

If you do not have this feature, you can get a license that includes the Advanced Strategy Pack. Please visit this page for more details.
