Daily NQ bars (from IB) cannot be displayed correctly/fully

Postby rc76 » 29 Nov 2020

Dear MC community,

I have used the IB data source for my Daily NQ bars, but it seems the bars are not displayed fully, i.e:
- There are gaps between bars, which there shouldn’t be when compared with TS’s daily NQ bars, as shown
- I have also attached NT’s daily NQ bars, which is sourced from IB too, where there is no gap
- Therefore I think the issue should be from Multicharts, and related to the settings in MC.net?

Please find below my connection setting to IB:

I have also tried to change the session time of NQ from “Default” to “24x7”, but nothing changed and gap still exist.

It will be great if you can give me a hand on how to fix this issue.
Much appreciated
Richard

I also just tried MC12, it has the same issue.

This is a very obvious issue, makes me believe it shouldn't be a system bug but my setting is wrong...

I just build the daily graph from min bars, than it works.

But is there a way to do it without building it from min bars? (It takes forever to just to download one symbol of 1 year of min data ...)
