Latest Daily Bars mssing
Latest Daily Bars mssing
I think that there is a bug in the data handling
The setup
MC v5 beta 2, with eSignal Datafeed
Today I noticed missing daily bars for every stock symbol I tried.
The sequence of events prior to this is following:
Sometime in the middle of Us stock trading session I put my computer to sleep. Then, when after the trading session was over I returned to my computer and noticed that _TODAY'S _DAILY_BAR are missing on every stock symbol I tried. Everyt other data is OK, incl. tick bars, minute, hour1y bars. All present except daily. I did not try weekly though.
I found the temporary workaround to recover the missing bar, but that is not fun at all, as it's pain in you know what.
Opened the quoteManager, right click on the desired Stock Symbol, then select "Delete Data...".
Next, went back to Workspace where with Daily Chart, and first, changed the resolution to hour1y, and then back to Daily.
That is it. The Daily bar now appears on the chart.
I included the screenshots of the cahrts FYI (The missing daily bar is 20-Jan-08. The previous bar is 16-Jan-08. The following three days are holidays: 17-Sat, 18-Sun, and 19 - US holiday-exchange closed)
I did notice few times before the latest daily bar missing, but did not pay attention to it, as I was not using the Multicharts in productions. Now, when I am ready to trade with it, it becomes critical. Could you please point me to the right direction to how to avoid this behaviour in the future or when this can be fixed (if this is bug)?
Thanks

Re: Latest Daily Bars mssing
I have had similar problem (MC with interactive data feed). The minute charts work great but daily/weekly do not update. I have to forcibly refresh. So now, I use MC only for minute and second charts. I thought the problem was with IB feed ...I think that there is a bug in the data handling

Does the problem only manifest itself only when your computer goes into the hybernate mode? The thing is that we have never studied MC's behavior after hybernation, so we've no answer to your question at this point. I have asked our engineers to see what happens under hybernation. In the meantime, please use ctrl+R to recover the missing bar.

That's right - few hours after the US markets closed.I am assuming you noticed this problem after hours.
flipflopper,This is an issue that I have worked with Marina on and should be resolved in the next beta release.
Can you please point me to the topic where it's (was) discussed?
Patiently looking forward for a solution :wink:
Thanks.
Re: Latest Daily Bars mssing
I did not pay close attention to this issue till now, as I was not using the MC in production. Happened one or two times before. All I can tell.Does the problem only manifest itself only when your computer goes into the hybernate mode?
Also, Can not imply for sure whether it was sent to hibernate mode, or a sleep mode. But I do remember that I pressed "Win+L" key to lock the windows screen, before leaving the desk. What is certain is at that time, just before, or just after, the network connection was cut. I usually switch it off when leaving my workplace for extended period of time. Few hours later, after the market, when returned to the computer, daily bars were missing.

Hi geizer,
1. There is indeed a problem with daily data for eSignal's stocks after the markets close. Because of the way daily data is requested in MC and because daily stock data is not available on eSignal's historical servers for some time after the markets close, you can see the current daily bar missing. This problem will be fixed in the next MC version.
2. As for hybernation, we don't know what its effects on MC's work are.

My MC - Version 5.0 Beta 2 (Build 1781) - has a similar problem as nuno-online's MC does. Not only the latest daily bars are missing sometimes but also in-between daily bars are missing sometimes. Screenshot attached. My data feed is Transact.
After refreshing (ctrl+R) some of the missing bars (not all) get finally plotted, but MC fails to plot historical bars. Screenshot attached.
I hope this gets fixed in the newest beta.

For providers who do provide daily data:Hi Tresor,
This is a bug that only manifests itself when plotting daily data from providers who, like TransAct, do not provide daily data. The bug will be fixed in the upcoming release.
I assume during market hours the latest daily bar is made of realtime intraday data.
Is this latest daily bar (made of realtime data) replaced by the official daily data from the provider as soon as it is available?

I don't know about that, what I know is that I need to recall the chart every time a new day begins so the previous daily bar is properly plotted.For providers who do provide daily data:

But for example, today, Saturday, I had friday's (yesterday's) daily bar in the chart and now I've just recall it and that same bar disappear. Now, my ES last daily bar is the February 12th bar. The same happen with EURUSD.FXCM.
Calling daily stock charts, GE, MSFT and INTC are showing this last friday bar, February 13th. Apparently this is a futures and forex issue?
I use IQFeed.
