I'd like to report an issue with NT7-B6 while using the MBTrading Forex connection. I have verified the results on two seperate systems (one Vista and one Windows 7) to make sure it is consistent (also performed clean installations of NT7-B6 as well).
Loading and reloading of historical data in NT7-B6 is really slow compared with version 6.5. Loading and reloading 10 days of minute bars takes ~5 secs using version 6.5, but takes an incredible ~140 secs to load the same data in version 7. Both NT versions are installed on the two seperate workstations and reload times are quite consistent.
Whats more, version 7 will not load or reload any historical sec/tick bars. The loading flashed up in the Control center (bottom right) for one sec, and then nothing happens. It blanks the chart screen, and just carries on showing the live data. Version 6 loads the historical data fine, 12-16 secs per 10 days of historical data.
I've tried the two versions of MBT Navigator (the one recommended for 6.5 and seperately the one for 7), the results are consistent across both versions of MBT Navigator.
The account settings are consistent across the two versions, using MBTrading servers for historical data.
It's not a problem with my Internet speed, & I seem to have eliminated the MBTrading servers as the problem. The very slow loading of the data that does load, combined with the no-loading of the tick data seem to be related to NT7-B6 itself.
Anyone else got this type of behaviour, or has this already been reported?
(I know there was an MBTrading connection in a earlier beta version, where no data was coming through at all)
Thanks,
Sc1entia
