changing to NT7?

[subterfuge]

I haven't been keeping up to date with the whole Nt7 thing, although i see that it is now available for public download.

Am i right in thinking that there is now a way to view a continuos contract? like, say CL for the whole year on one chart.

Will my NT6.5 indicators work with 7? I cant convert them myself and so there is little point in me changing over if they dont.

If i was to try the change, and they didn't work and I didn't like it, can i still go back to 6.5 without losing my indicators and stuff?

that's all i can think of for now.
cheers.

subterfuge, correct continuous contracts are available per default now with NT7.

I would believe 80% of the indicators should work directly, some would need code changes to be made compatible with the new / changed overloads.

You can install 6.5 and 7 side by side and switch seamlessly over should you feel the need to.

Connected to my sim feed,
Price is sitting at an old price and not moving, but bid/ask info is live and moving and upto date??

edit: this pic was supposed to include the bid/ask of charttrader showing 83.30 to show the disscrepancy, but it doesn't show up when you just select 'print chart'

How do i get upto date prices on teh chart?

Are you using the default sessions? Those would not show the current data as we speak now as it's out of the regular session, try the ETH or Default ones please.

ok, i found it.
In the data series from right clicking on the chart.
Working now.
Next, to see if my indicators work.

D'oh

'"Import failed, The NinjaScript Archive File may contain duplicate methods names that already exist on your PC or there is a required file missing on either your PC or in the import archive"

Looks like i'll have to stick to 6.5

Thanks anyway.

Not necessarily, you would just need to find out which duplicate files cause a conflict here...for example the T3 indicator is now a system default one, if you're import contains one of the custom ones floating around from 6.5 you would see this issue...
