Loading Charts NT7 TWS

[webart]

When starting my charts each morning, NT tries to load all of my charts all over again, this hits the IB historic limit very quickly. How can I make NT only load the data that I missed since it was switched off ? It literally takes an hour or more to get all the charts loaded one by one, waiting for the IB time limit to reset each time.

webart, thanks for the report - which is this on the latest NT7 beta 16 with the supported TWS 900.6?

Have you GetDataFromServer under Tools > Options > Data checked?

NinjaTrader would generally load historical data from the provider (if possible) in those cases listed here - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...ricalData.html

Hi Bertrand, Yes, NT16 with supported TWS. Yes that is ticked, also so is Save Data as Historical (so I can save the tick data).

I have 3 instruments, 1 of which needs 12 months data, the others just 3 months (for long term trend lines). TWS disconnects everyday, when I reconnect NT tried to load all of the data for all of the charts, not just the hour or so that I missed. It then takes an hour or more to load them all, and thats if NT dosn't get 'stuck on saving'. I have to go through this every day with NT7, it's just not a useable solution like this.

Thanks for the details webart, will try reproducing your scenario here.

Could unfortunately not reproduce here - please try for example MSFT 5 min instrument session and 100 days back.

1. Disconnect from IB
2. Delete any MSFT data in the HDM present
3. Connect to IB and create the chart above
4. If populated, disconnect from IB and wait 5 min
5. Reconnect to IB it would only reload then the current day as you could check in the Control Center status bar.

What other workspaces including Market Analyzer windows have you perhaps opened that could cause the issue of running so quickly into the pacing limitations?

Thanks
