Beta 4 unable to download historical data

[dalebru]

I tried this on two systems, one a clean install with no migration. Tried yesterday and today.
1, Connect to Continuum
2. Load a chart ES 12-15 Day 365 - No problem
3. Open Historical Data, Edit, ES 12-15 Day 2015, shows only Sep 10 and 11
4. Go to Historical Data Load ES 12-15 Day Last and Download the past few months of data.
5. Go back to Edit tab. Still only the two days have been downloaded.

I think that is normal behavior if you have Merge Back Adjusted selected. It takes any data before the ES contract rollover date from the previous contract. ES 12-15 rollover date is 9-10.

You are correct. Behavior in NT 7 is pretty similar (downloaded the entire week).
I learn something every day.

Thanks,

Hello dalebru,

Thank you for your post and RBear for assisting as well,

I can confirm that this would be expected behavior per the rollover date and Merge Policy function.

You can review more information about merge polices from the NinjaTrader 7 help guide, linked below.

See "Understanding Merge Policies"
