NT8B5- Playback-Market Replay locks up after enabling all strategies

[sledge]

I never really reported - but it is still present and have seen it on previous version.

My desktop did it earlier today.
Now Laptop #1 did it.
Laptop #2 has DID not do it.

Nothing in trace/log is different on the laptops.

In both cases, I connected to Playback - M.R., changed date to 1/20/2014, and then added each strategy in the Control Center Strategies Tab.

I then selected ALL the strategies (mouse click at top or bottom, then shift and mouse click to select all), and then right clicked to ENABLE.

It looks like the same NT8 flashes happen - except the one ends up with a HourGlass and I can't control it. CPU at 0% so nothing is happening.

The only work around I've found is to enable 1 at a time.

Well, this time I tried something different (rather than restart)- I was able to disconnect from Playback, reconnect to playback, change the date, and enable all the strategies all at once.

Hi Sledge,

Thanks for the post.

I am unable to recreate this behavior using the built-in sample strategies.

Would you be willing to send me the strategies you are using so I can test further? If so, please mail them in to PlatformSupport[AT]NinjaTrader[DOT]com.

Please reference me, Patrick G, in your email.

It did it with this strategy. ES 09-15, strategy applied to 4 range and 1 minute.

On subsequent attempts, it hasn't done it, and I've hit it hard with every which way that I thought I did tonight... (There's one more attack I need to (have playback take a trade, then come back in and try)).

I did find a new issue. I will post that in a separate thread.

Appears to be random on this machine... nothing I can reproduce. Will try later on other boxes.

On my other boxes - it was so bad that I just gave up and enabled 1 at a time because it was every time on restart. After 3x, you just give up.
