Did you guys experience a problem around 10:30AM EST on this data server? Historical data seems to be cut around that time and don't seem to be getting newer data. This is similar to the 8PM bug I am having with BETA6 which is fixed in the next version.

I see this gap on ES 12-15 and CL 01-16 (only two I am looking at for the moment).

Hello NJA_MC,

Thanks for your post.

Yes, there was an issue with HDS5. We have redirected to HDS9, please restart your Ninjatrader 8 to automatically be redirected to HDS9 for historical data.

Surely NT8 should be able to detect loss of connectivity (or other significant issues) with a data server and automatically redirect to another server without traders having to wait until some anomaly is observed, then have to shutdown all their strategies, including closing all open trades, then shutdown and restart NT8? This would seem fundamental to the paradigm of automated trading that NT espouses.

Thanks.

Hello jeronymite,

Thanks for your post.

I will submit a feature request to provide for auto-detection of Historical data server loss and auto redirection to back-up server along with auto reconnection on user end.

I will update this thread when I have further info.
