Refresh not flushing memory cache

[NinjaTrader_Lance]

Hello,

I apologize, I performed a couple tests yesterday that did include refreshing. No errors arose.

Here is the screen cap of me testing it again. (I refreshed along with changed settings)

It doesn't look like you ever hit F5 to force a refresh. That is when the problem occurs (it works fine until then). Put the chart up with the indicator and hit F5 a couple of times. On my end that is when it begins double and triple +++ printing.

Hello,

I've tested on my end and it appears to function properly.

Please send a note to support [at] ninjatrader [dot]com and reference this forum post: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ad.php?t=54215

In your email please provide us with the following:

• A phone number where you can be reached
• A time window where I can call you (please include a time zone)

I look forward to assisting you further.

Here is the problem indicator and the rather generic BarNumber indicator. This has the External Form commented out. I was testing on a 7 Brick Renko CL 01-13 chart.

[NinjaTrader_Lance]

Hello,

Yes, please provide me with the indicator's source code so that I may test further on my end.
Located in: (My)Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Indicator

I look forward to assisting you further.

Here's what I've done

1. Close NT (64 bit 7.0.1000.11 (Live))
2. Delete _Workspaces.xml
3. Start NT
4 Open new untitled_2 workspace
5. Close untitled_1 workspace
a) Check Strategies Tab. Nothing there.
6. Create new chart with brick 7 Renko
Indicators:
a) The problem one
b) A simple one that just shows Bars.BarsSinceSession on panel 2
7. Connect Market Replay
a) Set start to 8:00:00 am today
8. Open Output Window
9. Start Market Replay
10. Watch for a spell and hit F5 on Bar 49
11. Curse a bit when double prints begin.
12. Hit F5 again on bar 50
13 Curse some more when triple prints begin
14. Apologize to wife for language.
15. F5 on bar 52
16. Watch rather befuddled as quad prints begin.

Do you want the indicators?
I have programmed an external form into the indicator, but it behaves the same whether it is there or commented out.

[NinjaTrader_Lance]

Hello,

I do not see any apparent issues with your provided trace/log file.

When you click the strategies tab of the control center, is it blank? Can you please verify you started NinjaTrader with a blank workspace?

I look forward to assisting you further.

Latest Release, but still funky

Here is a clip of the Output Window and my latest Log and Trace files.
The indicator is on one chart only with only a single workspace open.

EDIT: One thing I see that is odd is that, after hitting F5, the midpoint and Flag 1 lines are printed only a single time. It is not until Flag 2 or a new bar that I begin getting multiples. I hit F5 a third time and am now getting four prints.

EDIT2: The reason for the EDIT: oddity is that I was hitting F5 on the bar after Flag 1 had triggered. Therefore it printed once for the new refreshed code but not for the remnants because they already had flag1 set to true on the pre-F5 run through. When flag2 executed, they all reported it.

EDIT3: Hit F5 before Flag 1 was triggered. Here is the current Output Window. The bolded text is where I started or refreshed the chart.

[NinjaTrader_Matthew]

If you're on a 64-bit machine, there should be a 64-bit version of NinjaTrader automatically installed.

If you cannot locate this, it's possible that the 64-bit version was running while you upgraded at one point. You can easily repair your installation following the steps below:

Please note that following the steps below will not impact your charts, workspaces, custom indicators or any other NinjaTrader settings.

1. Close all running applications.

2. Then from the Start menu select --> Control Panel --> Add and Remove Programs.

3. From Add and Remove Programs select NinjaTrader 7 and click Remove.

4. Then you will need to clear your internet browser cache and history. You will clear this from within your internet browser (with IE, Tools-->Options, delete cookies and files, clear history).

5. Reboot your machine.

6. Once these steps are completed, download NT7 from the link below:


* http://www.ninjatrader.com/download-registration



Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Not on any other chart. I am positive of that.

What happened to bin64. Is there no longer a 64 bit version of NT?

[koganam]

Something funky is going on (.1000.9) with refreshing chart. I am trying to debug an indicator, but every time I edit the indicator, and then refresh the chart, all my debug statements from previous versions of the indicator are printed to the output window as well as the debug statements from the just refreshed version. It seems as though the refresh does not flush the old indicators, the old versions, from memory.

I have looked through the code and cannot find any unusual statements that may be causing this problem. Any ideas?

Snap

Are you sure that you do not have the indicator running on more than one chart, especially one in another open workspace?

[NinjaTrader_Lance]

Hello,

Could you please upgrade to the latest version of NinjaTrader here: http://www.ninjatrader.com/download-registration.php
You can find our license key by going to the NinjaTrader Control Center -> Help -> License Key...

After that as a test, please take the following steps to force NinjaTrader to start without your saved workspace. You will have the option to reopen these after our tests.


* Shut down NinjaTrader
* Navigate to (My) Documents\NinjaTrader 7\workspaces
* Delete the file named "_Workspaces.XML".
* After deleting this file, restart NinjaTrader which should startup without any workspaces.
* Once NinjaTrader has started on just the control center, please open a new chart and test for issue.
* *Please note this will not delete your workspace however the new blank workspace will be named Untitled1. If you have a workspace already named Untitled1 however you will not want to save the workspace when exiting NinjaTrader, otherwise it will overwrite it.


If there are no issues on this new workspace, please try opening the previous workspace by going to File--> Workspaces--> Open workspace.

If this reintroduces issues, I would suggest rebuilding your workspace. Please keep track of what indicators you add back in so that we can narrow down what indicator is causing the issue if the issue returns. I also suggest making a backup of your workspace so we can restore a backup if the issue returns.
Below I have provided a link to the Backup and Restore section of our help guide.

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

If I close the chart and open a new one, all is well. It is just on refresh.

Typically I hit F5 to refresh. Despite clearing the output window, the old data continues to print.

Hello,

Could you pleas clarify your method for refreshing the charts? Are you right clicking -> Reload NinjaScript?

Additionally do you still get old data when you clear out your output window. Right click -> Clear

If this does not fix the issue, please manually attach your most current log and trace files to your response, so I may investigate this matter further.
You will find the log file on your PC in the (My) Documents > NinjaTrader 7 > Log folder.

• The log file will be named "log.YYYYMMDD.txt"

You will find the trace file on your PC in the (My) Documents > NinjaTrader 7 > Trace folder.

• The trace file will be named "trace.YYYYMMDD.txt"

I look forward to assisting you further.
