charts not backfilling

[Radical]

I am having the same problem, but only for 09-09 data.

Hello Radical,

Can you please tell me what data feed provider you connect to in NinjaTrader.

What suggestions did you already try on your end that I provided hanaa?

[Radical]

I use zen-fire for data, historical data is enabled. I have tried every suggestion you gave in this thread, except for re-installing ninja.

[NinjaTrader_Jason]

Please re-connect to Zen-Fire and try once more. We had an issue with historical data for 09-09 instruments using Zen-Fire. However, the issue has been resolved. I tested it on my end and I was able to retrieve historical data again.

Let me know if this does not work on your end.

I am now able to get backfill data for the Sep 09 contracts, thank you for resolving that in a timely manner. However, I still cannot merge data from 06-09 to 09-09, as per this thread: http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...ad.php?t=15078

[NinjaTrader_Jason]

Do you have both the ES 06-09 and 09-09 available in the Instrument Manager?

I suggest to create charts for both instruments.

Subsequently perform the merge and check if it is successfull.

[Radical]

I have done that, this is the error message I get, see attached image. Despite what the message says, I am able to view both tick and minute charts of the Sep 09 contracts. BTW, this is for YM in my case, not ES.

[NinjaTrader_Jason]

Hello Radical,

Try the following. Restart NinjaTrader and create two charts; YM 06-09 and YM 09-09.
Leave the charts opened and perform the Merge once more.

If the issue persists, please tell me what merge settings you used.

[Radical]

Should I be connected to a data feed or disconnected when I do this?

[Radical]

Well I tried doing it both connected and disconnected, neither worked. I have attached a screenshot of the settings I'm using.

Same problem here. Restarted NT, Zen, both charts open...

ES fails to merge

I have followed the merge process and worked successfully on all the three instruments including ES (according to NT). However, when I open ES chart for 09-09, only the user text/annotations show up from the previous contract but no data. This problem is only with ES as the other instruments merge and display the data successfully. BTW, I have had problems with the ES contract not merging in the past contrary to the 'merge successfully completed' at the end of the NT merge process.

[NinjaTrader_Jason]

Please use a different date than today for the 'To date' and check again.

[Radical]

That seems to have worked for the most part--when I open a 09-09 60 min chart now, it shows the merged data, however, when I open any kind of CVB chart, the merged data does not show. Thanks for your help thus far.

[Maletor]

Yup, it said tick data successfully merged but then when I checked it was still only the U9 contract. I even hit reload historical data...
