lost data

I don't know why I lost 1 week historical data, it was good 1 hours ago, but the entire last week data disappeared.

What data provider were you connected to?

Did this happen with more than one instrument?

Was the data from a source other than the one you were connected to when this took place?

[supermht]

IB data
no all instrument, only CL lost last week's data

I only use IB for data feed

I remember before"Lost data" happened, I tried to download November historical data for ES, I am wondering if this action generated the problem

Hello supermht

What interval chart was the CL instrument set to?

What happens when you right-click and select "Reload All Historical Data"?

[supermht]

the Reload historical data is in gray color, I am not able to right click. I use 4 tick Renko chart

[supermht]

i remember I tried to download ES data(Nov 23 - Nov 30) from hostorical manager, but I didn't do anyting on CL.

[supermht]

(Nov 23-Nov30) this is exactly period I lost CL data,

[NinjaTrader_Chip]

OK – that is because Interactive Brokers does not provide historical tick data.

Please see the following table which lists all NinjaTrader-supported providers & the data they offer:

[supermht]

nono, I had that data a hour ago, I have my computer open 24 hours to record all data, including CL, and when I check historical data folder, Nov 23-Nov30 data is there , but not displayed on chart, leaving a big gap there

[supermht]

I am talking about CL, not ES, I only lost CL data.
