This last time NT7 told me the historical data in the database for the symbol I was running on is corrupted.
I heavily suspect that isn't corrupted, rather the error derives from memory and other resource problems during the big optimisation.
The data that I am testing on has not been updated for 3 months, so it hasn't been written to and I doubt this new machine has developed a hard drive problem already. That's why I think it's not actually database corruption.
I have looked at the chart for the instrument and all the data looks ok.
It would take me a long time to reload the data - it's forex tick data from 1997 to the present, one big zip from the provider plus multiple little update files.
How else can I check whether this 'historical data corruption' is a false alarm?
Thanks
