merged IB and Kinetick data

[ssylwester]

Hi,
On my backup machine, i log in to IntBrokers, and capture data for a handful of futures. Sometimes i take it offline. Once a week, i restore from the Database of chart data from my main production machine (kinetick data). What happens with teh merged tick data?
I expect that in times that i had the machine offline, the Kinetick tick data will be filled in.
But what about times that IB was collecting data, .. since IB "tick" data is semi-batched. Does the new kinetick data overwrite the IB tick data?

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

This will depend on the days you are loading and the data you currently have in your database. I have provided a link below to our Help Guide that goes over in detail of when NinjaTrader reloads historical data from the server which would then overwrite your existing data. Also if at anytime you reload historical data this will also overwrite any existing data with new data from the server.

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