MB Trading does not match IQfeed test?

[NinjaTrader_Brett]

Hello,

I connected to MBT and got this in the output:

OnBarUpdate: 2/24/2011 2:00:00 PM, True
OnBarUpdate: 2/25/2011 2:00:00 PM, True
OnBarUpdate: 2/28/2011 2:00:00 PM, True
OnBarUpdate: 3/1/2011 2:00:00 PM, True

So I'm getting correct on my side. What the difference between the two PC's?

What is the Time zone set to on the computer with issues? This is found by right click on the time in the bottom right hand corner. Also, is the year and date and time correct?

I look forward to assisting you further.

Time is Arizona looks correct. Matches my other 2 computers.

Hello,

Can you try setting up the IQ feed connection on the PC that this doesnt work on. Does it also have issue on this PC on this connection.

Trying to narrow down where issue is.

I do not have that setup on that machine It has been a long time since I setup IQFeed on my dev box do I need to install something? Do you have a link?

Hello,

Sure installation guide for IQ:

Also, you didnt by chance change any settings in the Session manager right?

Results from running connected to MBT and IQFeed.

Seems to only fail on MBT not an issue with IQFeed

I deleted my running strategies on my Prod box, restarted NT, connected to MB Trading again and this time I get

OnBarUpdate: 2/22/2011 2:00:00 PM, True
OnBarUpdate: 2/23/2011 2:00:00 PM, True
OnBarUpdate: 2/24/2011 2:00:00 PM, True
OnBarUpdate: 2/25/2011 2:00:00 PM, True
OnBarUpdate: 2/28/2011 2:00:00 PM, True
OnBarUpdate: 3/1/2011 2:00:00 PM, True

for the Strategy runnin against MBT.

Well tommorrow is the day it is supposed to place trades base on what it found today, so we will see how it does in the morning. I hope the OnBarUpdate gets called, but at this point I am not holding my breath :-)

Tomorrow morning I should expect OnBarUpdate to get called for 3/2/2011 with historical = false. Is this correct?

Thanks,
Erik

Hello,

There we go. Mabye a restart was needed for a change we made to take effect.

I would except the strategy to perform exactly as it has today for tomorrow when you run it.
