Global Chart Objects

[yellowTrader]

Thanks Alfred.
So what do you do with all those global objects when a workspace is corrupted?
I mean are they lost forever?

Hello yellowTrader,

Global drawing objects are included in backups provided that workspaces are included in the backup.

The system restore may be worth trying, but I am not sure whether this would bring the objects back.

System restore does bring back all global objects OK for me (I use many global objects & backup every day)...have found just ocassionally when perhaps a workspace becomes corrupted that objects will then not restore....

Hello Kyle,
I am sure they were not saved over since I created and saved them on Monday and then reopened the same wokspace on Tuesday and made no changes to the drawing objects but today I see some of them are visible but the rest have disappeared.
And no I don't backup everyday but even if I did I don't believe global objects are backed up. Am I not correct ?
I wonder if it's possible to do a sytem restore back to yesterday. Would that bring the global objects back?
Thank you

Hello yellowTrader,

If the drawing objects were created this recently, it could be that the workspace has become corrupted or was saved over. Do you have a backup which contains these settings from which to restore?

Hello Kyle,
I was working with my ES chart yesterday and I view and work with same set of charts everyday. The drawing objects that I noticed disappear were created 2 days ago. Any explanations?
Thank you.

Hello yellowTrader,

Thanks for writing in.

Global Drawing Objects will be hidden if those objects are not viewed for 20 consecutive days.

To restore those objects, you'll need to shut down NinjaTrader and roll your PC's clock back to a date where those drawing objects would have been displayed. At that point, you would need to close NT, reset the PC clock to 10 days ahead of the date you last set, and then re-open NinjaTrader to display the objects repeating this procedure until you reach the current day.

Hello,
I just noticed that some of the chart objects for ES chart have disappeared while some of the rest are still visible. These were lines , circles , etc... that I have drawn on my charts and are stored in the "GlobalChartObject" folder .
I have spent a lot of time creating them and they each represent an important area on my chart , can you tell me what caused them to disappear ? and how I can get them back?
Thank you
