Hi Laredo,

These options are not related to the size of your trace file. You can enable or disable these options to your liking.
More information regarding these options can be found in the link below.

You ONLY should have checked Order, Connection and "To file only".

Some boxes are checked in the diagnostics tab window ( why some are checked and not others I don't know)

The following ARE checked:

• Bars
• Connect
• DataBase
• Gui
• Indicator
• MarketData
• Order
• Server

The following are NOT checked:

• Alerts
• InstrumentLookup
• MarketDepth
• Native
• News
• Strategy
• Strict
• Test
• Timer

over the last few weeks my trace files have become enormous- often 1 Gigabyte or more.Is this normal? It makes it almost impossible to open to peek in if there is a problem...
I am running 5- 5 minute charts,a Half hour chart and 3 from a separate data feed for market internals.
Thanks-
(sorry- this is probably in the wrong forum...)

Hello Taters,

Do you by any chance have the diagnostics tab enabled within your Control Center?
