Market replay timer running but chart not plotting

[babba]

I'm trying to get market replay to work. The replay control box shows the clock running but the chart does not move. I have at least six months of recorded data that I have collected from daily use. I'm only running one chart in the workspace that I have set aside for replay but I have closed workspaces with a lot of charts in them. Would that be the problem?

Is this a LIVE key? Or @SIM key? If @SIM use 24x7 template?


Does the data exist in:

C:\Users\username\Documents\NinjaTrader 7\db\replay\WHATEVER_DATE\WHATEVER_INSTRUMENT.suff ix ?

Just saw this sticky:

Thanks for the reply Sledge, I'm using a live key, I went to check to see if I have any data and I can't find any Username folder in the C:Users folder or anything related to NInjatrader 7 which I am using. I know I should have data because I have been recording it daily. If you have any other thoughts let me know.

I have found something under C: Users/Admin2/My Documents/Ninjatrader 7/db/data but no replay folder.

My bad, I think I was confusing NT8 without checking.

I guess you would have checked "data" and "tick" folders for the data by now?

It's one of the 2...

[babba]

Yes, I check and have data and tick folders with data that goes back over a year. So it's not lack of data.
Maybe it needs to be placed in a replay folder? I don't know.

Have you used Market Replay before? Is this a new issue?

I tried a few times a year ago, but I could only get it to work once and even then it froze after 15 min. I tried reducing the number of charts even down to 1 and reducing the number of indicators even to the point of none and still no luck. I have a Core i7 and 16 gb of ram so I don't think it's because of weak computer.

I could run replay in NT7 on 2006/8 hardware....

Hopefully NT support has some ideas..

You have verified your templates are 24x7?

[babba]

Just checked the session template and it is 24/7 and still no luck. But I do use custom templates in other workspaces that I'm not using for replay so I'm wondering if that's an issue.

[sledge]

Sorry man, I'm out of ideas... hopefully NT can figure this out for you.

You might need to let them log in remotely to solve the issue.

[babba]

Thanks Sledge, appreciate your help. Will see if the NT folks can figure this out and hopefully get it going.
