Slow splash screen - verifying stored executions

[Brian1]

I upgraded to v6.5.1000.5 yesterday. Today when I start NinjaTrader and the Splash Screen comes up, it takes a great deal longer. I notice in the Splash Screen, that it is running a process counting up some "stored executions", to about 2300. (It says "Verifying stored executions - x of 2300". The "x" here is an incrementing number, and I am rounding the number "2300".) It takes sometimes nearly 1 second to count 5 increments, while other times it moves more quickly. The entire process seemed to take about 3-4 minutes.

This behavior seems new. Is it necessary? Will it happen every launch of NT? What are these "stored executions"? Do they have anything to do with trade executions; and if so, is this encouraging me to have fewer of them (i.e. should I trade less??)?

This is expected behavior and could happen when NT needs to verify the stored executions.

Thanks for the quick response Dierk.

- What are these "stored executions"?

- Are they trade executions?

- Are they SQL stored procedure executions?

- Is there a way for me to have fewer? If so, how?


Thanks again,

These are executions resulting from your trades. There would be fewer if you traded less.

Okay. Thanks Dierk.
