Secondary Series Stop Working

[BraisedInBlue]

So I have ran into this issue a few times, where in, processing that occurs in my strategy within secondary time series stops executing. Hook up the debugger and the BarsArray[] Entries for the secondary series stay empty, and I am at a loss for why this happens. CurrentBars on the secondary series stay at -1. This script was functioning just fine a few days ago....

I have verified that my data connection is connected, so I am not sure what the problem is here. The primary series loads and processes, but none of the secondary series are firing.

After some digging it appears that my secondary series that are larger time frames then the primary are working fine, its the tick based series that isnt functioning at all.

Something is definitely off, because if I try to run a tick series as the primary, I cant hit a break point on the entry of OnBarUpdate(). Is OnBarUpdate only called for time series bars?

Hello BraisedInBlue,

This is likely an issue with loading data.

What is the line of code you are using for AddDataSeries()?

Are you able to open a chart to the same instrument, bar type, and interval on a chart?

Do any errors appear on the Log tab of the Control Center when enabling the script?

OnBarUpdate() is called for all series added to the script for every bar update (such as a bar close) for all of the historical data loaded and in real-time.

AddDataSeries(BarsPeriodType.Tick, 128);
AddDataSeries(BarsPeriodType.Day, 1);
AddDataSeries(BarsPeriodType.Week, 1);

But I think I figured out the issue. Apparently the data back in 2007-2009 doesn't support tick replay. I am not sure what the resolution of data is from CQG going back that far, but it doesnt seem to support ticks.

Hello BraisedInBlue,

Tick Replay requires historical Tick data.

You have opened the Historical Data window and confirmed that for this instrument the tick data is available between those dates?

I was not able to confirm, are you able to open a tick chart to the same instrument and see the tick data between those dates?

If I attempt to load a chart in roughly the same time range, nothing populates.

Hello BraisedInBlue,

Thanks for replying back.

This would mean the tick data is not present and could not be used in a Tick Replay data series.
