Hello,
Do you have Status bar visible (View->Toolbars->Status
bar)?
Can you see Green OK or Red "ERR" rectangle in the STATUS
BAR ?
Connection status display
The data plug-in connection status is displayed in the plugin
status display area located in the lower right part of the AmiBroker main window
as shown in the picture below. When connection status changes AmiBroker plays a
beep sound and pops up bubble tool tip to inform about status change.

width=479>
The bubble tip provides more detailed information text and
disappears automatically after 2 seconds.
If you want to re-display it just hover your mouse over plugin
status display area.
To enable quick examination of connection status AmiBroker
displays color coded information:
OK (green light) means that connection is OK and
indicates correct operation of the plugin
WAIT (yellow light) means that connection is being set-up
right now or the plugin is connected only partially (to few of many servers).
Usually this state is transient and within few seconds the status comes back
to "OK".
ERR (red light) means that connection is broken. It may
mean invalid user name/password for your subscription, or the fact that some
3rd party component / program required is not running (for example if
QuoteTracker is not running and you are using QuoteTracker plugin). This state
usually requires some user intervention such as checking/fixing user/password
in File->Database Settings->Configure or running required component.
When you fix the reason the plugin will automatically attempt to reconnect
(and if reconnect is successfull then "OK" will be displayed)
SHUT (purple light) means that some serious problem
occurred and the plugin will not attempt to reconnect automatically. In most
cases you have to first fix the problem that caused this state and then
reconnect manually using plugin context menu described below. Alternativelly
you can just restart AmiBroker.
Using plugin context menu
Real time plugins provide some additional controls via plugin
context menu. This context menu is available when you click with RIGHT mouse
button over plugin status display area. If you do, the menu like this will be
displayed:
<IMG height=118 alt="" src="gif00484.gif"
width=198>
Please note that various plugins offer various options in this menu, however
most plugins provide at least 3 basic and useful options:
Reconnect - this option allows you to reconnect manually.
Most RT plugins attempt to reconnect automatically, but sometimes manual
reconnect is necessary.
Shutdown (Disconnect) - this allows to shutdown RT
plugin. This is useful when you want to stop streaming of quotes.
Force backfill - this option causes that plugin
re-downloads entire (intraday) history from the server. Usually the plugin
automatically handles all backfills so you don't need to trigger backfills by
hand. If the plugin detects that you have some missing quotes from last
available bar till current date/time it triggers backfills and it is all
automatic. But... in at least two cases this option is useful:
backfilling more bars after settings change (when you enlarge 'number of
bars to load' in File->Database Settings dialog you have to force
backfill for symbols that were backfilled previously with smaller number of
bars)
cleaning up bad ticks (when you see a bad tick you may try forcing
backfill in hope that data vendor has cleaned up its database and you will
get fixed data - works well for eSignal that really appears to fix bad ticks
after they happen)
