hi,

thanks for your reply.

I set up a new data base for the Nasdaq 100. Now I set it up right from the beginning, 120000 bars and "wait for backfill" button set on.

then I ran this little explore:

Buy = C > 0;
Filter = Buy;
AddColumn(C,"C");

and this seemed to have done the trick. But indeed it is strange that using my old database it refuses to do this. I set that one up initially with like 5000 bars or so. Changing it later enables one to do a forced download but is doesn't notice it automatically ....

  Yeah, esignal is not without its faults. I recommend you see which 
  tickers are not loading automatically and suggest deleting ones that 
  seem to be causing the problem. Delete them, then click SAVE. Empty 
  the current cache (option in the database creation section of AB). 
  Manually delete the ticker folder from your Esignal database.

  Open AB again and enter the deleted ticker as a new symbol. Try to 
  load it again. Should be fine.

  Also I have set the "wait for backfill" button on.
