[amibroker] Re: Two instances...flakiness with templates/layouts

["ges x" <ges8ges@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, this is exactly the problem I am having.  Two different databases, but there seems to be some conflict.

 

For a while, I'll have rebuild a pane with indicators/alerts every day, then it will finally seem to 'stick'.  There are enough of us having this problem that it is real.  I don't mind having to do some kind of work-a-round, just need to figure out what it might be.  I'm really tired of having to rebuild stuff every day.

 

Even stuff, like setting a grid through 'parameters' can be a problem.  I set the grid, save the template and layout and then the next day the grid is gone. Not a big deal, but I would love to be able to get the charts set and leave them.

 

Anyone know how to fix this, or what we might be doing wrong? I'm trying to keep the local stuff isolated with the different databases.

I know this has had some discussion, but I don't recall there ever being a completely satisfactory answer.  When running two instances of AB...one for EOD testing and one for intraday trading, I have had some frustrating problems with templates/layouts.  Both instances are using different databases.

 

I have layouts that are local to the EOD database and others that are local to the intraday database.

 

Periodically, and for no reason that I can make out, indicator panes in the intraday database instance will start up with their AFL missing or carried over from the EOD database layouts.  I can't make out a pattern, but it is very frustrating to have to rebuild things.

 

Yesterday I spent a lot of time creating alerts in one of the panes in my intraday database layout.  Today when I loaded that instance of AB (the EOD instance was already running), not only was the new code missing, but the underlying indicators were also gone.  I didn't save the AFL but assumed it would be retained when I saved the template and layout.

 

Any ideas as to how to avoid this kind of flakiness when running multiple instances?
