[amibroker] Urgent Help Needed re QuoteTracker

Hi,
I had GREAT luck with QT for several years or so, then the data simply would NOT pass from QT to AB. After working TJ and Marcin for everything I could get, all to NO avail. TJ got really peeved at my constant demands on their time, and terminated our communications without resolution. (Rightly so - as it turns out.)

After my messing around for say 2 months, I decided to check on the number of installations of AB and AQ, that I had installed.
It turned out that since 2002-3 or so, along with a change of a computer or two, I found multiple installations of AB on several HD's which I mirrored from a previous computer. I believe I found 4 installations of both AB and AQ. I then cleanup up those older mirrored drives, and remove all traces of both AB and AQ --

Well, what do you know.... the confusion cleared up, and now I no longer have that problem. I informed TJ and Marcin of this solution to the QT data problem -- and knowing how long YOU have had your AB and AQ installations, I suggest you check to make sure that you have the minimum number of installations you REALLY need. I would suggest 1 as being ideal, but you probably can keep at least 2 active -- from my experience.  Certainly not 4 or more different installations as I had.

I developed this Theory of Multiple Installations for correction of all sorts of problems between AB and QT.  -- Try it, maybe it will be true again.

Good Luck,

Hal

I would suggest you increase number of bars in database settings to see if it fixes your problem. You can set it as high as needed (above 500000 you need modify registry) if you have enough memory and/or disk space.

Tomasz:  thanks.  I checked everything in the troubleshooting quide, and every test says that QT is gathering data properly. The link showed all the tickers and quotes.  The separate QT plot screen shows 10min bars (my setting) from 1 minute data.  And I have the paid version so do not worry about ad click rates.  Everything has performed flawlessly since Sep, 2006 up until this Tuesday.
 
Can you suggest some additional tests I could perform to see if AB is not getting the quote data from QT.
 
Thanks for additional assistence.

PS: the only firewall I run is the hardware connection on a hardwired LinkSys router.  Nothing changed there, no new components on the system.  I have been trying various new downloaded software, but can not pinpoint any problems.  Everything has worked fine.  No other problems on any other software.  No crashes nor unusual behavior on any other software.
 
Hmmm, the database settings show number of bars = 100000 and 1 minute base time interval.  Have I maxed out the storage capacity according to what I have set?  What will happen if I change to 5 minute base time interval?

(Click on the links provided to check if http server is running on QT), also check your firewall if you run any.

<big smile>  I paid the fee to eliminate the ads.  Also talked with the author of QT. All seems right with QT.  It is getting data, displaying data, seemingly caching data.   It seems that the problem is in the AB interface, but I am not sure.  Now have lost two days of data.  Drat!
 
Any help out there?

Hello:  I have been collecting 1 min bars with QT since last Sep.  All of a sudden (this Tuesday aftere the US holiday, it did not receive or record any data.  QT is working properly and is graphing and displaying data.  The RT plug in is showing "OK".  But nothing is being recorded in Amibroker.  I do not know what else to do to try and make it record.
 
Any help out there?  I could use info today to not lose two days in a row.
