Hello TJ,

How was the vacation? Did you go anywhere of interest in your part of the world?

Yes local is enabled. On one computer it did the same thing today, only saved once and then the price quotes later on just vanish!! Maybe it’s a sign I shouldn’t be looking at those stocksJ

Hello,

File->Database Settings,

Local data storage must be set to ENABLED.

By the way you are using 5.09 - thats a BETA version

Use 5.10 or 5.20.

Best regards,

I've noticed something that sounds similar. I've found that if I don't disconnect from the RT feed before I run any AA formula and then save the database and exit AB then re-run AB so that the RT feed connects automagically that I'll get a chart that starts shrinking and continues to shrink to almost no quotes. But, if I do the above steps then everything is fine.

Hello.

Been fighting this all week, after the corrupt data files due to an old battery(s) in the UPS, I have a handful of stocks I track in RT 5.09 AMI with IB. On Friday morning 3 stocks started out with around 3 days of data (all others 8 days which in norm), at the end of the day (the 3) had a history of one day!! This is on two computers the same stocks. I do not have anything in the formula that saves or writes anywhere.

What I do during the day is hit save every now and then or run the Automatic Analysis every 60 minutes or both. In help files under troubleshooting it talks about what to do under crash or hangup, but not “disappearing”. Have tried re-do of installation of 5.09 and a fresh data base with all symbols re-entered. The two trading computers do not access the net but only through IB.

So any thought any one?

Thanks to Barry and Brian_Z on their reply a week ago at the start of this problem.
