Re: Corrupt data

Very nice work!

I've changed my pricescale now too, but was disappointed to see that the INDU data wasn't corrected in my data base.

Could someone who has already been wise enough to adjust their pricescale also be kind enough to send me intraday TS4 INDU BMI data for March 15th, and 16th?

Hm, I just went to the Omega refresh site... Found a message that says:

"Due to data feed issues there will be a three hour gap in the tick data for the INDU symbol for today", dated March 16th.

TIA :-)
