This happened to me several times. I asked Omega about it and they said,
"restart the computer." I wasn't too satisfied with that answer, so at the
time when Omega had more than one person in tech support, I asked someone
else and this person said, "export the symbol and re-import it into the
Global Server." I called again and another one said, "close the problem
chart and re-apply your symbol/indicators/systems to a new chart." That
seems to work, and I have to do that every now and then.
This is why I had to keep buying more computers so eventually the ones that
receive real-time data and generate the signals are hardly touched.
