Thanks for the information - it helps to know why there would be a delay.
I just wanted to let people know that you can use TS Support's Uniserver to patch holes in the current day. I just brought up an RT chart that was only updated to last Friday. As the new ticks started to come in from to the Global Server, I had a hole of several days, including the early hours of today. I went to download the missing data from eSignal with UniServer, and a minute or two later, the hole was filled in, including today's.
No more waiting for the close to fill in today's holes! That's a tremendous improvement over HistoryBank. I think Uniserver deserves your attention if you are on TS2000i with eSignal.
