Re[2]: Setting up Global Server to collect stock data for pre and afterhours markets?

[Jimmy Snowden <jhsnowden@xxxxxxx>]

What I've seen is even though you can't see the data it in fact might
be collecting.  When you change the check mark in the reset column
then you will see the data and see the chart.  Now I'm talking eminis
because I don't remember what happens on stocks if I ever even messed
with it.  The data wasn't significant so I didn't chart it, but I
think it works the same as the futures.  It does take a little while
for the chart to update but it should.  I never added a second session
to the CME so that doesn't seem to be very important as I've been
charting the second session a long time now.  I would check with DTN
to confirm they are sending the data.  I'm sure they are especially is
the quotemonitor blinks.  Blinks are trades.  If you see it there then
it is coming in.  You said something about the price not changing.  I
would double check that after a while to be sure it does change.  Also
the bid ask should change.

Best regards,
