Re[2]: TS2000i daily charts dates are offset one day and Monday's are missing

John,

I'm pretty sure DTN IQFeed sends time stamps out based on GMT.  Check
your Computer clock, then the GMT offset in Tradestation.  Then maybe
recheck all your other settings like you mentioned earlier.  Exchange
settings etc.  What exchange and symbol are you looking at?

I don't know if Hyperserver lite has any time type settings.  I don't
know why it would.  All the data is sent verses Greenwich time.  I'm
in the Central Time Zone so my Global server shows GMT time at 14:26
and my computer shows 9:26 or five hours behind GMT so I set my offset
to -300 until daylight savings goes off then it is -360.

Thats all I know,

Jimmy


Hi Jimmy,

Yes, Monday's data is now under Tuesday. Thursday's data is under Friday. Friday's data is probably under Monday...but
Monday's bar has disappeared, so that means that Friday's data also disappeared. Comprende paisano?

My data source is DTN IQFeed.  OS is Win2000. I've been double checking all this with Quotetracker and IQFeed.  I was
hoping there was a setting in TS2000i that I'd missed, that could explain  this...although it's hard to imagine one.

Dealing with Hyperserver tech support is more difficult...they don't do emails, they do chats, or MSM Messenger which I
don't use. One chat connection is always dead, and the other one involves downloading a one time only file, installing
it which brings up live chat Tech support.  Which was good when I reached them.  But to do it again you have to download
the same file again, install it again, wait again, talk again...etc...And they are the ones who tell me my computer is
too slow (PIII 1000mHz) thus the high cpu usage (IQConnect.exe= 98% usage).  Which I have to take with a grain of salt
since I didn't have that problem most of the year+ I used Hyperserver Lite, and don't have that problem now using
Quotetracker and the same IQFeed.  And another listee tells me he recently had the same cpu high usage problem using a
P4 2.6 mHz computer.

If no one's had this problem before, then I'll try Hypertrader support again...wait for the sun to come up in
Italy...download, install, wait, chat, write, chat, write...

John
