That's a thought but luckily for me I don't absolutely need "live" =2 data in ts2ki currently because I use Metastock to daytrade ES #F=2, however I do have a couple of systems in ts2ki that are set up with =2, but they are in the let's see how they do live phase. I can download that data after the close each day, but it would make life oh so nice again if they could just figure out how to fix it.

ask me privately I really can't remember the name of it.  Don't want

I spoke with Eric twice today and unfortunately the bottom line seems to be that they are completely stumped. He genuinely seems to be trying to resolve this issue but after getting nowhere in house and speaking with several other sources, including Omega, I get the impression that while they will still try to figure it out (he mentioned the other ts2ki guy is coming back from vacation tomorrow), he is hoping that it will just start working again all by itself. Even if it does, how much trust are you going to have that it won't quit on you in the middle of a trade, considering they never found the cause. Anyway, his workaround for now (which I am sure we all already thought of) is to use the individual contracts or ES #F and set them to RTH if you can. I asked if they could create a new symbol that does not include the =2 suffix that would also collect ES #F. They could set it up to collect RTH data only, or I suppose we could set it to RTH in GS. Since it seems to be the =2 that is screwing things up if we could get away from it maybe just maybe we could get data. He didn't seem to keen on that idea though. Meanwhile, he starts a one week vacation tomorrow. :)

btw, am I the only one experiencing GS crashes when downloading =2 tick data?

Well, here's the deal.
If you want to help the "financial crisis"-- I have a bunch of fund money
that I am waiting to put in the market
I CANNOT do so, unless, and UNTIL, I get a "BUYSIGNAL"--
But I can't tell if we are getting a buysignal, because I don't have DATA!!!
Your firm is effectively BANNING BUYING-- KIND OF LIKE THE FED BANNING
SHORTING.
Removing from the market, forces that step in and BUY.
SO if any of you have a 401 K that's getting WHACKED right now, it would be
in YOUR BEST INTEREST
to provide us data.
Thank you,
Marc

Hi Eric, it's Marc Miller here, spoke to you a few times about TS2ki
issue with day session only.
Lo and behold, Yesterday (monday, 10/20) IT WORKED!!
I was so elated!!

NOT NOW -- THEY ARE NOT WORKING, what happened??????

Just overnight- something happened to where they aren't coming in.
You see, my indicators DO NOT WORK unless I have real time data- I'm
screwed, this is really frustrating!

Please see what's up.
Thanks,
Marc MIller
