any help?

If you did not, you may need to try clicking on the grid that is displayed on the right side with the scroll bar.

Just moving your mouse over that grid area would not be enough to 'focus' the grid so it is scrollable - but left mouse clicking and then scrolling should work.

I'm not sure, would need to know exactly what you did while importing, is this related to this post? http://ninjatrader.com/support/forum...776#post447776 If so, can we move the discussion to just one thread.

Based on the size of the file, it is likely that the thread using the Historical Data windows was busy and locked up during the import process. When you restarted, it only showed data up to the point it would have locked up. Do you use the 32-bit or 64-bit version? You can check this by going to Help-> About.

help about shows nothing about 32 64

[NinjaTrader_Matthew]

If it shows nothing, then it would be 32-bit... the 64-bit would show (64-bit).


There are restrictions on the size of files you can process on the 32-bit version.

Can you test again by making sure to start the 64-bit version of NinjaTrader 8. This should be reflected on the icon used to start.

I see. Thanks for clarifying.

Yes, that could be a problem with the amount of data you're trying to load. If it's 4GB file, that needs to be loaded into memory and 32-bit can only handle 1.2GB~ of memory for an application at most.

As advised earlier, you may be able to work through this by requesting data from dukascopy in smaller chunks. But with that said, we will run the import process on 32-bit and 64-bit and see if there is something we can do to improve this.

by the way
i downloaded a smaller file for just the first 2 months
it was 12 mg
but showed same problem
so i think it is not about the file size
it works well on nt7 when i dont use sub second granularity
yyyymmddhhmmss
but when i try to use
yyyymmddhhmmssfffffff
it shoes the problem

To clariy the problem it shows, do you mean that it is still not importing all the of the data that is contained in the file?

Or do you mean that the scroll doesn't work?

Or that it gives an error about the date time being smaller as per the other thread...?

Ok thanks. The technician who received your email was unable to receive the attached file, but please try again using the smaller file and you can work from there.
