Merge historical data fails

[plutus]

When I attempt to merge historical data for ES 03-09 int ES 06-09 I receive the error shown in the image NTMerge1.jpg.

NTMerge2.jpg shows the settings I have for the merge.

Note that I have valid data for both contracts. I am able to chart ES 03-09 several months back, and ES 06-09 has several day's worth of data.

Please advise.

Hi plutus, welcome to the NinjaTrader support forums! Please check this post and select a date before the actual rollover day in the 'To' field, then try the merge process again - http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...ad.php?t=12490

Thank you for the quick response.

I read the thread you referenced and it's ridiculously complicated.

Your suggestion, however, worked like a charm.

I've seen numerous complaints about this issue. Might I suggest the solution be included in the docs.

We will have enhanced behind the scenes operation for merging of data for NT7. In other words, the merge process will be taken care of for you.

Hi Ray,
That's what i call great news...
is that means we would control the day of the rollover also?
and...maybe have the option of backadjustment or not?

this is a long wait feature for many people...
many thanks
