I have a workspace that I like. My understanding is that when Ninja Trader closes it saves the workspace settings so that the next time the app is opened the workspace is opened as I left it.
The workspace I have is 5 different market analyzers with different timeframes, 5 charts with same timeframes as the market analyzers and all of the windows (10 total) with the same link color.
When NT is restarted, it starts to load data and then just hangs with a dialog box that says "loading data..." and never goes farther. I have to kill the app, restart it and then quickly kill windows before it gets into the hang situation. Then, load the windows manually which is time consuming. Two questions/issues:
1) Is this a bug or do I need to load the windows manually each app instance?
2) When the app is started, is there a way for it to make the data connection automatically before the windows/charts start to load ?
3) This maybe should go under a different topic but it's related to saving of a workspace and restarting it. Some of the indicators I'm developing need X # of bars before it can calculate the indicator. When I create the charts by hand and specify the # of days as appropriate things work fine when switching from stock to stock. But, when the workspace loads and I switch to different stocks some indicators can't be calculated because not enough data exists (in other words it seems like the setting used when the chart was created initially is not saved and reused when the application is restarted)
Also, in terms of the type of machine I'm using; I'm running on a new machine with Windows XP Professional (all service packs, security patches installed), 2GB RAM and a 2.66Ghz Duo Core Intel processor with Western Digital Raptor (10K RPM) hard drives. It's a FAST machine although I will likely upgrade it to 4GB RAM as the stuff I'm trying to do with Ninja Trader takes a fair amount of memory.
