Finally deduced this morning that the problem is using Indicators in MA ...seems to cause a delay or other problem which results in a disconnect from historical data which freezes all data downloading and all charts and NT
using 7.0.1000.2
to reproduce:
1. use default list in MA per first pic
2. connect PFG demo feed
3. workspace of 13 charts and 1 MA loads/works fine
4. add 2 indicator columns to MA as in second pic.....close NT saving workspace (and therefore new MA with indicator columns)...reopen and connect to PFG...feed hangs up...need Task Manager to close NT
the problem is caused by the difference of having the indicators in the MA on connection as NT can not download data and do indicator calcs in MA at same time apparently
workaround:
1. save an MA template as default which has no indicators...use this when you save workspace to close NT or apply before connection
2. after connection download, change the MA template to one you have saved which includes indicators...MA will reload data and calculate values with no problem
