faulty bars?

[FlexW]

Hi
while backtesting my strategy, I figured out a few strange bars.
I use the Kinetick EndOfDay(free) data feed.
Was the Price on these days really that way? Or is this an mistake from the data feed?
i added a few pictures.

Sp500:

Hello FlexW,

Thank you for your inquiry.

I would suggest deleting your historical data for these instruments and downloading this historical data once more to see if this resolves the odd bars.

To delete your historical data please follow the steps below:

• Within the Control Center go to Tools> Historical Data Manager> Edit
• Select the data you want to delete, right click on it, and select 'Delete'
• Once the data has been deleted close NinjaTrader
• Open the Documents\NinjaTrader7\db\cache folder
• Select all files then right mouse click and select 'Delete'
• Open NinjaTrader and connect to Kinetick End of Day
• Open a daily chart for each of the instruments to re-download the data

I have provided a link below to our Help Guide that goes over how to delete historical data.

Once you have done this, attempt to backtest once more.

Hello FlexW,

Can you verify on a regular chart (File -> New-> Chart) if the bars replicate what is shown in the chart from your backtest results?

[FlexW]

Hello FlexW,

Thank you for the additional information.

It looks like we are able to reproduce these erroneous bars on our end.

We'll be contacting the Kinetick server team about this.

Can you please specify the times that these bars occur on the other instruments as well?

[FlexW]

sure

Day.Months.Year

CF: 9.1.2006 ; 4.12.2015
PL: 20.6.2004 (from 20.6.04 till 6.12.04 there is no data!)
PA: 23.1.2004-27.9.2004 is also no data ; 8.1.2001
and the Sp500 wich i had alredy sended.

this is what i detected with my backtesting, maybe there are some more..

Also there are sometimes the high low open or close lost from the bar:



thank you for your help!

by the way, I always use the SYMBOL ##-## Instrument. Example: FDAX ##-##
