Hi,

I have setup MA with a large number of symbols to run a real time indicator over, so I dont need or want any history to be loaded. However, despite setting the Lookback Bars within properties to 1, and within Columns the the DataSeries to Minute with a value of 1, MA still loads several days of data for most symbols which of course takes an age.

In theory, with no requests for History, MA should no have to laod any data and so should be quite quick to load or refresh.

Is it possible to not load any history at all and if so where/how is that setup?

If this is not currently possible, could it please be added to 'the list' so as to be possible in the future?

Thanks

Next NT6.5 beta will support BarsBack=0 which will prevent historical data from being loaded.
