Hello,
I am on 6.5 beta and finding now that Ninja is really slow to load. Opening new charts takes one cup of coffee if not two. and if I close a chart the whole program closes.
Any suggestions?

Thank you.
I will proceed with the checklist.
When NT crashes there is no error message...it just closes the whole program.
I am using third party indicators and I am in recording mode so this may be stretching things.
Thanks
Peter

Peter and Dierk
Im running Ninja 6.0.1000.9 and experiencing a slow loading problem as well. I m running the program with E Signal data feed and using the KwikPop system which necessitates both tick and volume charts. I notice when starting (before connection) the program takes a while. Additionally when connecting it takes a while to load the charts. Im not experiencing the same crah problems Peter reported (different version maybe ?)
Im currently running ES 90 tick, 215 tick, 7500 volume, 5 miniute and 1 minute charts. Additionally Im running a 5 minute chart of the DOW and the COMPX. Platform is an Intel 975XX motherboard with the core duo quad processor, 2 GB RAM, and twin PCIe NVidia GEForce 8500s driving 4 monitors. OS is XP Pro, current.
I suspect part of the problem here on connect may be waiting for the info from E Signal. I ran through the performance list posted earlier in this thread. Additionally when starting and again when loading data I have run taskmanager and only see a total of 25 % total CPU loading distributed across the 4 cores. Any other suggestion on how to speed things up would be appreciated.
