Download missing historical data on reconnection

[nailz420]

Hi support,

If I put my computer to sleep with NT connected to a provider (Rithmic) and then wake it up the next day, the connection is restored but the NT does not download the missing historical data even if I choose to reload market data from the charts context menu. What I have to do is manually disconnect and reconnect then the data syncs up automatically. Why is that?

Thanks,
Tim

Hello Tim,

Thank you for your post.

NinjaTrader is not designed to work in hibernate or sleep mode on your PC. If you use sleep or hibernate you will need to restart NinjaTrader or reconnect as you have in this case.

This would be the same case if the internet connection went down for some time and then came back up. Wouldn't it make sense for NT to sync up the data then if I have a live strategy running?

Hello Tim,

Thank you for your response.

A connection loss would be handled completely different from a process stalling item like hibernate or sleep. NinjaTrader is not designed for hibernate or sleep.

If I just unplug my router for a few mins and plug it back in NT does not download the missing market data even if select reload all historical data from the chart context menu. It does if I disconnect/reconnect.
