Hi,

The daily historical SC Forex charts have not been updating properly since Sun/Mon open (applies to all FX pairs)

While the last price updates in real-time, at the end of the day a new bar does not form (so now my charts go from Friday straight to Weds, 10 to 15 Nov)

Weds bars appear correct when compared with a number of other feeds (including the FXCM feed, which I believe it is taken from)

I have attached an example of a GBP/USD chart displaying the issue I have described.

I have tried disconnecting/reconnecting and reloading/recalculating the data etc but nothing seems to work?


Thanks

This is not a data corruption issue. This is simply a missing data issue.

For you guide, I have attached another GBPUSD chart for the next day which has just started.

Weds bar (15th) has disappeared, with Thurs bar (16th) now showing in its place.

This is very unusual. We have never seen anything like this before.

Follow the instructions here to delete the GBPUSD daily data file:
Chart Data and Chart Data Files: Deleting a Chart Data File

After that, open a new chart for it. You should be seeing the bars for the current week. There simply should not be a problem with this whatsoever.
