Post From: Notice: Recent issues with Sierra Chart US Stock Data Feed

Even after the hardware update, we still had a problem with historical data on one of the data servers. This problem was finally resolved at the beginning of this week. We did determine the actual core problem.

Since our servers are tracking about 24,000 stock symbols, when the market opens a large number of these begin trading. At that point in time the data files for them are opened and there was a large number of file open operations taking place at once. This was a source of the problem.

Now the files are opened ahead of time before the market open.

We do want to acknowledge that we did have problems with the US equities data feed earlier and it did not meet our high standards. Once we were aware of these, we worked very diligently and continuously to resolve the problems and they are now all resolved.

If you encounter any problems with the Sierra Chart US equities data feed part of the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed, please let us know in this thread.
