Ninja Trader bad cande wick

    Posted by accudoc on 21st of Sep 2009 at 10:33 am

    I got a bad wick on my SPY and SRS charts and  it is too long and  it is compressing my  charts. Any idea how  to fix this.

    correcting bad tick data

    Posted by duesy on 21st of Sep 2009 at 11:01 am

    Had the same problem with IB on SRS. To correct- right click on the SRS chart. It will open a window and you have an option to edit chart. select it and then click on the bad tick and it should  be removed. I would think that you then need to reload your NT data. I do not have NT running on my system today. Hope this helps.

    Hi Duesy, that was useful

    Hi Duesy, that was useful info. thanks. I edited the IB chart bar data and corrected the high. However NT will still load the bad info. unfortunately, even with reloading the historical data.

    The good news is that it looks like the IB powered Ninja MAs are still calculating the correct values -- probably because they are based off the closing bar values and are not influenced by the bad high tick. I compared Ninja to Ameritrade which wasn't showing the bad tick. Bad news is would have been better off turning off SRS systems so far.

    I also spoke to IB

    I also spoke to IB help about this. I was told that they are "mistrades" from the exchange and the exchange will have to rectify the data. IB does not manually correct this, they just send the data that they receive onwards. However I was told that the exchange should remove the trades. When, is the question. Would also appreciate  a heads up on the SRS swing data (second system). Can someone PM me the MA values with time so that I can check my data? Thanks.

    bad SRS tick

    Posted by bkout3 on 21st of Sep 2009 at 10:38 am

    I'm also having a problem with a bad tick on SRS up around 58 that makes the charts useless. As far as I can tell there's nothing to do till IB fixes the data. I reported the SRS tick and he said he would write up a report but couldn't tell me when it would be fixed. Once IB fixes it you can "reload historical data" in Ninja -- may have to reload strategies. In the meantime you can look at an IB chart and delete the bad bar. Pain in the neck!

    Ninja workaround -- scroll chart

    Ninja workaround -- scroll chart so that bad tick runs off the left side. If anyone with good SRS data is willing to pm me with ma price and time values for the original and second SRS Swing systems (not the newest one) I would like to check what I'm seeing thx
