nt8 update restarts vwap in middle of session on computer startup
Thank you Fat Tails.They actually had me using fxcm feed for forex for a day...amazing spreads.The forex.com spreads are much larger unfortunately.However , we cant use fxcm in usa, so they pulled it after a day.Heres another thought.With the updated version of nt8, (8.0.14.2), for forex(no volume data) will the ama twap work?On the older version of nt8, the vwap running sisde by sise the twap for forex was so close, that i just stayed with the vwap.Thanks , Bob

I reboot my trade machine once a day. But other than that ... yeah it’s on.... so like 23hr 55min...lol
Before this last update so 14.1, I believe, NT8 closed down on me a few times and I think it had something to do with when the FOREX.COM feed. I had some kind of forex table data problem. Seems it had to do with when the FOREX.COM feed reset on their end and it effected NT8 somehow.
The chart does not look good to me. If you look at the very last bar, then the SD bands are contracting. This points to a problem with real-time volume versus back fill. Real-time volume seems to be much higher than backfill, probably taken from a different source.
We could see this confirmed, if you were willing to add a simple volume histogram to your chart.
Thats weird....yeah, so when i turn on my machine at 3:15, it starts vwap over,,,,so frustrating.Im trying to find out if the ama twap(time based) would do this as well.If not, i will use twap instead.Just out of curiosity, could give me an idea of your spreads on a couple of pairs during high trading hours?Im looking at between 1.5 and say, 2.4 typically on the tightest spreads, in for example ujsdjpy,eurjpy.The eurusd is always within .2, which is nice.

I saw that too. Sorry I was so short on time with my in-laws in town. Those bars that make the VWAP move so much had huge huge volume compared to the bars before them. I mean real big. I can post more about it once I’m home.
Thanks for all the info Fat Tails.So, with NT 8.0.14.2, all the ama indicators(with current membership) work well?I am interested in the ama current day TWAP,since i trade forex now..However, if the ama current day vwap plots well with price , i should be able to use this as well?
