Sorry Silvester, I am blind - where in release notes do you see this about the 32/64 bit stuff (being able to choose your version), I am not seeing it.

Mike

What OS are you running? It's 64-bit?

In the post Fat Tails made I couldn't see anything about 64-bit selection. I went to NT site to find the release notes, but they've redone their site and I couldn't find them right off, I will look later or if someone has a link to the official release notes that would be great. I'm just curious.

here's the link:

NinjaTrader 7 Features

Look inside the Account Connection settings.

I'm still not very good at that.

previous version you had 2 icons to start NT. one nt7 and the other one nt7 64-bit. plus in account connections you could enable the 64-bit version. now it says 32 and 64 version.

found this in the release notes:

64-bit NinjaTrader

We have added native support for running NinjaTrader in a 64-bit environment. During installation, NinjaTrader will detect the presence of a 64-bit OS and install both 32-bit and 64-bit application icons on your desktop. NinjaTrader will fully utilize a 64-bit multi-core environment especially in the area of strategy development and optimization. There is a catch in that not all of our broker and market data adapters provide native 64-bit DLL's thus however, you can still use the 32-bit version.


but I only had 1 icon on my desktop

Hmm, so you can no longer choose which version you want, it selects 64 bit if you are on 64-bit OS I presume?

Mike

Hi,

It installs both versions on a 64 Bit OS, then you can just run whichever you want. They share the Ninja7 My Docs directory, which is handy (for many people, I assume) So, you can run whichever you like, but not both at the same time. If you only get one icon on a 64 bit OS, the solution is usually the old uninstall completely, clear your browser cache etc (or maybe it's just reinstall!)

Beware though, there is a problem with non-US 64 bit usage of Zen Fire. Ninjatrader 7.0 64-bit not connecting to Zenfire - [AUTOLINK]NinjaTrader[/AUTOLINK] Support Forum
