According to a manager at Mirus, whom I spoke to this morning after "upgrading' to NT v18, going forward there is no "Total Volume" Market Analyzer data available. His comment was that this is one of the "features" of the new release, not a bug. That is, Mirus, Zenfire, and/or the CME giveth, and when it no longer serves them, they taketh away.
He was careful to note that he didn't think other volume information was affected or removed, just Total Volume.

Can you load a chart for example CL 2-14 and a CL 3-14 (15min) and see if the charts are identical?

Do you use zenfire?
Did you do the upgrade to version 18?

There is something wrong with this version!
Tray to ad another instrument with the next front month and you will see that it is grabbing the current trading month and I have noticed this too if you open a chart.
For example:

You open a CL 2-14 contract chart and a CL 3-14 contract chart. The data that is loaded on the 3-14 chart is not from the 3-14 month but from the 2-14 and when it is loaded then it will begin to read the data from the 3-14 contract so you get a mixed chart from 2-14 and 3-14.
The same is happening in analyzer!

So with this behavior all the data that is coming in is not reliable!

yes to both. using zen-fire and upgraded to version 18.

expect the daily volume, I can't find anything wrong. the volume data I get for es seems to be correct.

It has noting to do with the volume indicator but with the incoming data.

Just load 2 ES charts for example with different front months and you will see that they will be the same because it is loading the data from the current month

you mean like this:



yes, the volume indicator is fine, but the "daily volume" in market analyzer is not. that's why I suggested to use the volume indicator instead of "daily volume".

Yes like that.

Do you have mergepolicy disabled?

When I have mergepolicy enabled I get the same charts loaded. Data in the 6-14 chart is loaded from the 3-14 chart.

So now if I disable merge policy I cannot get a full year of data on my chart!

Just admit that there is something wrong and fix it!

The problem here is that when the mergepolicy is on, the data that is loaded for the instruments for whatever month is always from the current trading month and when the chart or market analyzer is finished with loading than it is getting the data from the selected month!

It was never working like that! I always had my mergepolicy on and the information was always loaded accordingly the selected contract month.

I am wondering if you may be confusing the Daily Volume column vs a column showing a value for the Volume indicator?

For clarification:

Volume Indicator column - Is calculated from the DataSeries (1 minute , Daily bar etc..) that it is based on and this series is different depending on the Merge policy settings.

Daily Volume column - This is not an indicator but a passed through value from your market data provider.

In short -

As of the time of this post, Zen-Fire is not currently pushing through Daily Volume thus this column in the MA would not show any value. If you opt to then use a Volume Indicator, if you have merge policy set to merge, you will get the same values at this time, if you set to DoNotMerge, you will get the values you seek but you will also only get a chart series for that specific contract...not a merged contract.

Forget the Volume that is not the problem.
The problem is that when you open 2 charts, one with the current trading month and one for the next trading month you get 2 identical charts! That is not how NT was working with the mergepolicy on.

Yes that is expected and has behaved this way since version 1 of NinjaTrader 7 when the current date is less than the pre-defined rollover date set in the Instrument Manager. This is what I was trying to say in my prior response to you in post #14 highlighted below in blue.

This is a result of using the Merge Policy which will use the same historical bar data until the pre-defined rollover date in NinjaTrader.

If you require further assistance on this matter, I am happy to put you in touch with one of my customer service representatives.
