I deleted Ninja 7 from my computer today........I'm thinking it's NOT time.

When they release a version that is NOT beta I will reconsider.

Doesn't sound like you're having separation anxiety.

What happened?

I found only one thing that needed attention and that is running the Gom Recorder on a chart vs. Market Analyzer. But that is custom indy stuff not NT 7.

I had no choice but to run NT 7 for several days right through this week without rebooting and it was only this morning that I noticed gaps in my Gom data. Since there is 3 fold redundancy, found the one with chart recording was fine & here is the chart.

(1) Delete DOM and open a new one.

(2) If (1) did not work, shut down NT, rename the folder Own Documents -> NinjaTrader 7 to NinjaTrader 7 Old and restart NinjaTrader. Does it work now? If not you can delete the new folder NinjaTrader 7 and re-rename the old one. If yes, you may now copy the contents of the old folder to the new one bit by bit.

(3) If (2) did not help, make a backup, then rename that folder to NinjaTrader 7 Old and then reinstall NinjaTrader. Now copy the contents from the old folder as you need them.

I know it's always a risk to leave me alone with a computer (because of my superior skills). so I'm not blaming nt for the issue.

the good thing is, it's working fine again. uninstalled and reinstalled nt 7. just saved my indicators and started from scratch.

thanks for all the help.

Hey Andy,

The thing that got me about Ninja 7 was their "attempt" at getting what resembled a continuous contract. Of course I had no idea that this was a "feature" with Ninja 7 and that it would only be an issue on contract rollover day.......which is the day I happen to go live with it........

I spent some time with Ryan from Ninja trying to figure out why my charts were all screwed up and he finally figured it out...........I just had to disable the continuous contract feature.

Then..........I figured that I would go back to 6.5 where I would get no more "surprises".......only to find that all the work that I did on Ninja 7 (indicator wise) had affected my Ninja 6.5 !!!!

That was it..........right then and there I decided to dump all the work that I had put into Ninja 7 and the related indicators and restore all the 6.5 stuff.

I liked many of the features that version 7 had but they were not enough to make me want to put up with the "betaness" of it. When they come out with an official release I'll take another look.

Hope all goes well with your treatment.

Best ,Jeff

This is probably redundant, but did you click on the little [F] in the price margin (upper right-hand corner)?

After all, it's what you learn AFTER you know it all, that counts!

Yes. Still doesn't work properly.

I'm grasping at straws, here, but maybe this will help. I had a similar problem (can't remember exactly what) recently and right-clicked on the price margin & brought up 'properties' and changed the TYPE from Logarithmic to Linear & that seemed to solve my problem. See if it helps. Hope it does.
