You could say that the ability to exchange data between chart and Radarscreen for example is a huge performance improvement. In terms of speed I haven't done any tests, but from what I noticed it's not slower than before.

Regards,
ABCTG

What about memory guys. Any idea ...I think the previous versions used up if I recollect 1MB of memory. So in my case though I have a 20GB or more memory since I run huge number of indicators which gradually causes a memory leak. For that reason I always have to open my station before RTH and close after RTH. I cannot leave it running for 2-3 days...tops 1 day to avoid an abrupt crash. Have you faced this...rather does 9.5 solve this.

Cheers

I'm still using TS v9.1 u29. I have a system I built myself in 3/2011: Asus Deluxe mobo, Intel i7 , 16 GB, 4 monitors, 2 nVidia video cards, recently upgraded to a 480 GB SSD. I have 7 charts and 1 RadarScreen. Windows Task Manager shows very low CPU usage 1%-3% for TS total all windows. I have 7 orchart.exe's running. View > Chart Analysis Preferences, "Multiple CPU cores" is [B]enabled[/B]. I don't leave my system running overnight because I don't need to. It would also create too much wear and tear on the 7 fans, too much dust, etc...

I'm actually a little disappointed. I built this uber powerful system and I'm hardly using any resources. I think the total RAM TS is using is less than 1 GB. Keep in mind, even though TS is "only" a 32-bit Windows application, each EXE instance can still access its own block of 4 GB of RAM. Of course, each orchart.exe and even RadarScreen would never actually need 4 GB RAM.

I have never had any memory leaks with TS 9.1. TS is usually well behaved and I rarely have problems with it. I will not upgrade to 9.5 because it's still in Beta. I suspect 9.5 won't exit Beta until February or March 2015.

Perhaps you have a memory leak because you have a driver problem. You could also be running another program other than TS which is conflicting, such as a utility or anti-virus program. Although many claim Norton Internet Security is a resource hog, I have not noticed anything. Try using Sysinternals Process Explorer v16.04, a Microsoft program, to see which programs are using too many resources.

If you're using an AMD CPU or non-nVidia based system, you might want to switch to an Intel/nVidia based system.

techstocktrader ,
Tell me about running another exe instance ?

Should I do that if I am testing multiple strategies on incoming data ?

Would that allow me to test multiple strategies on one instrument ?

Are there any disadvantages to this ?


thanks

shane

Hi everyone,
how can I achive to keep the body width of my candles in a tick chart slim with still plenty of space in between when zooming in as it used to work with earlier versions? I run the latest Tradestation version and Im just unable to get the same setup. The more I zoom in the more the candles get fat and don't leave any space in between. Much thanks!

Best regards

Not sure if this is what you are looking for but have you tried the 'increase bar spacing' or the 'decrease bar spacing' icons on the tool bar.

If you don't have the tool bar visible at the top of your chart go to 'view' then go down to 'toolbars' then click on 'main' and then the toolbar will show and hover over the icons until you find the bar spacing icons and see if that helps.

Yes I tried this, but instead of increasing the space in between , the width of the candle body gets wider as well and the actual space stays the same. The result is more like a densed candle compound.

@rahulgopi are you currently on 9.5 which release.

Am still holding onto 9.1

Did all the Zunaa stuff work fine seamlessly or any tweaks were needed. Had seen a earlier post on changes to El collections

Thnx

Yes, I am running 9.5 with the latest update (11). The only requirement for Zunaa on 9.5 is to install the latest ELCollections. Since all the old indicators are packaged with the old ADE functions, you may have to install some of the indicators from the ELD file after upgrade, making sure to unselect the MAP / ADE functions.

These are functions from ADE that are imported into the ELD files from Zunaa . If you have a spare laptop / PC, try it first before experimenting with the working one. Also, I found it better to have a fresh install of 9.5 rather than going thru the upgrade process from 9.1.
