Generate Minute/Day bar from tick resolution
Posted: Dec 11 2014
hello everyone,
This is my first post on this forum. I'm completely new to multicharts.net but I have some experience in c# dev. I also use NT for 6 years now.
Yesterday I imported more than 20years of historical data (tick resolution) for a single instrument ( using ASCII file - 25go, takes me 6hours to import the file ).
The thing is when I want to generate a chart even for 365 days backs, it takes a lot of time each time I load the chart. (approx. 4-5mn for 50 bars, and 15mn for a year).
Is there a way to generate and save the bars once for all, before loading a chart ? In NT, when you load a chart for a recently imported instrument for the first time, it will generate automatically the bars in the specified time frame.
I searched in this forum, wiki and FAQ but I never saw a mention concerning this problem.
Backtest are even worse because it crash before finishing (waiting for more than 20min and MC.net crashed - excess ram usage 10go.
