Hi,

I have a folder on my PC with futures data (txt files from CSI data).
At 7.15 pm EST time, there is an auto download, which updates the data on a daily basis.

I have the Strategy Monitor set to run at 7.30 pm EST.
It runs fine, the logs (attached) show that the run is being performed on all symbols.

I am on raw profit mode, X lots, (settings in the Strategy Monitor).
I am executing on Bar+1, and am not using AtClose orders.

CODE:
Please log in to see this code.


Despite this, I am not seeing any alerts.
What else could be causing this issue ?

Hi,

Unfortunately, ASCII data is not supported by the Strategy Monitor:

Strategy Monitor Scheduling problem on ASCII DataSet
Strategy doesn't run in SM on set time
Strategy gives error in Strategy Monitor but runs fine in Strategy Window
Intraday strategy in Strategy Monitor with ASCII Data Provider

Same with MetaStock and other providers that do not have the update on demand capability by their very nature.
