Hi,
This is a first for me.
I setup the three strategies (day, 1 minute, 10 second) the evening before.
At 6AM PT when the PC woke up there was a run of the strategies.
As a result the stream button high light was gone.
And at 6:30:00 onwards nothing was happening.
Restarted WL8. This time I saw the message in red: streaming connection failed.
Checked data manager / streaming providers.
Schwab window said 6 more days to go.
Wondering if this is a common problem with Schwab today?
The back test runs fine and receives data.
Thanks!

It is now a little past 7 AM PT and streaming from Schwab is working.
It would be good to know what happened?
Is the message I saw clear indication that it was a Schwab delivery issue?
Thanks!

No idea. Anything in the Log Viewer about it?

Good point.
From here on out "Log Viewer" is my first go to place.
Since I restarted WL8 earlier messages are gone.
But even in this second pass at 6:38 there is a message:
"streaming socket failed start"
Later on: streaming connection

It looks like an issue with the Schwab end.
Wonder if they have a web site where they announce such down time?
Or a community site where others also report
Finally, in this case the streaming WL8 windows did not start so there was no issue.
But what if this happens while there is a position.
Is there a way for my C# code to read the log viewer and alert so I can unload by calling Schwab on POTS?

It's not determinate that there was a problem at Schwab, only that it wasn't possible to connect after several attempts.

This should work to check the status of Streaming from a Strategy, but you'd have to schedule it to run in the Strategy Monitor (use polling every 1 minute).

QUOTE:
bool schwabStreamingIsConnected = WealthLab.Schwab.SchwabStreaming.Instance.IsConnected;

This just checks the status. You will have had to request the connection at some time during the session for this to be true.
