Hello Chuck and anyone who cares to help, I am also having problems with my data not updating. I am using esignal RT and running scan or exploration with "wait for backfill" checked. I am using Amibroker 4.89. I actually tried forcing backfill, and my data dissappeared in front of me for the last 3 or 4 months or so. I have checked the same symbols in esignal charting package and all data is there. This happened on EOD/Intraday mixed, but I copied my database and made it EOD only and am currently forcing backfill on all my symbols (which appears to work, but I really want intraday as well)...It is a very long process right clicking and forcing the backfill by hand, but since the "wait for backfill" doesn't overwrite (as far as I know) this is my only option at this stage. Is there any way to "force backfill" automatically (i.e. where it actually replaces data back to the beginning) using AFL in a scan or exploration? I would appreciate any ideas. Thanks Sam
