a separate question, please:
how can one avoid data gaps when not online? I am using the new bridge.

Also, how can one use the historical data and then continue with the bridge data. when I tried, it does not add the new data at all.

thanks you

I had the same problem! What I did was; I downloaded the mtgoxUSD.scid from here


SCID full history files:
from first trade 07/17/2010 23:09:17, to 04/30/2013 23:59:59 (UTC, tick accurate, precision 2):
(extract to C:\SierraChart\data\ before starting SierraChart)

http://we.lovebitco.in/schart/otherALL.scid.UTC.7z (8.2MB/86.4MB)


Then I made a new text file and named it scUTC.cmd. I edited this file with this
Code:
start sierrachartfeedUTC.exe --history=13
I used 13 because as of writing (12-5-2013) the last record in the mtgoxUSD.scid file is over 12 days ago. The default is 7 days, so it skips the 6 days before it creating the hole
Once you have all historical data, it does "opening streaming socket..."
