Anybody has issue where the Downloading Historical Graph message is stalled there ? The graph simply don't load completely.
Also I can't see the proper market depth.

It can take a long time.

We recommend setting this to 5 days or less:
Sierra Chart Server Settings: Maximum Historical Market Depth Days to Download (Global Settings >> Sierra Chart Server Settings >> General >> General)

And then cancel the downloads:

And then specifically download what you need following the instructions here:

What do you mean by "message is stalled there"? Is there an actual message that is not going away?

It can take some time for the Market Depth data to download, after which the chart will automatically reload.

You just have to wait for Rithmic to solve the problem

You could try removing all references for the need for Market Depth data, so the request for it will not occur. We do not know if the issue with Rithmic is the Market Depth data specifically, or their data in general. But it is something you can try.

You can also try a different server and see if that resolves the issue.
