Hello Sierra,

Just wondering why $DXY on the Historical charts is missing data after 9pm GMT over the last week or so as it's usually a 24hr symbol.

Thanks.

Use the symbol USDX which is part of market statistics:

I do use the USDX market stats for a guide and for real-time but I find the $DXY to be the most accurate and reliable Dollar Index feed to use when setting up entries.

Going from the BarChart website it seems the same data is missing. Would you say its a temporary issue..?

The Sierra Chart USDX symbol is accurately calculated.

What we can see is that the $DXY is now only calculated in the day session. This does not look temporary.

Hi SC,

It does look as though BarChart are looking into it with their programmers at the moment as I contacted them about it, looks to be an issue they are having. Just so you're aware if anyone else asks :)

Just as an update and a FYI, another response.. As well using the market stats dollar index there is another alternative using DXY00

This is an issue our programmers continue to grapple with. I'll let you know if I hear any updates. I apologize for the inconvenience. In the interim, I suggest looking at DXY00 for an alternative.

Looks like the $DXY is back up and running 24hrs from the 25th now.
