We want to point out that when you are connected to "SC Data - All Services" you are getting our Delayed Streaming Data. As such, what can happen when you first open your chartbooks is that the missing data is downloaded up to the current point in time, but since you are getting the delayed data, you would not see any updates to the data until the delay amount has passed (10 - 15 minutes depending on the exchange). Therefore, the first thing is to make sure that you wait long enough to ensure that the time has passed.

If the above is not the issue, then our servers show that you are using multiple sub-instances. Are you having a problem in just a sub-instance, or in the main instance?

If you are continuing to have an issue, then we would need to see your Message Log by following these instructions:

Follow the instructions here to clear the Message Log:

Message Log: Clearing the Message Log

Close all of the Chartbooks with "File >> Close All Chartbooks".

Open a single chart for the symbol you have an issue with through "File >> Find Symbol". Tell us that symbol of the chart. Tell us about *one* symbol only.

Disconnect from the data feed with "File >> Disconnect".

Connect to the data feed with "File >> Connect to Data Feed".

After the connection and after about 10 seconds, provide a copy of the Message Log following these instructions:
Support Board Posting Information: How to Post Your Message Log (Required In Some Cases)

We will then determine what the problem is.
