I have a chartbook opened with 1, 5,15,65,and 195 minutes,and, daily, weekly, and Monthly charts open. I have a Quoteboard open with 20 stocks. When I chose a stock to view the charts, the weekly and monthly charts come up. I get a message on the other charts, "Waiting to Download Historical Data. But, it never happens. This occurs about 90% of the time. This makes the charting package absolutely worthless. I am using a TD Ameritrade datalink with Sierra Charts Historical Data. Any suggestion on how to get the charts to update? I am also using the VSA add-on study.
