I realized, that there are little gaps in the data, so I right-clicked and did Delete and Download Data for the corresponding FX pairs.
With some pairs other gaps (little parts of missing data) occured. There seems to be a problem with that. Please advice what to do.

Thank you again for the quick fix!

Just downloading the data. Here I'm seeing, on a 1 min chart, that at 00:00 (midnight) EST (NY-time) that 1-2 bars are missing for all symbols that I'm downloading (e.g. USD/JPY, USD/CHF etc).
Hope this has nothing to do with the prior issue or the switch to the new day?!

We do see about one minute missing at midnight New York time from the data from FXCM. Not much we can do about that. Hopefully it will not recur.
