Issue with Slow Historical Data Loading on Low Timeframes
Issue with Slow Historical Data Loading on Low Timeframes
09 Sep 2024, 11:20
Hi,
I'm facing an issue with historical data loading on very low timeframes (such as 1 minute or below) in cTrader. The platform currently loads data in increments of 1000 bars, which is incredibly slow and not very efficient for my needs. I often require at least 100,000 bars of historical data for my analysis, and loading this amount of data takes a very long time.
Is there any way to cache historical data locally, so it can be quickly accessed next time I launch the platform? Alternatively, what is the most efficient method to load a large amount of historical data quickly?
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Best regards,
Jan

Hi Jan,
Unfortunately caching is not available. However loading time is not affected by the increment size but by the network bandwidth.
