Hi,
Some indexes, e.g. Nikkei225, gets the data from yahoo or stooq with a delay of more than 24h.
Impossible to trade a system with these indexes based on alerts.
Is it possible to add manually the last data to the charts? I found some *.WL files but i can't open these files in a readable way for adding manually some dates.
Regards daniel

For Yahoo, you can use partial bar to get the current day's data (Data Manager > Yahoo! > "Always return data with partial bar"). For more information please refer to the User Guide.

If you intend to do it for multiple instruments in batch mode, then it's cumbersome but possible:
1. See Bars.
SaveToFile in the QuickRef.
2. Write a script to append your last bar data (that exist elsewhere - for example, CSV file, web etc.) to the Bars object.
3. Next step is to connect the .WL files:
Is it possible to create a DataSet from bars generated using SaveToFile (*.WL)?

Open chart of interest
Right click on last bar
Select edit bar
Enter information for new bar including date...click OK.
You got a new bar
Repeat if you need to add another or few more...

Good point Harapa. That would be feasible for a few instruments only (otherwise it gets tedious and error-prone).
