Sometimes I get the "no data" indicator or only parital data for a quote. This generally means that I have exceeded my symbol count. Go into Data Manager and purge the symbols that you don't need. My subscription limits me to 50, but this can be increased. I use Tradewind for my charts, they are much better than SEOL at this time.

Thanks DrSv; It's definitely not related to exceeding my 50 symbols. It's like random holes in the data. I may get the Last, but not Bid & Ask. Also, reloading fixes it. Wierd, I know. Together with Index intradays with only 1 tantalizing bar of data (you keep hoping for more) distracted me so much, that I gave up. The update on the beta is still Dec. 12. When it changes, I'll try again. I know Tradewinds is supposed to be super, but have already paid for Tradestation (enuff!)which I use offline during the day, in tandem with SE online. Those charts are also very good - just not realtime. Next version is supposed to take the DBC internet feed. On & on! d.alexander
