I just signed up for DTNIQ, so forgive me if I sound a little wet behind the ears here (I'm comming from an eSignal world). I have the CME & CBOT futures package and I am looking at the charts right now. Here's my question, when I am looking at the chart, I see the time but no date at the bottom. The verticle bars seem to be stuck in the 23:00 time position (but there is no date.). At the top, all I have are of course the changing figures, but no date changes or time changes just the time saying 23:00. When I zoom in, I get a closer look, oddly enough, the horizontal bars don't change their markings just adapt to the zoomed look but still saying "23:00". This is a little confusing for me. I have normally 10-minute bars or another time frame, and still the same effect. So when I zoom in I'm not sure what day or period of time I am looking at, only that these are 10-minute (or whatever period I choose) bars. Now, at the other end, the lower left hadn side it shows a date from way in the past. I can understand if this is the start date of the chart, but when I zoom in it still says this. Sorry if I sound like an idiot here, but this is a little different than what I am used to. Any help would be appreciated.

First, I apologize for the time it took to reply.

I think you were experiencing a problem that was caused by a bug in our data. We have corrected the bug and you should be seeing the date stamp correctly in charts now.

Please let us know if you aren't.
