My application is requesting historical one minute bars for the current day through ActiveX for 30 stocks (DOW 30).
When my app gets the ES_OnBarsReceived message, it calls GetGetNumBars to get the number of bars, and then loops with calls GetGetBar to collect the bars. It is based directly on the C++ sample provided by eSignal.
Today (during market hours) GetGetBar is taking about .5 seconds to return a single bar. So, it would take about an hour to return the days data for 30 stocks.
Nothing significant has changed with my code. it has been occasionally slow in the past, but never like this.
Does eSignal put some low priority on ActiveX requests? I do have other activity going on in eSignal.
Help...I've lost the whole day so far...
