  • getMostRecentBid = 0

    I have an efs that calls getMostRecentBid and getMostRecentAsk on every tick. Sometimes, these functions return 0. Why is this? (It doesn't seem to be related to a new bar forming).

    Hello almerger,

    Which symbols have you been experiencing this with? These functions should not be returning 0s.

      This happens with the ES M6 contract. Since eSignal's BidAskVolume.efs checks for a zero return, I think it's considered to be a meaningful return. But I don't know what it means. It happens periodically as the EFS is running, seemingly unrelated to a new bar condition. Also happens with getMostRecentAsk().

        same problem

        I have the same problem with the ES #F in an adv. bar chart.

        in my *efs I tested the problem with:
        ...debugPrint (if getMostRecentBid()=0 debugPrint....) an I received more than 50times "0" during a trading session

          Hello Torso/almerger,

          Please let me know what build number you are both using currently. So far in my testing I've seen some 0's come through on 7.9.1 (build 738), but I've yet to see one on 8.0 (build 779).
