We added a new status to the Data Status window to help identify when the downloader is writing information to disk. It will perform this operation when it's in the process of "catching up".  During this time, it will appear that your charts are out of date as it is downloading and updating to the latest bars. Depending on the speed of your internet connection, your hard drives and how busy your system is this make take longer than expected. 

If you see the  "Writing" status as in the image below, then you are connected and your computer is downloading the data correctly.    If you have stockfinder open for a minute and you do  not get any connection or status information for the data downloader, then we have a new log file that support would like to gather from you. Please post here if you are still not getting a data connection.



P.S. - It may take the downloader anywhere from 10-45 seconds at start up to even get an initial data connection to the server. Please be patient as it performs its connection cycle.
