Lately I noticed a bug that affected EOD updates with partial bar enabled. To be fixed in v2020.05 (late April). For now you should recreate the DataSet and disable "Add partial bar" in the New DataSet Wizard.

Otherwise you have to provide a detailed error report which contains:

1. Symbols,
2. Did I say "symbols"?,
3. Bar scale
4. DataSet settings (Add partial bar and/or Keep weekend bars)
5. Data update log

Hi!
I am trying to use MFD data provider instead of Finam. But when I try to add a new ticker to already created data set, WLD reports about an error: "The index is out of range. The index must be a positive number, and its size must not exceed the size of the collection". What is wrong?

Works for me. Apparently, it depends on symbols.

Did I say "symbols"?

Works perfectly. You should always read the online user guide before reporting errors and issues:

MFD static/streaming data provider > Usage notes

* When manually editing a DataSet, make sure you wrap symbols with a space in double quotes! e.g. "Company Ltd", NOT Company Ltd. Otherwise you'll get an exception.

Creat data set with SI-6.19 (SIM9) only.
Update it.
Then add SI-3.20 (SIH0) RTS-3.20 (RIH0) manualy. I have an error on this step.

Since they contain spaces, you must wrap them all in double quotes when adding or editing.

Note: Each symbol must be quoted individually, both the existing and the new ones e.g. "SI-6.19 (SIM9)" "SI-3.20 (SIH0)".

Applies to the DataSets tree and the Data Manager alike. This is true for any data providers whose symbology accepts symbols with spaces e.g. QuoteMedia.

Thanks! It is clear now. I have never meet empty space in ticker's name before. And one observation. It must be "- symbol printed in some plain text editor. Microsoft Word uses different symbols. They do not fit.
Thanks!

It's a worthwhile observation. I would have never used MS Word for the task of editing symbol names as text processors in fact may turn your minus sign into an em/en dash!

The difference between a dash and a minus sign
