Hello, Wondering if anyone else has seen this problem and has a workaround. Normally, merging two symbols is easy, and I've done so many times. But when I try to merge my recent data on the symbol EUR.USD-IDEALPRO-CASH from IB, with a corresponding segment of historical data under a different symbol name, e.g. EURhist, AB hangs and never completes the merger.
If I go the other way, i.e. keeping EURhist as the "Destination" symbol and EUR.USD-IDEALPRO-CASH as the "merge with" synbol, then it will merge BUT will delete the latest data from EUR.USD-IDEALPRO-CASH. So that's no good. And then when I change the name of EURhist to EUR.USD-IDEALPRO-CASH, I can't get the live data to start streaming again for the "live" Symbol. Before trying to merge, I disconnect TWS so that there is no interference from the live data stream, but it makes no difference. I just can't seem to merge current EUR.USD-IDEALPRO-CASH data with any historical data. Am I doing something wrong? Or is this some kind of bug?
