Features of the software in 24/7 mode

1. If you do not use the graph limit on the number of candles and the number of candles exceeds 20,000, the program will not be able to free memory timely, which may lead to the "Out of Memory Exception" error and the program will crash. This situation is most common for the 32-bit version.

2. In case of using tick or second charts, you should use the 64-bit version to ensure the stable operation of the software, unless a quantitative limit to 20,000 candles is applied.

3. If the number of candles is unlimited and the script with the active parameter "Update in real time" (laboratory mode) is running on an ongoing basis or the agent is running, it is recommended to restart the program daily (manually or according to a schedule), but at least once a week.

4. To ensure recalculation of agents with minimum delay, one processor core per agent is required.

Running on virtual machines

ATTENTION! TSLab Technical Support does not address resource shortages when working on virtual machines. Overselling is an important feature for Servers Symptoms are brakes without any reason at the same time.
