Capital Flow 3.7 Data Adjustments

Adjusting Corn (and other grain contracts) Contract Data from Steidlmayer to Aspen updating

It is necessary to adjust back data acquired from the Steidlmayer servers when updating from Aspen Graphics / DTN. There are 3 steps involved:

1. Open the corn contract to be changed. Using the Utilities -> Edit Symbol function, change the Minimum Increment to "1" from "2". Hit the OK button to close the dialog. Close the Corn contract so it is not visible on the contract screen.
2. Using the Utilities -> Apply Multiplier to Old Data function, select the Corn contract and in the dialog that opens, specify "0.5" as the offset (that's zero, period, five). Click OK to multiply (actually divide) the data. 
3. Open the Corn contract  If there was bad data from a recent Aspen request that did not match the existing Steidlmayer data, use the Feed -> Fix Bad Tick Rerequest Market Data function in Capital Flow 3.7 to wipe out the old data and pull in new. Be sure to specify a number of days sufficient to wipe out all the bad ticks. If there was no bad data, simply press the F12 key to update the contract. The new data should match the existing data.
