Quality Control Concerns – Version 8.1.6.2 Volume Profile Issue Persistence Bug

Ninjatrader team,

The latest update (8.1.6.2 64-bit) released today, still hasn’t fixed the Volume Profile issues reported by hundreds of traders. The lack of quality assurance in these releases is frankly ridiculous.

The state of the current 8.1.6.2 (64-bit) update is unacceptable. Despite exhaustive feedback from the community regarding the Volume Profile, the issue persists.

It is difficult not to draw a line between the recent acquisition by Kraken and the apparent lack of care regarding platform stability. The dissemination of updates that haven’t been properly vetted for quality is a disservice to your user base.

I, along with many others, am forced to question the current trajectory of the platform. Please provide a clear timeline for when these core features will be restored to a functional state.

This is a screencast of the current persisting issue with the new udpate that NinjaTrader releaased today. The volume profile now has a new problem which could’ve been easily detected in the quality check. But alas, it was not.

If anyone is able to reach out to Martin Franchi, the CEO of Ninja Trader on LinkedIn, please do so and voice your concern as to what’s happening with the platform, maybe he can shed some light on the new strategy and the new direction because from the recent rollouts, something is happening.

I’ve noticed the same decline in update quality. The latest version rendered the platform nearly unusable for me, with 5x slower load times and significant chart lag. To make matters worse, support offered an irrelevant solution regarding software I don’t use. I’ve reverted to the previous version and hope these stability issues are addressed properly before we are forced to update again.

Just saw this, so went ahead and downloaded and upgraded from my 8.1.5.2 and tested out the volume profile again. I am no longer seeing improperly sized volume profiles. In addition, in 8.1.6.2, NinjaScript was returning the same value for VOH, VOL, and POC from an embedder indicator. Now with 8.1.6.3, it is returning proper values for all three.

So for me, looks like volume profile has been fixed, at least for my use cases.
