I’m getting the error, “Unable To Establish Connection (Panic)” at least several times every day.
Move up to a virtual private server (VPS) if you are running a simple strategy with out order flow. You can code a heart beat that will flash a background grid (or turn something on or off) to monitor as a visual cue if your remote desktop connection has frozen. Better up time and lower comm latency.
If you are trading with order flow then likely not a good idea due to data storage problems.
A two slice VPS should be less than $50 a month.
Run a hard ethernet line to your computer from your modem / router, to see if that fixes your connection issue.
Running NT over wifi is only asking for trouble especially if you’re downloading tick data. I would strongly advise putting your pc on a wired gigE connection.
Keep a command window open on the side and run a continuous ping to your internet gateway to see if you’re getting any packet drops.
ping -t Gateway-IP
Thank you. I’ve switched to direct ethernet, and have also set up a very cheap VPS with UptimeKuma so it alerts me via email, SMS and Slack if my PC goes offline. I’ve also created an addon that will email me if the data connection is lost
Sounds good @RunicTools.
Your problemas inspired me to get together a good Ai prompt for a systemic performance logger.
I don’t have time to flush it out yet. But it is on the To Do list to integrate this kind of systemic monitoring.
If there is something that would be cool to add to it, let me know.
Hello Guys, I recently noticed my NT8 is panic attacking like 5 times a day. I recently updated the NT version to latest. I have 128GB RAM with 16GB NVDA GPU and 4TB NVME and 16 core cpu hardwired cat 6 with 2gb fios network direct to router. .. it was working fine up until 2 days ago and now it keeps disconnecting and panic attack about 5-10x daily. what gives. .. anyone experienced this? any solutions to this? i even re-installed NT8 from scratch. still panic attack.
Whenever I have connection issues, they always stem from my provider (Rithmic). It’s not NT’s fault when they have problems. Who are you connecting too?

Which version are you using? i think there have been more problems with disconnects with the later versions. Mine is working fine with 8.152.
that s different from 8.1.5.0 Release Date,May 28, 2025 ?? it s impossible to get it now or what??
I get a panic disconnect almost daily, I also get other random disconnects. This happens from my home with a gigabit fiber connection and at work with a redundant SDWAN connection supplied by fiber from 2 different providers. that is a total of 3 providers. Not only that when I get a panic disconnect I can not log back in, it says too many failed logins please try later, the software itself is trying to reconnect automatically and somehow failing and locking itself out temporarily. This is on THEIR end, not on mine my Think or Swim does not lose connection, our phones at work are VOIP if MY connection was dropping the phone system would be going down.
when you get a panic error do you get an error when trying to log back in saying too many failed attempts? I am using Google to authenticate, it could be related to that but I am not going to go toe to toe with their ignorant AI bot support agent that asks me for my email address in a response to an email reply they it sent me.no time or patience for it.
