"List has no data" Error

[bgrayson09]

I have ETF Bandit running on 3 Windows 7 PCs. Today two of these PC are producing correct results while my primary PC, a HP Pavilion g6 running Windows 7, is not. Instead of “High Probability Trades for Symbols.txt on 8/17/12”, it is showing “List has no data” and incorrect buy/sell signals. Other applications on this PC are running fine. I had to run a System Restore on this PC this weekend which ran with no problems.

How do I correct this problem? Is it wise for us to confirm the Bandit’s buy/sell signals on a second PC?

Thanks…bg

Update: On the "bad PC", I uninstalled ETF Bandit and then reinstalled it. Now this instance of the program is working correctly. Still believe that restoring this Windows 7 PC to a previous Restore Point is somehow connected to this issue. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

The message 'List has no data' normally means that the price history has not been downloaded from Yahoo for that symbol list. If it happens again, check the 'Snapshots' directory and delete any files that you find in there. That may have the effect of 'resetting' the data.
