An extraction from broker market opening times:
Market Open
21:00 GMT Sunday evening (09-03-2014) - 00:00 Platform time Monday morning (10-03-2014)
Market Close
21:00 GMT Friday evening - 00:00 Platform time Saturday morning
Once England and Europe changes to DST on March 30th 2014 we will observe the times below.
Market Open
22:00 BST (GMT+1) Sunday evening - 00:00 Platform time Monday morning
Market Close
22:00 BST (GMT+1) Friday evening - 00:00 Platform time Saturday morning
However cTrader remains closed.

Going back through my screen recordings from Friday I noticed this was actually occurring from around 17:00.
The charts in cTrader keep on getting corrupted, how can I rely on it? Do I _really_ have to have NT or MT4 open to check that another error has occurred with their data?
I don't want to sound like a wet rag but it is unacceptable that this keeps on happening.
How can such a data error occur, each tick chart has drifted so far away...

At time of writing :
MarketSeries:
EURSGD 4 Hour, NZDJPY 1 Hour
Are inaccessible.
I have written a little indicator that outputs to a text file (getting around the limitation of writing to screen when error occurs).
It writes on Calculate() what it will test next into this file, thereby catching the faulty MarketSeries.
Then on the next Calculate() call it will test that symbol/timeframe pair, and if the indicator errors and doesn't continue, then obviously the last entry was the faulty pair.
However I have not done a complete job, it won't continue to test a further timeframe of that pair without me typing out all of the test combos.

XMarshall it is already covered with draw text at the moment.
ChartObjects.DrawText(String.Format("Arrow{0}", index), "▲", index, MarketSeries.Low[index], VerticalAlignment.Center, HorizontalAlignment.Center, Colors.Green);
Open up CharMap and lookup the extended character ranges.
Since cTrader supports these ranges there isn't need for stuff like wingdings.
Some constants for help:
private const string StraightUp = "↑";
private const string StraightDown = "↓";
private const string Sideways = "→";
private const string DiagonalUP = "↗";
private const string DiagonalDown = "↘";

Is it even possible to get the colours from your palette inside cTrader since they don't exist as named?
Additionally, creating candles from lines is an issue since there isn't a parameter type for "Colors" nor can you get "Colors" from an output type attribute that could be used in the drawline method.
So people can't change the colours of a set of candle replacements using an indicator without source code.
Any suggestions?

MarketData taking a very long time to load.
The multi-symbol multi-timeframe cBots that I have are stuck on MarketData.GetSeries for almost an hour now.
It isn't my connections, does the same in the Datacenter as well as on my local machine.
From what I can see, I am connected to Duesseldorf-1 at 96Kb/s.
Normally I am on LD5 or LD6 at anything between 2 to 6Mb/s.
I don't know if that is indicative of any issues you may have at the moment, but it is painful, and again another issue at the start of this week, when everyone in Cyprus is sleeping, and no rapid response is available.
