Broker Data Feeds
In addition, we have integrated several broker and gateway datafeeds which you can use for analysis / trade origination and/or execution purposes. Each of the integrated APIs support order routing on top of the typical data retrieval function;
- Local & Downloadable Data
Local & Downloadable Data
The S-Trader app can be used with local data files in ASCII / TXT, CSV or Metastock / Binary format. You can use your local data with pre-existing data templates or you can define your own customized data templates. In addition, you can chose to store historical data supplied by your streaming connector(s) in local S-Trader data files in a proprietary, low-density format. This allows you to run multiple tests and scans with data downloaded in a single request;
- Multiple Simultaneous Streaming Connectors
Multiple Simultaneous Streaming Connectors
Unlike other apps, the S-Trader platform can manage multiple simultaneous connectors. You can freely choose how some of your module instances or items are powered.
In addition, with the cross-feed order posting feature you can choose to run algo trading models on one feed, view charts on an other one and post results, orders and trades to a third one. No other application in the world offers this much power and flexibility and this kind of high performance and load balancing;
- Plug Your Own Feed
Plug Your Own Feed
Our S-Trader platform is developed on a completely customizable architecture. If the data feeds and APIs already integrated in our app do not suffice and you have more special requirements, our team of programmers and specialists can assist you plug in whatever local, downloadable or streaming data feed you need. Data providers or broker feeds can be supported alike.
