All Trades

When the program is connected to the server and there are trades, the program receives deals from the market. Transactions are received in one of the following cases:

  • The agent is running with the selected instrument.

  • The script laboratory with the selected instrument is open and the option "Update in real time" is enabled in the script properties.

  • Instruments are displayed in the table View - Quotes.

  • Deals are requested in the table View - All trades.

In the Agent mode, an agent is calculated on the basis of these trades, and bars are built from these trades. When disconnected from the data provider, the received data from the RAM is written to "bin.gz" files in the ProviderNameCacheTrade folder.

The folder is on the same level as the program logs folder. You can go to the folder from the program by selecting the Main menu item: Tools - Cache folder. If you turn off the program from the windows task manager, then the data may not be written to the hard drive.

Trades contain much more data than downloaded bars. For example, having only deals, you can use cluster analysis.

If you turn off the program from the Windows Task Manager, the data may not be written to the hard drive. Or register with an error, and the next time you connect to the broker, the chart may stop updating. In this case, you should delete the bin.gz file for the last day, with the program turned off. (a very rare situation, even in those cases when the lights turned off and the computer stopped working abruptly)

If the lab is not updated in real time or the agent is not updated, and only ready-made bars arrive at the end of the timeframe, then deals do not arrive or the "Update in real time" flag in the script properties is not enabled, and the lab may also have limiting option date to.

If transactions do not come with an active connection and there are trades on the market, this is a reason to contact the broker's support service or our support service.

If there are trades, but the bars on the chart or in the laboratory are not built in real time, check the Windows regional settings.

If the time in transactions differs from the time specified in the data provider, then the problem is clearly with the regional settings.

Also, if the "Local time" option is set in the data provider's settings and the local time of the computer differs from the time in transactions, this is a reason to install Windows updates and set the region corresponding to the physical location of the computer, or, if this does not solve the problem, contact support TSLab.
