MarketCast provides real time data for the Australian markets.

Information comes to users via the television signal.



Features and limitations

Features

  • Offmarket data filter


Limitations

  • The Bid/Ask history is not supported (only real time data)
  • When plotting a minute chart, ticks will be requested because it is impossible to receive the history of minutes. It will deteriorate data reception performance
  • When importing new data in MarketCast Data Server and when creating a chart the whole history is requested once more


Setting up

  1. Make sure MarketCast DataServer 2.11 or higher is installed and functions properly.
  2. Make sure you've specified the path to RealTime API DLL "McApi.dll" correctly (by default the path is installed automatically and indicates a folder where the MarketCast Data Server is installed).
    No additional settings are required.
