In order to feed an Excel file with real time data from MultiCharts you should use an RTD Server on this PC. Please see the instructions below:
- Download the RTD Server installer corresponding to your version of MultiCharts:
- Close MultiCharts and all its applications. Run Task Manager and make sure that all MC processes are shut down.Note: The list of processes your MultiCharts is currently running can be extended depending on the data feed and broker you are currently using.
- Run RTD Server.exe that you downloaded.
- Run MultiCharts and create a chart with streaming real time data.
- Make a right click on the chart or hit F7 and select the indicator called Symbol Data. Apply it on a chart.
- Open up the Excel file, select Add-Ins Toolbar, then select MultiCharts:InsertSymbolData from the custom Toolbars section.
- Choose required data from a pop-up window and click OK.
Now real-time data should be streaming into the excel file.
