To Set up LMAX data feed connection:
- In the QuoteManager main menu select Tools and then click Data Sources.
- Select LMAX in the list of all supported data vendors and click the Settings button.
- In the opened up window:
- Select type of connection: demo / real.
According to your type of connection URL is set up automatically. - Enter Login and Password.
- Select type of connection: demo / real.
- Cache downloaded quote files - this option enables storing the downloaded data on your hard drive. When this feature is enabled - upon reloading data on a chart it will be loaded from the cached files, instead of the data provider historical data servers.
- Use heartbeats for connection loss detection - heartbeats are utilized for detecting connection loss and reconnecting. If heartbeats are not being received from the server - reconnect is done.
- Build trade ticks from ask ticks and bid ticks - when this option is enabled, quote field "Trade" includes both Bid and Ask prices which makes the Volume Profile feature usable for Forex symbols. Trade field records a new tick even if only the Ask price/volume has changed and does not wait for the Bid to change either price or volume. When the option is disabled - Quote Field "Trade" plots "Bid" data.
