A local quote management system for data storage and rapid access to it.
All the data is stored in the local database (QuoteManager), so you don't need to download it over and over again.
Also, OwnData 2.5 allows you using the received data in offline mode.
Ability to view and edit data that is stored in the QuoteManager. It helps quickly find and correct the bad ticks as well as add or delete
new data.
QuoteManager can work in the online mode. In the online mode the unlimited number of symbols can be connected to a data feed
and the received quotes are stored in the database. Thus, there is no necessity to create a chart to receive quotes, now it is possible
to do it in QuoteManager.
Advanced import of ASCII data into symbols of any data feeds. Automatic recognizing of most known formats, high performance and support for
multigigabyte files. TradeStation 8 users are able to combine native and 3d party ASCII data.
Advanced ASCII mapping. Sometimes importing data to the database is extremely complicated or outright impossible. In such a case ASCII
mapping is the solution, especially if one or several ASCII files constantly used are periodically updated. Even if there are just a few updates
per day, re-importing hundreds of symbols is difficult or just not feasible. When mapping, the file path and format is indicated once, and every
time a chart is created the program finds the file automatically, converts it into the necessary format based on the preset configuration and displays
the data.
Charts from different data sources can be used in the same Chart Analysis Window.
Data Sampling. Automatic creation of minutes from ticks, days from minutes, etc.
A simplified system of queries creation in TradeStation 8. The selection of the desired symbol and data provider is determined by the symbol
name and prefix. For instance, a query for 'IB:MSFT:A' will return ask data from Interactive Brokers for MSFT symbol.
