Using the Tick Data Suite with Tickstory

[tcferreira]

Hello tickstory.

I need to know how to use the TDS along with tickstory? Can I use historical data downloaded by Tickstory in TDS?

Hi tcferreira,

To use TDS, just install the product in the usual manner. When you launch from Tickstory, it will automatically detect the presence of the tds.exe file and run it if it is there.
The data exported from Tickstory is compatible with TDS, however only fixed spread exports are available from Tickstory for the moment. There is an item to add support for variable spreads in the future.

Regards.

Hi may I know the progress of using supporting variable spread using TDS?

It will be a massive help when backtesting strategies that trade 24 hours!

Hi Iwillsurvive - no more progress since yesterday when you last asked

Suffice to say that we have a number of enhancements that are planned ahead of this at the moment.

We'll keep your original thread updated as any news comes about:
