None of these products will impact the speed of a system to a great
degree and it will all depend on how the systems are coded.
We constantlyl use HASHUMS storing and retrieving 100's of variables
from Systems running on the maximum amount of data that
Tradestation can handle.. Therere is not a great speed loss.
The TradeLab solution will not provide a significant
advantage over the HASHNUMS and GLOBAL VARIABLES PRO.
Indeed it may be much slower and more expensive. HASHNUMS
interfaces to Visual C++, Visual Basic, Excel etc and allows data
to be passed between the 2. HASHNUMS provides many more
features in a Global variable product than Tradelabs Global Variables
thing..

Welcome to every TS programmers nightmare. I have used the HashNums program
but be warned passing values back and forth between TS and HashNums slows
things down considerably especially in long RT charts. You still might find
it practical if you plan to pass values back and forth once or twice i.e.
with one IncludeSystem Statement but after that Good Luck. There might be
an interesting solution at Scientific Approaches Tradelab. Their Global
Variables program interfaces with Visual Basic. So you could pass the raw
data to their Global Variables program, a Visual Basic program could process
the data and pass it back to the Global Variables from where the TS system
could import the results. My thoughts are that this could be reasonably
fast. I have not used the SciApps TradeLab Modules but I'm looking hard at
it right now. There WebSite is http://sciapp.com/index.html
Can anybody out their add their two cents worth?
