I am making the switch from BMI to DTN satellite shortly and I have a few
questions for someone already using ProSuite with DTN. This is old stuff,
but I want to be clear on what can and cannot be done at the present.
Individual symbols for this data has been promised sometime but for now...
1. As I understand it, DTN broadcasts composite issue and volume symbols.
For example, @vsn consists of advvolume,declvolume,unchangedvolume,total
volume for the nya index. Is that correct?
2. Does the Global Server store that @VSN symbol's data in that format. Or
does it behave like TS4 and only show the updated values in a quote monitor?
3. Is it possible to configure a History Template to store the @VSN
information if the answer to #2 is that PS behaves like TS4 and won't store
statistic symbolswith default settings?
4. Can a user defined symbol be created in the GS to store parts of the DTN
@VSN symbol, such as is done in Ensign? Say to store the adv volume in a
separate symbol you define it as nva=@xxx(high) or @vsn(open), need to know
the exact format of the @vsn smbol to get this correct.
5. Can a spread be used to define a custom symbol using the high or low of
the @vsn symbol and a constant such as *1 rather than a second data field?
Thanks,
BobR
