Just thought I'd follow up on the eminis as stock in the dtn sat -ts2000i
configuration. On Friday afternoon I deleted the @ESZ3 and @NQZ3 from
futures and added them to the Stock category. On Sunday the data started
coming and looks perfect. Infact I think the GS likes the eminis as stock
better than as futures. Volume updates in realtime just like a stock.
Perhaps the cpu useage runs lower and their is a purring sound from the
cpus that all is well, don't have thermometer on them(duallies) but it just
looks and feels copacetic(sp). Indicators and systems work on the volume.
In the GS History to save you might also want to add the Bid and Ask one
tick, one minute if you are so inclined to analyze with that data. It also
stores and plots the bid and ask. When making a chart be sure to format
the eminis as Trade Volume if that is what you want to see. Tick Volume
also plots as it did before. When coding with trade volume, Volume Down =
downticks and Volume Up = upticks because of the TS4 backward compatibility.
