1 Nest RTD Help Documentation v1.0 dated 01 Jun 17 Howutrade Software Solutions LLP We Build For You We Code For You Contents Know About Nest RTD Requirements Installation Nest RTD User Interface AmiBroker Setup Disclaimer Know About Nest RTD A reliable and fast data is the first and foremost requirement of Technical Analysis in Stock Trading. If your data is not reliable and fast enough, then it is difficult to success in algo trading/technical analysis as what you get in the back test may be wrong and may result in financial loss when you go trading live. There are many authorized and some other vendors provide data for variety of charting software like AmiBroker, MT4 etc for some cost range from Rs500 - Rs and most of the people forgot one more data vendor who is always with us. The other vendor which people forgot is our trading platform only. Do you know? The live quotes which you get in your trading terminal are faster than any other data vendors. You can check this yourself by taking trial on some vendor and do compare with your trading platform. The only drawback with your trading platform is you will not get any backfill. What backfill mean is, suppose you network was disconnected for say 10mins, for this period you will not have data, this is a very serious issue. But the data vendors will automatically backfill that 10mins with data from their server. How this can be resolved? Yes we can somewhat manage this issue by taking some steps as follows. Run your trading system in Cloud...This will remove any network disconnection and power shutdown problems. So your apps always running in your cloud without any problem even you close your laptop/pc. You can refer this page for how cloud will affect your trading. We can use data table provided by trading platform to backfill any past data for free.

2 How can I feed the live quotes from Market Watch..?Live Quotes cannot be feed directly from trading platform. But most of the trading platform support real time data to excel using RTD. We can use RTD to feed our charting software What is Steps Involved? There are many methods found all over the internet on feeding data from Excel RTD to AmiBroker. But none of them was user friendly and involves complex setup and no long term support. But we truly appreciate the effort put by those people who developed such utilities. So we, who always cares for retail traders especially for beginners, come up with a solution..nest RTD Nest RTD is a simple, robust and reliable tool that can be used to feed live quotes from your trading platform to AmiBroker. It will be the best ever solutions for real-time feeding from Terminal. How much Cost.? Nest RTD is free and you can use it as long as you wish and will always free. But make sure that you are using it for your personal use only not for any commercial use. How it works.? Nest RTD is receiving data from trading platform through RTD (Real Time Data Server) and received data is parsed and further sent to charting Platform. Trading Platform NEST RTD AmiBroker How much reliable? Instead of we tell us, you can use it yourself to check and if you think that it will fit for you then you can use it. Nest RTD is mainly developed for beginners who can test trading system and all, before investing real money. Of course you can use this for real time trading also. Charting Platform Supported? Currently supports AmiBroker only. We plan to add more charting software in future. Can I Use it For Live Trading? We recommend you to use Nest RTD for testing purpose only and for real Trading we recommend you to subscribe data from authorized data vendors. In Certain case, Nest RTD will be better, Example:- Your trading system is based on price action and only requires intraday data. You trading system require high speed quotes for spread orders. Your trading system places limit order at best bid/ask to reduce slippage Your trading system needs tick data etc Note:- In our terminal, for volatility stocks normally we receive ticks/prices in 1sec.We refer that as Tick Data from retail traders perspective and most of the data vendor provide only 1sec snapshot means you will get max of 1tick/price in 1sec.Hence Nest RTD will give best result for price action strategies. Do not confuse this with the tick data that broadcasted from exchange. Exchange tick data has millions of ticks that cannot be utilized without high end server and heavy cost.

3 Trading Platform Supported.? We developed for Zerodha Pi, NSE Now & Omnesys Nest Trader. But if your trading platform supports RTD, please tell us at we will make one for your platform also.

Cons:- No automatic backfill (Of course run it on cloud to solve this) What are the modes supported? Nest RTD supports two modes i.e. DDE and COM. Both have advantage and disadvantage. But if you are beginner, then better use COM mode.

8 Plug-in Status changes From Yellow to Green Color in Bottom Right corner. If it is still yellow, Try reconnecting. Still yellow then Check all steps gain. In DDE Mode, by default AmiBroker will request quotes only for those symbols for which chart are open.
