Syncing Intra-day Quotes from the Internet
You can reach the synchronise intra-day quotes dialog by:
- Clicking on the File menu.
- Then clicking on the Sync menu.
- Then clicking on the Intra-day Quotes menu item.
This dialog lets you instruct Venice to periodically download the current
intra-day quotes from the internet. Once enabled, Venice will periodically poll
an Internet site every few seconds or minutes and download the latest quote
values. Currently intra-day quotes are only used in the Watch Screens.
To enable intra-day quote synchronisation, you'll need to fill in the following
fields:
-
Enabled - Select this to enable intra-day quote synchronisation.
-
Source - Select the Internet site to download the quotes. Currently only
Yahoo Finance is supported.
-
Symbols - Write in a comma or a space separated listed of symbols
that should always be downloaded by Venice. This does not mean that if you don't
list a symbol here it won't be downloaded. All symbols will be downloaded when
they are specified for the first time, this just lets you specify some symbols in advance so that Venice can automatically start downloading the quote's day history.
Since intra-day charting is currently not supported, this field has little
value.
-
Open Time - This is the time that your exchange opens.
-
Close Time - This is the time that your exchange closes.
-
Period - This is the period (in seconds) between quote
synchronisation.
