ARQA Technologies released a new version of principal user application QUIK Workstation — 8.0

The main change in the released version relates to conversion of the QUIK Workstation to 64-bit architecture. This allows neutralizing a considerable number of restrictions which appeared when processing large amounts of data.

The new version of the QUIK Workstation supports requirements of Bank of Russia Ordinance № 4928-U which entered into force on July 1, 2019. As part of the improvement a new position keeping scheme ‘MD+’ was added. When the scheme is used, client’s margin indicators ‘RCV1’ and ‘RCV2’ are calculated for client portfolios. When checking purchasing power of client’s order, the adjusted ‘RCV1’ value is checked for its avalidity. The corresponding parameters were added to the ‘Client portfolio’ terminal table.

For the Moscow Exchange Derivatives Market the algorithm to place minimum/maximum possible price was changed in entry forms of stop orders with expiration dates when choosing market price for their execution. This ensures that the price gets into the actual price range of the instrument when rolling over the stop order to the next day.

For better ergonomics the dark theme of the interface is now performed in higher contrast.

Besides that, to optimize the interface, all plug-in tables available from the ‘Plugins’ menu were added to a general table list in the ‘Create window’ dialog box (F7 key).
