General-purpose market data interface to trading systems
The General-purpose trading system interface is a means of connecting a structured data flow from the trading system gateway to the QUIK server. It transmits data on the trading process in any trading system (Russian, international, off-exchange) to QUIK users including description of assets and trading firms’ accounts, description of changes in instrument parameters, order queues and information about orders and trades in the trading system.
The trading process is shown in standard tables and windows of client programs (for example, QUIK workstation) where additional instrument classes are displayed.
The interface is used for information only and does not allow forwarding transactions.
The general-purpose interface is C/С++ and Pascal/Delphi-adapted program library (DLL) that contains necessary functions of the QUIK server. It creates on the QUIK server a new data source represented by one or more instruments classes.
Similarly to settings of the classes received from exchange trading systems, the server administrator defines users’ rights of access to information on generated classed.
ARQA Technologies can adapt the General-purpose interface to the available news source upon the request of the broker. The time and cost of work depend on terms of reference.
Transmitted Data
- Determination of classes: description of financial instrument classes, financial instrument parameters, of a list of financial instruments by classes.
- Description of firms’ trading accounts.
- Description of instrument parameter changes: current parameter values, list of all executed trades, best buy and sell quotes.
