Synchronise Windows local time with the MT5 server

prostotrader 2017.02.04 09:46 #161

Seryozh!

I don't like either my version (syncronisation on the first deal) or your version,

because it's "around the clock" and adjusts the time almostall the time,

whereas the time only needs to be adjusted before the start and at the end of sessions.

Need to think about making a hybrid of our versions.

Take a look and tell me what you think

Before the end of the morning session the time was synchronised, but at 14-01 -- 14-04 it was not :(

Apparently, this is due to the fact that the applications were only taken down.

But there is still synchronisation :)

Developers now have the option of adding time to glasses "in small blood

From the Spectra 5.3 release

4. technological changes.

Separation of the trading and clearing component

Modernization of the core and risk module of the TCS, aimed at stabilizing the system.

Change in the implementation of the transaction flow limiter on the TCSSPECTRAcore

In version 5.3, the gateway transaction flow limiters from clients have been replaced by a single point. In previous versions, a per-gateway restrictor was used.

Fixing transaction logging times with nanosecond accuracy

A new moment_ns field has been added for the flow tables broadcasting transactions and requests.

URRRAAAAAAAAAAA!

Added

Spectra 5.3 will go live on the exchange on 27 february 2017.

Added

struct MqlBookInfo
  {
   ENUM_BOOK_TYPE   type;       // тип заявки из перечисления ENUM_BOOK_TYPE
   double           price;      // цена
   long             volume;     // объем
   ulong            moment_ns;  //ООООООООО-ЧЕНЬ ЖДЁМ
  };

And also for sentiment (as far as I understand the info on OI, warrants etc is called that). Millisecond would be enough there. And in general, the more accurate the better, but would like one accuracy for all possible information.

And will the ULONG non-seconds fit in?

It will fit and there will still be some left over. But then again, if you take that kind of accuracy, you need to have that accuracy for all the information provided. It would, of course, be unrealistically cool, but at least let them add time in milliseconds everywhere.
