Hi there I'd like to raise an idea which may cause Siera Charts platform to provide capability that currently id doesn't provide i'm developing an algo based trading machine (software) after "debugging" the trading machine using the current Sierra charts platform i will look preformance efficieny it means that i'll start looking for a software machine that will execute the alreay developed study but will not suffer from the overhead presented by the graphical mechanisms of the platform Thus, i'm asking for a thin Sierra platform that is fully compatible w/ the available one but has no graphics engine such platform is expected to provide few simple minimal interfaces like: 1- communication w/ broker 2- simple CLI 3- configuration (i.e. .ini) file 4- capabilty to run the already developed study (the DLL) I'll be glad to hear yr opinion about this idea/requirement Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-04-08 19:17:35

What you want is already supported. It is just a matter of disabling the graphics within Sierra Chart. Disabling Sierra Chart User Interface to Eliminate Graphics Load Doing the following will eliminate virtually all of the graphics related CPU load from Sierra Chart: Enable the following option for each chart currently open: Window >> Hide Window. This completely disables the graphics of a chart. Uncheck each Control Bar through Window >> Control Bars>> Control Bar #. This completely disables Control Bars. Make sure the following Windows are not open: - Window >> Message Log (If there is a large amount of messages frequently being added to the Message Log then we can make available the functionality which currently exists to disable that) -Trade >> Trade Activity Log (Set the controls at the top so that no order activity is being displayed. For example choose [Sim]All Symbols to display only simulated trading if there is only live trading occurring.) -Trade >> Trade Service Log -Trade >> Trade Orders and Positions Doing the above will prevent any graphics output which greatly reduces CPU usage. We will formally add the above to our documentation. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

Great!! Just what the doctor ordered! Hiding all Windows and controls brought CPU utilization down to 0-5%! Super! This definitely deserves a separate topic under "Automated Trading management"! Btw: What's the functionality of "Hide All Trade Windows"? What are "Trade Windows"? |
