Version 1885 which we will be releasing (Now has been released), has major performance improvements related to the Trade Activity Log data storage and querying. The following are the improvements and related notes: 1. When updating to 1885 or higher, the TradeActivityLog.data file will be read and new files will be created in the TradeActivityLogs subfolder where there is a separate file for each day. Simulated trading activity also has separate files. 2. The trade activity log is no longer read into memory when Sierra Chart is started. This improves performance. 3. This settings related to how many days to store in the Trade Activity Log in Global Settings >> General Trade Settings are removed. There are no limits any longer. 4. The writing of data to the Trade Activity Log is done on a background thread. This was actually released previously. 5. The querying of data from the trade activity log files is done on a background thread. So the user interface will not be busy when this happens. 6. The sending of order fill and account balance data over the DTC server is done on a background thread. And is sent at a regulated rate. 7. The uploading of order fills, if enabled, is done on a background thread. The use of separate threads improves performance. 8. On the Trade Activity Log window, after changing the controls at the top, for those settings to go into effect you need to press the "Apply" button. 9. The changes to the Trade Activity Log storage and querying drastically improves performance related to that functionality and is the final trading performance improvement that we have made to ensure ultralow latency order routing which is below 40-50 µs (Microseconds). Sierra Chart is also able to handle thousands of orders a second without any problem. Update: Version 1885 has now been released.

One other thing we want to say is that when you update to version 1885, because there is an update of the trade activity log storage, if you then go back to an earlier version you will then be accessing the older trade activity log storage which will not have any newer recorded trade activity. And then when you subsequently update to 1885 or higher, any trade activity recorded since rolling back, will not then be available in the newer version unless you clear all of the files from the TradeActivityLogs subfolder, when Sierra Chart is not running, and restart Sierra Chart to regenerate the new files. Although you will still be missing any data recorded on 1885 or higher which is not in the old TradeActivityLog.data file. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Version 1886 has been released and corrects a problem with the trade list in a chart where it was not properly initialized after a trade activity query and not tracking trade statistics. For example you would not have seen the Daily Profit/Loss on the Trade Window for the chart.

You need to set the activity type at the top left to "Fills" or All Activity.

Regarding what you are showing here how there is no position average price and also there is an indication showing "No fills": https://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=27011 We cannot reproduce that issue so at this point we are not sure about it.

We are still unable to reproduce this. Install version 1886 again with Help >> Download Prerelease in case you have an older revision but this is still not making any sense to us. We are not even sure how that condition can develop.

The problem in regards to post #12 and post #13 is you have an invalid fill record in one of the trade activity log files without a symbol and where the account is set to None. We are seeing how best to filter this out.

We have released version 1887 and that resolves the described issue as well as correcting another low level issue related to the order of the iteration of the trade activity data files during a query.

Hi SC, I'm looking forward to your new faster Trade Activity Log, but quick question, if I am using the Position data and Daily PnL from there, in my algo , in real time to limit my exposure, there would be no problem with the re-implementation of the Trade Activity Log right? Thanks in advance |

No, not at all. Those are instantly calculated as order fills occur and are immediately available to studies.

At the top left select Fills and press the Apply button. You first need to select Trade Activity from the menu at the top.

When Use Commission with P/L Format Ticks (T) the commission is represented as a rounded integer. Would you update the commission to a decimal to be consistent with how Points (P) represents the commission? |

We will see if there is a straightforward way to do this. We did see your other posts in regards to this, but we did not have time to look at it yet.
