Dear Dear Team, I understand the strategy behind your standpoint not developing a Global Cursor between Instances, but I would like to argue ab important point for you to consider: I have been using 2 instances on Sierra for the very simple reason that they run faster. I had to and here's why: In fact I have been using the Denali data feed for as long as you have been providing it, because it is so much faster than Rithmic, while still providing Depth data. But even so, my large Chartbook, having many charts to update, was too slow during times of increased volatility (nothing as problematic as with my old Rithmic feed, but still half a second or so compared to my independent Broker App and its data feed). This all changed when I separated some of my charts in my Chartbook to another instance. Ever since this change, my potential lag during increased volatility became absolutely acceptable and I never looked back. Sierrachart does an excellent job in handling so many of my charts and TPOs and DOMs at the same time. This is really an impressive price of software. And here you see comes the one disadvantage of having two instances: Global Cursor. A very common tool, used by every trader. But when I float around on my DOM I keep always wondering where I am on my TPO. That is why I am certain that this would be welcomed by many and we would so much appreciate if you gave it a consideration some time in the future. Thank you. |
