Anyone here using Sierra Chart's datafeed and Bookmap?
With 200 Levels of Market Depth in the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed, at the moment it is the only datafeed competitor to Rithmic.
I've opened a new feature request in order to get the Sierra Chart Data Feed supported by Bookmap
If you are interested in this combo here is the thread https://bookmap.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=220
no quarter
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Hi Vincent, thanks for your question. I've replied to your request and suggested to you a solution. I also commented on 200 price levels. Click here: https://bookmap.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=220
The Bookmap hardware and software requirements are as such:
Windows 10, 8, 7 or Vista
Monitor with minimum 1280×960 resolution
4 Gigabytes RAM (minimum) and 1 GB disk space
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo, 2.0 GHz
Video card of 516 MB memory or more supporting OpenGL 3 or above
If your machine meets the requirements but you still have some issues, then try the following:
Under Settings>>memory Allocation, try bumping the setting. Please read the notes there as well.
Make sure your hard drive has at least 20% free space. This is standard for all app performance.
Consider closing the Correlation Tracker or CVD subpanel and seeing if that improves performance.
Open less symbols for a shorter period of time. For example, I open my Bookmap each morning around 7-8am ET and close Bookmap at the end of the cash session.
Hi, NBBO is not yet available from dxFeed but should be shortly. In the meantime, please reach out to us at [email protected] and we can update you more about it.
Does anyone on the site have experience with the BookMap API? Information can be found here: https://bookmap.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=46. I need a pretty simple add-on that just draws fib lines at the start of the Globex session and the Cash session. And to draw them on the BookMap charts. As new highs and lows are traded on each session the fib lines 'fan' out like shown.
There are several places to view your Profit and Loss in Bookmap:
Click on Settings>> Configuration, then check the box for Show Trade Status Panel.Both P&L and Unrealized P&L are displayed.
Open the Trade Control Panel (Padlock icon). Select Chart or DOM or both in the dropdown. The Info Panel displays Unrealized Profit in the "U:" area and Total P&L in the "T:" area.
In the subchart area (along with CVD), you can also view your dynamic P&L over the trading period. Click on the Settings or Gear icon click on the icon to display P&L.
Under Settings>>Account info, under Open Positions you can access your Unrealized P&L under the UPL heading. Note this section is for Live accounts only and Bookmap Global+ is required. It will not display in Bookmap simulated mode.
