Example DDE-Links

   

To be able to establish a real-time feed your data-provider must have a DDE-link.

If you don't see an example DDE-link for your provider or if you know of a DDE-link of a provider which works with ELWAVE (either directly or using Excel) but is not listed above please contact us at: info@elwave.com

4. Omega Server           :: top ::
 
 

In order to establish a real-time feed with e.g. Tradestation, which uses Omega server, you have to run Excel as well.

  1. Set up an Excel workbook with the following string in one cell (e.g. c5): =(OMEGA_SERVER|LIVEQUOTE!'IBM,PC')
  2. Save the workbook with file name as desired, e.g. IBM.xls
  3. While the Excel workbook is open, run ELWAVE, select Real-time datafeed from the Scenario menu and fill out the real-time dialog box as follows:
    DDE Server: EXCEL
    Ticker (Topic): IBM.xls
    Close (item): r5c3 (r5 refers to Row 5 and c3 refers to column 3 (=column C))

    Note: This link is only for Tradestation 4-users. TS2000i users can import the historical intraday data from the Globalserver and connect the realtime datafeed directly to ELWAVE
 
5. Quote.com           :: top ::
 
 

In order to establish a real-time feed with Quote.com, which uses Qlink, you need to use our new UDS (Universal Data Server):

  1. Star Qlink in the Quote.com folder
  2. Select Real-time datafeed from the Scenario menu and fill out the real-time dialog box as follows:
    DDE Server: UDSDDE
    Ticker (Topic): QLINK
    Close (item): IBM
    The item is the symbol as you would select it in Qcharts.
 
6. Reuters           :: top ::

8. ESignal          :: top ::

Close (item): IBM

This is an example for the IBM Stock. Simply replace IBM for any other symbol.

 
9. Tenfore:          :: top ::
 
 
Select Real-time datafeed from the Scenario menu:
DDE Server: Montage
Ticker (Topic): Datafeed

Eurobench Internet

Select Real-time datafeed from the Scenario menu:
DDE Server: ebrt32
Ticker (Topic): q
Close (item): 12272.lastprice

Dit is een voorbeeld voor de AEX. Voor de juiste ticker kunt u het beste een DDE-link maken naar Excel. Vanuit Excel kunt u dan op de cell met de laatste quote de dde-formule zien:
=ddeserver|ticker!'close'

 
12. Satquote/Quotespeed             :: top ::
 
 
Select Real-time datafeed from the Scenario menu:
DDE Server: SAT
Ticker (Topic): Realtime
Close (item): Symbol Code (e.g. AAP.N 1)

Note: Make sure you have activated the DDE-server. If you do not know how to do this, contact your local Tenfore or Satquote representative. Under your Satquote Help-menu you can also find information on DDE-Servers.
Under Close, you need to fill out the name of the symbol you want to connect, followed by a space and the code. The code stands for the specific information you want to request for this symbol. In ELWAVE that is usually the 'Lastquote'.
