Post From: Alerts an Scanning Best Practises

Firstly I read the documentation and tried to understand other's behavior by reading the support board regarding alerts and scanning. I watch 60 pairs (liquid selections of LMAX FX symbols and Bitmex Crypto symbols). I currently use a single chartbook for all. This chartbook has 9 charts for the same pair with different time frames. (monthly, weekly, daily, 4hourly, hourly, 15M, 5M, and 1M). I have study alerts for these charts (daily, 4hourly, hourly, 15M, 5M, and 1M) As I get alerts from 1M charts I need my scan interval to be at least 1 minute apparently. Now When I study I concluded that I can use 4 approaches: Scanning Considerations: 1. Remote computer option a. Single chart: each minute continuous scan should run at the remote computer. b. All charts are open: chartbooks should be created for each symbol. Alert messages should be taken from the remote computer to a trading computer. 2. Single computer option: a. Singlechart: continuous scan is consuming too much system resources. This is not a viable option for me. My second monitor (connected via USB) is also thrown from the memory so It should be fixed. b. All charts are open at the trading computer: alert message options should be tested with chart update interval option. I'm wondering what would be your suggestion? I'm considering of running a remote computer and getting its alert manager logs to my trading computer. How can I do that? While I'm researching my options I see an option under General Settings, Alerts/General 3 which is Enable remote alerts. When reading the documentation I could not find any explanation about it.https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/GeneralSettings.html#Tab_General3 Does it help me to achieve what I need to achieve? Thanks. Ilim |
