                Hello,  I'm looking for the format of the Trade Activity Log file. The one with a .data extension and located at "C:\SierraChart\TradeActivityLogs\". I'm looking for the equivalent of what is given for the SCID files here: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/IntradayDataFileFormat.html#:~:text=Data%20in%20a%20Sierra%20Chart,and%20Importing%20Intraday%20Data%20Files. I'd like to automate trade analysis and exporting a separate file each time has gotten annoying and I'm looking into trying to provide stats during a trade so quick access is important. So I'm hoping I can just read this file. I know I could create a custom study to output this info to a file but if it's already accessible via that file I'd prefer that. Thank you.  |

                pigtwo, did you make any progress on this?  It would be immensely useful. I'd be willing to give it a try via a hex editor.  |

                +1 - would like to know as well, such that I could upload trades and trade activity to a database or spreadsheet in real-time
