Transact Data

Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

I´m interested in Transact data, anyone use Transact data feed in Tradestation+Owndata?

 

thank you in advance

Mikeshwarz

 

Hi Mike,

 

I use the Infinity AT platform which uses the Transact data (free), and I use MarketDelta charts. Not sure if you trade live or not, but Infinity offers free 30 day demo. Sign up here thru my broker Tom Duffy and receive a special commission rate: Infinity Futures

Thank you for yours answers, but I prefer use Tradestation because I have some indicators and strategies who not function well with Multicharts. My problem is setup Transact in Owndata, is a require field to put the "server name" and I don´t know what is. Can someone help me?

 

Thank you

Hi trader273,

 

I try with TAMS, but Owndata seems that want to connect and minutes later said "Timout Do you want to retry?" This is weird because in Multicharts perfectly works.

If someone use this can help me with the correct setup?... Please

 

Thank you

Hi TLA,

 

Sorry you had a problem with the platform. What exactly was the issue with the datafeed and what time were you trying to "trade" on Sunday?

 

Were you using a demo or trading live?

 

I personally have over a hundred customers trading daily on AT with no problems, and our firm has many times that. Before you flame the platform why don't you ask for help? Maybe we can fix the problem for you.

 

Best regards,

I was using Transact Infinity AT. This datafeed was a disaster. Good luck if want to trade on Sunday.

 

TLA,

 

Your comments on this forum lead me to believe that you don't good data from bad data. And why in the world would you want to trade on Sunday. Trading on Sunday is for suckers.

 

Regards,

TraderJean,

 

Your remark seems to be missing a word or two. The data from Infinity was missing a few ticks or two. I suppose that's not important to you. Different strokes for different folks.

I prefer charts and sentences with complete data. I make decisions based on data. My experience has shown that Infinity was flawed in this area. I could go into further detail here, but I feel that in a forum where people can freely express their satisfaction or dissatisfaction with a service - I believe a "thumbs down" is all that is necessary. Perhaps they will improve in this area. For their customers' sake, I hope they do.

TLA,

 

Again I would like to say I'm sorry you had a bad experience with the demo and if I knew the details of your situation I would try to help. I did PM you for details of your problem but you did not respond.

 

The demo might have been down on Sunday I don't know. I know the live platform was up because I have live customers who traded Sunday. I've been with Infinity for 4 years and have never seen a live platform outage of that type. The demo does not have the same degree of infrastructure commitment the live platform does. The AT simulator is meant to mimic the live platform not exactly duplicate it.

 

Reading a couple of the other posts on this thread I would just like to say this. I have never been critical of any other firm, data vendor or broker. I try to let the Infinity AT product and my support & service speak for itself. There are a few live traders on this forum who have expressed positive views of Infinity AT. They should also be free to express their opinions without ridicule.

 

TLA you are fairly recent to this forum and you don't know me very well, so I'll let most of what you say go without comment other than to say that there were no complaints filed at the NFA or any other regulatory agency about the alleged complaint and any assertion to the contrary is without merit. You can see for yourself at National Futures Association - NFA is a regulatory service provider for the derivatives markets

 

 

Now I also know that message boards and forums are places where people are free to express their opinions and even rant a little if they want. So keep it up! I enjoy reading your posts and learning from you all.

 

 

My purpose here is to assist anyone who needs help with the Infinity AT platform. If you need help let me know and I will try my best to help. I think most here know I mean that sincerely.

 

 

 

Tom

TLA,

 

Funny post, yea i skipped a word. Glad you were able to fill in the blank.

 

I would rather play nice than bitch back and forth with you. I really don't see the flaw in the AT data maybe because I'm on the live platform instead of the demo and I use DTN for backfill or maybe using MarketDelta charts instead of Sierra makes a difference. I don't really know.

 

You gave your 2 cents and I gave mine. Lets move on. :)

 

Best regards,

 

TraderJean

    • Be careful who you blame.   I can tell you one thing for sure.   Effective traders don’t blame others when things start to go wrong.   You can hang onto your tendency to play the victim, or the martyr… but if you want to achieve in trading, you have to be prepared to take responsibility.   People assign reasons to outcomes, whether based on internal or external factors.   When traders face losses, it's common for them to blame bad luck, poor advice, or other external factors, rather than reflecting on their own personal attributes like arrogance, fear, or greed.   This is a challenging lesson to grasp in your trading journey, but one that holds immense value.   This is called attribution theory. Taking responsibility for your actions is the key to improving your trading skills. Pause and ask yourself - What role did I play in my financial decisions?   After all, you were the one who listened to that source, and decided to act on that trade based on the rumour. Attributing results solely to external circumstances is what is known as having an ‘external locus of control’.   It's a concept coined by psychologist Julian Rotter in 1954. A trader with an external locus of control might say, "I made a profit because the markets are currently favourable."   Instead, strive to develop an "internal locus of control" and take ownership of your actions.   Assume that all trading results are within your realm of responsibility and actively seek ways to improve your own behaviour.   This is the fastest route to enhancing your trading abilities. A trader with an internal locus of control might proudly state, "My equity curve is rising because I am a disciplined trader who faithfully follows my trading plan."

    • SELF IMPROVEMENT.   The whole self-help industry began when Dale Carnegie published How to Win Friends and Influence People in 1936. Then came other classics like Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, Awaken the Giant Within by Tony Robbins toward the end of the century.   Today, teaching people how to improve themselves is a business. A pure ruthless business where some people sell utter bullshit.   There are broke Instagrammers and YouTubers with literally no solid background teaching men how to be attractive to women, how to begin a start-up, how to become successful — most of these guys speaking nothing more than hollow motivational words and cliche stuff. They waste your time. Some of these people who present themselves as hugely successful also give talks and write books.   There are so many books on financial advice, self-improvement, love, etc and some people actually try to read them. They are a waste of time, mostly.   When you start reading a dozen books on finance you realize that they all say the same stuff.   You are not going to live forever in the learning phase. Don't procrastinate by reading bull-shit or the same good knowledge in 10 books. What we ought to do is choose wisely.   Yes. A good book can change your life, given you do what it asks you to do.   All the books I have named up to now are worthy of reading. Tim Ferriss, Simon Sinek, Robert Greene — these guys are worthy of reading. These guys teach what others don't. Their books are unique and actually, come from relevant and successful people.   When Richard Branson writes a book about entrepreneurship, go read it. Every line in that book is said by one of the greatest entrepreneurs of our time.   When a Chinese millionaire( he claims to be) Youtuber who releases a video titled “Why reading books keeps you broke” and a year later another one “My recommendation of books for grand success” you should be wise to tell him to jump from Victoria Falls.   These self-improvement gurus sell you delusions.   They say they have those little tricks that only they know that if you use, everything in your life will be perfect. Those little tricks. We are just “making of a to-do-list before sleeping” away from becoming the next Bill Gates.   There are no little tricks.   There is no success-mantra.   Self-improvement is a trap for 99% of the people. You can't do that unless you are very, very strong.   If you are looking for easy ways, you will only keep wasting your time forgetting that your time on this planet is limited, as alive humans that is.   Also, I feel that people who claim to read like a book a day or promote it are idiots. You retain nothing. When you do read a good book, you read slow, sometimes a whole paragraph, again and again, dwelling on it, trying to internalize its knowledge. You try to understand. You think. It takes time.   It's better to read a good book 10 times than 1000 stupid ones.   So be choosy. Read from the guys who actually know something, not some wannabe ‘influencers’.   Edit: Think And Grow Rich was written as a result of a project assigned to Napoleon Hill by Andrew Carnegie(the 2nd richest man in recent history). He was asked to study the most successful people on the planet and document which characteristics made them great. He did extensive work in studying hundreds of the most successful people of that time. The result was that little book.   Nowadays some people just study Instagram algorithms and think of themselves as a Dale Carnegie or Anthony Robbins.
