General Trading Information

Rates Change Colors

If a rate changes color to green, it means the rate in that cell just updated and is higher than the previous one. If a rate changes color to red, it means the rate in that cell just updated and is lower than the previous one.

Change column reset

GENERAL PROBLEMS

### shows only

When there is not enough space for Streamster to show certain value in a cell, # symbols are shown instead. The application does that so if a part of a number is missing you do not see a wrong number. Simply place your mouse on the border of the column heading where the # symbols appear, then click and drag until you see all of the data.

Position profit missing

If you unsubscribe from an instrument price, Streamster will not be able to calculate real-time, indicative profit on positions you have in [Positions] window on that instrument. Streamster will sometimes also need correlated price subscriptions (e.g. EUR/JPY position will need current USD/JPY rate to calculate your current profit in USD currency). To resolve this, you just need to subscribe to receive prices by clicking the Subscriptionsbutton in a price window, click on Searchbutton and then double-click the instruments needed. NOTE: When you close a position, your profit will always be calculated correctly, no matter if the real-time, indicative profit is shown or not.
