ZenFire and Excel

[joe11]

Is there a way to send the ZenFire datafeed that I have for Ninja Trader to Excel spreadsheet for analysis?

TIA,
joe

Hello,

With custom programming you can get it there via this method:

Thanks Ben.

Can this StreamReader method be used for getting real-time data?

Hello,

You can write just about anything you want, but you can't literally route real time data directly to the text file as far as I know. You can copy it and write it to the text file immediately after it comes into the platform. Hope that makes sense.

Ben,

Is it possible to export the values of indicators and trades generated by proprietary strategies (using historical tick data - backtesting not possible in Strategy Analyzer)?

TJ, for the indicator values you would need to check into the code to add lines for StreamWriter or Prints to the output window. For trades generated you can right click in the strategies tab, review the applied strategies performance and export to Excel.
