HOW MUCH COMPUTER MEMORY OR INTERNET BANDWIDTH DOES ACCUSTRENGTH USE ?
Not much. The software is tiny since we use WCF along with the very latest in MS Framework for our architecture and client applications. The client application does not compute data, it simply displays it. The memory intensive tasks are performed on a special high performance computer dedicated to the task of computing strengths. The result is sent to the desktop app freeing up enormous amounts of bandwidth and processor loads. You can even operate this essential tool with a dialup connection!
A huge feature of AccuStrength is its ability to retrieve data you missed when you stopped trading or turned off the computer. There is no need to keep the program running all the time. AccuStrength gets the data you missed when away when it starts. It contains up to a weeks worth of detailed history as well.
HOW DO UPDATES OR UPGRADES WORK?
Every time you start AccuStrength, it checks with our central server to see if there is an update. This happens quickly and the user hardly notices. Using the clever tactics of great design, should the program find a new update, it automatically installs for the user. We have taken all the effort out of updating. There isn't any effort required by the user.
No MT4 or DDE's..No third party suppliers or subscriptions. How are the strengths calculated?
Free or broker supplied DDE have widely varying and outlandishly biased price feeds. That's why they can give away demos and free DDE feeds. Since strength data varied with the dozens of suppliers who, lets face it, paid the bill for these free feeds, we had to produce our own infrastructure and feed our own products unbiased data.
AccuStrength uses fifteen separate and proprietary software programs to observe several price feeds. Then, it compares the interactions among forty two pairs. ( This is no small or inexpensive task. )The unique formula used is compiled and sent out to the program sitting on your desktop. Tadaaa. Unbiased strength numbers.
DDE is a very slow, insecure and ancient way of transferring data over the internet.
