How to customize the Quik feed

Stocks and bonds can be traded without a transaction tape, but most traders still set up this assistant. The ribbon window displays information regarding the volumes / data of the seller or the buyer / time of execution of the transaction. More experienced traders, studying the tape of transactions, can learn:

• How does an important level breakout occur?
• information on the largest players and volumes;
• market reaction to any events.

In order to set up the feed, you will need to select the “Create window” section on the main Quick panel and click on the “Table of impersonal transactions”.
An editor window for the future deal tape will appear on the screen.
Users can set up multiple stocks and other instruments in one feed. However, the analysis in this case will be extremely inconvenient. Experts advise setting up two windows of the transaction tape: for example, for the shares of Sberbank and Gazprom.
In the window that opens, select the required tool classes. Shares of Sberbank and Gazprom can be found in the section: MB FR:T+:Shares. Traders have different parameters in the columns of the table. Most often used: quantity / operation / cost / time.
Sorting of each column is allowed. It is best to sort by time. In this case, new transactions will move to the upper area of ​​the table.
Transactions can also be filtered by volume.
An equally convenient feature of the program will be the option to color-code buy and sell transactions. Buy trades can be colored in green, and sell trades in red. To do this, select the Operations column and click on the funnel. You need to edit the following conditions:

1. Purchase – green color
2. Sales are red.

Opposite these conditions put a tick “Apply to the entire line”.

Using the tape allows traders to analyze supply and demand. However, for beginners who are just learning to trade, it is better to refuse to set up this assistant at first.

Features of setting up a stock chart

Trading stocks and bonds on the stock exchange without a chart is unacceptable. However, not every user understands how to set up a stock chart in the Quick Sberbank program. So that the setup process does not seem too complicated, it is worth acting according to the following scheme:

1. Right-click in the Current Table of Parameters window to bring up a pop-up menu and click on the categories of Price and Volume Charts.
2. Once the charting window opens, users can change the settings, such as removing the grid from the screen and setting the high/low highlight when clicking on a candle.
3. The Volumes window is removed.
4. Timeframes are set.

The 60-minute and 5-minute traffic windows are configured in the same way.

Note! The recommendations listed can be customized by right-clicking and selecting the Editing category.

How to set up a glass

The most convenient way to set up the order book is the method in which the settings are changed through the current table of parameters. To call the glass of quotes, double-click on the name of the paper with the left mouse button. It is also worth considering that experts recommend making the current settings table for bonds on a separate tab. When trading stocks / futures, it is advisable to use the MOEX and RTS indices, in case of technical analysis. As soon as the trading session is closed, the order book will become empty, but will not disappear. To work with this table, you need to select only working hours. The order book contains 10 buy and sell offers. The number of offers displayed in the window can be adjusted. However, in cases where the trading strategy is not based on the analysis of table data, there is no need to change the visibility parameter. To change the location of data within the table, right-click on any area of ​​the DOM and click on the “Edit” section. In addition to analysis, users can set in the table: simple buy orders / sell orders / loss limiter.

Note! Analysis of the data in the table makes it possible to adequately assess the spread between the best buy offer and the best sell offer. The lower this indicator, the better.

• availability of full access to exchange trading on the stock / derivatives markets (through certified modules);
• online integration with a technical analysis system/archives/databases/expert systems/accounting for client transactions;
• the ability to adapt the interface to your own needs;
• ensuring the protection of personal and financial data with unique cryptographic software (the user does not have to worry about the security of transactions);
• competent, operational information and technical support;
• the presence of a demo version, which makes it possible to test the software, evaluate its advantages and find out the pitfalls;
• the ability to withdraw funds to any payment instrument that is open in Sberbank;
• prompt delivery of exchange information and acceptance of applications from clients.

Even novice traders can use Quick software with minimal knowledge and skills, which is also considered a significant advantage. According to the reviews of experienced traders and experts, the only drawback of the Quick Sberbank program is too high commissions charged for brokerage operations.

Note! The maximum size of transactions that the system accepts is 3 transactions per second.

In order to connect to the Quick trading system, users who have entered into a brokerage service agreement with the bank should take care of downloading the distribution kit of the client terminal, launching the installation file, going through the installation procedure and generating access keys.

Tips

Below you can find the advice of experienced traders regarding the use of the Quick Sberbank program.

1. On one PC, you can run 2 Quick jobs at the same time . To do this, two distributions are installed in different folders. To make it convenient to work with the software, you can create shortcuts on the Desktop and run the info.exe file from different directories.
2. To move the key from the flash drive to the hard drive, you will need to copy the pubring.txk and secring.txk files from the USB flash drive to a folder on the hard drive, for example, to C:\keys. After starting the Quick workplace, you should not enter a secret combination and login. Close the window, go to the Settings menu, click on the Programs section and select the Encryption category. A window will open on the screen, in which you specify the location of the files with the keys pubring.txk and secring.txk. The settings are saved.
3. Spaces and letters of the Russian alphabet are not put in directory names .
4. In cases where the server does not allow two users with the same access keys to work simultaneously, it is necessary to break the first connection and retry the connection after a few seconds . If the error reappears, the trader will need to contact the technical support service. To do this, just call 8 800 100 55 44.

If there is not enough space for objects without which the program cannot fully function, the system may stop starting. And this is quite natural, because Quick saves a huge amount of data every day. The system, overflowing with open tables, charts and order books, is unable to start. To solve this problem, experts advise closing applications that are not currently used by the trader. The Quick program is closed, after which they go to the Quick folder on the PC, which can be found on drive C – the BCS Work folder – the Quik file. After the folder is opened, the user will see how many different files it contains. Files with the log and dat extensions (except for the metastock.dat file, which contains export settings to external technical analysis systems) can be deleted without regret. To clean up these files yourself, you will need to run info.cmd. After that, the Quick Sberbank program is launched. Adhering to these recommendations, even a beginner will cope with the problem.

Note! It should be borne in mind that for the software to work, you will need a computer with Internet access and at least 2 GB of RAM.

The Sberbank QUIK system provides ample opportunities for merchants of any level. Thanks to the efforts of the developers, each user will be able to test the software and get acquainted with the functionality of the system using the demo version. Using this program, you can not worry about security. Personal and financial data will be securely protected. The software works fine, the servers are stable. QUIK Sberbank is suitable not only for beginners, but also for more experienced traders.
