Common settings #

The setup of the client terminal is made in the “Tools — Options…” menu and include setting the following parameters:

• connection to the server (Server tab)
• coverage of client positions (Coverage tab)
• dealer operations (Dealer tab)
• automatic processing of requests (Automation tab)
• signaling about system events (Events tab)

It is necessary to give the trade server address, login, and password in the “Server” tab. The “Delete account” button allows deleting manager login from the saved logins list. After the connection to the server has been established, the “Change password” button allows you to change the current password. If advanced security applies to the group of the manager being connected, it is necessary to describe the path to RSA keys, as well. To provide additional security, keys can be located on a portable data medium, for example, on a flash-memory card.

The following additional parameters of connection can be set in the “Server” tab:

• Save account information — save login, password, and internal emails between connections to the server;
• Hide online users — hide online users;
• Save week ticks — if you enable this option, the manager terminal will collect tick data by symbols weekly in the ticks.raw file. At the end of a week, the data from it will be written to a file of weekly ticks YYYY.MM.DD.ticks, and the file will be cleaned to collect information for the next week. If the option is disabled, only the last 2000 ticks will be stored, weekly data won’t be saved.
