How to add your 2 sets of credentials (esignal and datafeed) into AIQ TradingExpert Pro
When you sign up for your eSignal/IDC data service, you receive 2 different sets of credentials to put in the AIQ TradingExpert Pro. The first set (eSignal) is for streaming realtime/delayed data and is available right after you activate your eSignal/IDC data service. The second set (DataFeed) follows 3-5 days later and allows you to download end of day data to update your locally stored ticker data. This is also covered in steps 3 and 5 above.
- Before you begin installing we recommend you close all open applications including programs such as Skype and firewall/security programs that may interfere or block the install.
- Locate the install file TEP95.exe, it will be in your downloads folder, or you can search for the file name.
- Right click on the file name, and select 'Run as Administrator'
- If prompted 'Do you want the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer' click Yes
- The installation process includes all the TradingExpert Pro 9.5 files required and includes 2 Microsoft Visual Studio components. The install will begin once the file has unpacked.
