HOW IT WORKS?
The user's guide will help to adjust TradeStation 8 and TradeStation 2000 with free provider FOREX Real-Time
data – Forexite QuoteRoom.
The work principle is shown on the diagramme
Forexite Server - www.forexite.com – Russian broker which provide free FOREX Real-Time data via his program
Forexite QuoteRoom.
QuoteRoom - the free program which can represent itself as a source of real-time and history quotations for
such programs of the technical analysis as Omega Research ProSuite 2000i, TradeStation 2000, MetaStock,
Investor's Dream, EWA (Elliot Wave Analyzer), ElWave, Advanced GET EOD, Andvanced GET for TradeStation
2000 and many other things. Besides, any programs which can receive quotations from DBC Data Manager or
on DDE to the report, can receive quotations and from QuoteRoom.
GlobalServer – program which include in OmegaResearch ProSuite 2000i or TradeStation 2000. GlobalServer is
data server for these programs. Forexite QuoteRoom can transfer data in GlobalServer.
OwnData - is the second generation of unique software that allows you using third party data in TradeStation 8
and thus opens brand new possibilities for your trading. Previously you were limited to the data provided by
TradeStation Securities servers. Now OwnData opens eSignal, Interactive Brokers (TWS), Patsystems (J-Trader),
IQFeed, MarketCast, TradeStation2000i GlobalServer, CyberTrader, Tenfore, Free Quotes, ASCII (plain text),
Universal DDE and other data sources to you (read more about supported data feeds).
Remember, if you want use TradeStation 8 with other data feed (not with Forexite
server) you must right install and setup only TradeStation 8 and OwnData. It is
shown on a picture at the left.
If you want use TradeStation 8 with FREE FOREX real-time data feed (Forexite
server) you must right install and setup following programs:
1. TradeStation 8.2
2. Owndata 2.4
3. Omega Research ProSuite 2000i (it includes TradeStation 2000, GlobalServer)
4. Forexite QuoteRoom
Forexite Server QuoteRoom GlobalServer OwnData TradeStation8

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION
You must have already installed follow programs: TradeStation 8.2 Build 3863, Omega Research ProSuite
2000i SP 5, OwnData 2.5.789.787, Forexite QuoteRoom 2009.01. Also, I check working with Windows XP
Service Pack 3. If you want use other versions of programs or other system (now Windows XP). I don’t know it
will be working or no. I don’t can run free real time for work on Windows Vista. May be with Windows Vista
you will be have problems if you want install FREE data feed (with Forexite). If you want setup TradeStation 8
with eSignal, IB or any other data feed, may be it will be work without problems.
I want give you recommendation use in future program - Acronis True Image, which allow make images of
discs. Easy – I install all programs (Windows, Office, all trading programs, etc) which I use regularly and after
it I create image of my HDD (system disc C). Now, when I want reinstall system and all these programs, I can
make it only for 10 minutes! Very conveniently. I recommend. More info here www.acronis.com
System requirements: I use notebook - Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz, 3 GB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 3650 512 Mb.
I feel very comfortably. Absolutely there are no censures on speed or stability. On old computers to work it is
possible, probably it is not so comfortable.
If you have any problems with setup, you can try fully reinstall QuoteRoom and, may be OwnData. For fully
uninstall make uninstall program, after it check folders in C:\Program Files\ folder (for example, after
uninstall QuoteRoom, also check and delete this folder - C:\Program Files\Forexite QuoteRoom\ or, after
uninstall OwnData – check and delete this folder - C:\Program Files\TS Support\)
QuoteRoom 2009.01 – the strange program, since if settings are made initially incorrectly and, you want
change settings - there can be all ОК, but will work nothing (certainly, I faced this problem).
At me was also such - all has installed, has adjusted, works, but window GlobalServer (thus, it is not
unwrapped on a desktop, and is turned) becomes constant as though active. It very much stirred for work
in other programs. A problem has solved simply - has reinstalled QuoteRoom (having removed the previous
version), has a new started Setup Wizard in GlobalServer, and all began to work perfectly.
And as, I suggest to look video (40 minutes, 60 Mb.) in which on steps-by-step, all is done how it is written
here (everything is shown, since installation of all programs and finishing working capacity demonstration).

to press the right button of the mouse on the name of service and, in the contextual menu to choose

In tab General check Start services after program start and open History tab.
8
In History tab check Trade Record. Bid Record (check default) you can remove because OwnData(or TS8) not
working with Bid Record. Setup starts date for load history from this date. For first setup not choice large period
because need wait loading it; I recommended load all history only when all will be working. Now choose date

Need press this button for each services – Client [Omega Server] and Portal Server. Or, if you will be exit from
QuoteRoom and run program again, services should be started automatically because both services have
setting – Autostart (see previous page). Green arrows opposite to service reflect its activity. After run
QuoteRoom start timer (see screenshot – Left to reconnect GlobalServer – 9 sec).
After run QuoteRoom waiting 10 seconds for start GlobalServer in ONLINE mode. Next, QuoteRoom
automatically open window of GlobalServer and automatically import all history and will be add all FOREX
symbols. Also, history will be automatically imported after start of the program or if last connect with server was
