MTG Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Hi Jerry, I have a portfolio with 350 stocks in it. Takes just over 1 minute to update all data (with Etrade.au as the data source). Is that considered normal or slow? My connection is pretty good. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Etrade AU is configured for up to 3 requests per 4 sec period, up to 7 symbols per request, so a minute is about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTG Posted June 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Thanks. Would there be any way I could speed this up? Regards, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 The only way to significantly speed this up would be to use a streaming data feed. The only one that I think supports AU is Interactive Brokers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTG Posted June 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 Thanks mate. I think IB is a bit restrictive on the number of stocks one can stream, from what I've heard. Will get by with Etrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
