Fidessa DQ Plug-in - Technical Reference

Introduction

The FIDESSA Knowledge Module allows for monitoring of FIDESSA Trading Systems. It comprises two Plug-ins FIDESSA and FIDESSA-DQ.

GENEOS FIDESSA-DQ (Database Query) Plug-in monitors the data in FIDESSA's real-time database.

It is intended for monitoring failed trades in the FTS module, but could easily be used for any other real-time database query based monitoring.

The current GENEOS TRADEWATCH version can only handle one instance of FIDESSA-DQ plug-in per Netprobe.

Other fields depend on the actual query and the setting of the displayFields.

The real-time database query, as defined in dbScript, may return a large number of rows and columns. The keyField, keywords and displayFieldsparameters are used to customise the display to User preference.
