Backup Feed¶
New in Benchmark 1.2.1, the TrueFX-Beantrader server provides the same market data provided by the TrueFX server. It provides a backup feed for use when the main server is unavailable (e.g. during weekend maintenance).
Note
The backup feed will not automatically be used if the main server is offline, it must be explicitly configured in the Preferences (or Options) dialog box.
To switch to the backup feed¶
- From the main menu bar
- Mac users: select Preferences from the Benchmark menu
- Windows/Linux users: select Options from the Feed menu
- Locate the Server combobox or drop down
- to use the backup feed select TrueFX-Beantrader, or
- to use the main feed select TrueFX.
- Select OK to apply the changes.
