Description
OwnData 2 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 2 opens eSignal, Interactive Brokers (TWS), Patsystems (J-Trader), TradeStation2000i GlobalServer, CyberTrader, ASCII (plain text), Universal DDE and other data sources to you (read more about supported data feeds). OwnData 2 is developed from the scratch considering the user input, the issues and limitations of the first generation. This project is expanding rapidly, please see the latest news on the progress of OwnData development.

Even if you're content with the data provided by TradeStation Securities, we recommend OwnData 2, as it will allow importing ASCII (plain text) files to native TradeStation data or give you a backup in case of any problems with TradeStation Securities feed. Using OwnData 2 significantly decreases the risks of interrupting the trading system's work and receiving faulty data. The program allows access to completely new trading securities and opens new analysis possibilities. Deep integration with TradeStation 8 provides for effective and user-friendly handling.

OwnData 2 solves a number of principal problems associated with using TradeStation 8:
       • Impossibility to use ASCII data for analysis;
       • Incomplete trading markets coverage. Lack of Canadian, Asian, African, European and other markets;
       • Lack of a backup data vendor if there's interruption of real-time quotes;
       • Plotting charts on the basis of Bid or Ask not supported;
       • Synthetic symbols creation for subsequent use in TradeStation 8 not supported.

Features
• Improved stability, user interface and compatibility with TradeStation 8 (Build 1869), simple installation, automatic switch to the latest TradeStation 8 build.

• Supported data sources: eSignal, Interactive Brokers (TWS), Patsystems (J-Trader), TradeStation2000i GlobalServer, TradeStation Securities, Universal DDE (20 predefined templates), ASCII (plain text). New data sources can be connected on your demand. To receive further information concerning the OwnData 2 API for developers please send us a request.

• A local quote management system for data storage and rapid access to it. All the data is stored in the local database, so you don't need to download it over and over again. Also, OwnData 2 allows you using the received data in offline mode.

• Advanced import of ASCII data into symbols of any data feeds. Automatic recognizing of most known formats, high performance and support for multigigabyte files. TradeStation 8 users are able to combine native and 3d party ASCII data.

• Advanced ASCII mapping. Sometimes importing data to the database is extremely complicated or outright impossible. In such a case ASCII mapping is the solution, especially if one or several ASCII files constantly used are periodically updated. Even if there are just a fed updates per day, re-importing hundreds of symbols is difficult or just not feasible. When mapping, the file path and format is indicated once, and every time a chart is created the program finds the file automatically, converts it into the necessary format based on the preset configuration and displays the data.

• Charts from different data sources can be used in the same Chart Analysis Window.

• Data Sampling. Automatic creation of minutes from ticks, days from minutes, etc.

• A simplified system of queries creation in TradeStation 8. The selection of the desired symbol and data provider is determined by the symbol name and prefix. For instance, a query for 'IB:MSFT:A' will return ask data from Interactive Brokers for MSFT symbol.

Testimonials
I've been testing OwnData 2 for a couple of days and I believe you guys really hit it this time! The integration between GlobalServer and TradeStation 8 works great, unification of 2000i's GS and TS8 is a great argument for those of us who still wouldn't let go our beloved old tick databases while at the same time wish for TS8 technical improvements.

My lack of technical background has always made it hard for me to understand just how this or that new program works. But OwnData 2 makes the work so intuitive that it looks like happening all by itself! I'm trading through Interactive Brokers and I was able to get real-time data from IB to TradeStation 8 in just a few clicks. What else could one wish for!

Thanks for your help and your program, it has been a savior to me, I have been so happy with your product, I recommened OwnData 2 to three of my friends who now use your program, they are just as happy as I am. Thank you!

The new ASCII data import works great. I've amassed a mound of assorted data in txt format, now I can use it all as an additional data source for my back-testing and combine native TradeStation and 3d party ASCII data.
