Re: NOW memory usage

This is because there's data streamed into your trading terminal all throughout the day. Even if you haven't used charts, there'll be scrips on your market watch. You could also be viewing a few indices in the Index box. You may invoke the Admin Positions or Order Book, all of which again is data streaming.

It's ideal to have high RAM on your computer, maybe at least 2GB although I'd prefer if you have 4GB. Or you can close NOW every time it becomes sluggish and relogin. This usually speeds it up.

The response does not sound right. Data streaming to the market watch should not use up *any* additional memory; nor should watching indices. Unless, of course, all the symbol data is being cached -- and why should it be cached?

I can understand that the Order Book / Trades would use up some. Logs would use up some more; but clearing them does not help. So, as windows are opened and closed, perhaps 50 MB should be the outside estimate for the whole day. We are talking about 50 MB per hour.

Would appreciate a more insightful answer.

Edit: Checked the Odin Diet usage today. It started with 100 MB and by end-of-day had not crossed 130 MB. Same market watch portfolio + about two charts open.

For all you guys having problems with the Nest Plus update of 1.7.1.0....


For ZT (97.7) - the upgrade version of Nest Plus is 1.7.1.0 To make sure that your computer has the latest version of Nest Plus, you have to download this package and replace it in C:\Program Files\Omnesys\NEST3
Please note that ZT could be installed anywhere in your computer and you have to replace the files in that folder.

Did you inform in advance ?

After Nest update, volume of the last candle is drawn incorrectly (very large).
Data in table is ok

This is fixed in new version.

@zerodha,

Gone through some of the user reviews in this thread, am now somewhat interested in opening an account with you. I am already having a trading+demat account with some other broker right now. My queries are -

1. 'Do/should I have to open a seperate demat account with u also along with the trading account or my existing one will do? What are the pros/cons in this?
2. Do you have any local office support in Delhi?
3. Are you offering some discount for opening a new account with you for traderji members?

Thanks.

We hope our answers light you up, Candle.
1. It's best if you open a demat account with us because it facilitates easy buying and selling for equity delivery trades. If you map an external DP with Zerodha, you can buy from us for delivery but you cannot sell through us. You'll have to make delivery sales for equity from your other broker. Note that your intraday transactions are not affected by mapping an external DP.
2. We do not have a local office in Delhi yet... but it'll happen soon enough. Until then, you can call 080-40402020 from anywhere for support. Or you can email us at [email protected] or post on our blog Z-Connect.
3. We offer a discount if you print the application form on your own.

Dear Zerodha,

I know this request may appear silly, but still I will ask basing on what I have experienced/noticed. Request is, can you increase your RMS auto square-off time by 5 minutes for CO from 3:20 PM to 3:25 PM pleaseee?

Have often notice that interesting actions like huge short covering or selling coming in last 10 minutes. We miss out on this real action due to RMS auto cut-off limit. Would be very beneficial, especially for stock traders.

Ideally, the cut-off should happen just before 1 or 2 minutes of closing. But I do not think any broker will oblige given the risk associated with markets.

Thanks

Got this email from Zerodha

Nest Plus has recently been updated to version 1.7.1.0 to fix the problem of volume data not appearing accurately on your terminal. This is a critical update for all technical traders, so we urge you to update immediately. Some of our users are having problems updating to the latest version, so our technical team has given us a package which can be replaced in -- C:\Program Files\Omnesys\Nest3.

How to?
1. Close ZT and go to this link to download the package for 1.7.1.0
2. Press Ctrl + S on that page to download the package.
3. Extract the Package to C:\Program Files\Omnesys\Nest3 (or wherever Zerodha Trader is installed on your computer).
4. Once replaced, run ZT again. Press Ctrl + Shift + P to check the version of Nest Plus. It should be 1.7.1.0.

Once you've updated to 1.7.1.0, the system will not ask you for the Nest Plus password again and you should be able to use charts and algoZ without any problems.
