Investor/RT Configuration Variables

All About Investor/RT Configuration Variables

Investor/RT has hundreds of end-user configuration settings that are called configuration variables. Many of them are rarely if ever used. These are global settings that affect the run time behavior of the platform in varios ways. Listed below is a report of all the configuration variables along with a description as of December 2024. You can view this report at any time from within Investor/RT itself by opening the Configuration Preferences window ( File > Preferences > Configuration) and clicking on the Help button. This creates a report in web page (html) format as seen below. You may then use the Find feature of your web brower to search the report text for terms of interest. When you click this Help button with the SHIFT key down, the report will show ONLY the configuration variables for which your Investor/RT differs from the default behavior of the platform. Finally, the Configuration preferences window in Investor/RT has a search box at the upper right that is useful for viewing all variables whose name or descriptive text contain some word or phase. For example, many Investor/RT users use DTN IQFeed or DTN Market Access historical services, thus searching for the word DTN or the word IQFeed will filter the list of hundreds down to those of interest.
