Dear OEC Team:

Will you create and publish API to OEC Trader Platform? It's very usefull and interesting to connect third part software with your platform. Why not?

Thank you.

I don't see there API to OEC Trader Platform. I see API to OEC Server and I use it a lot.

As far as I know, OEC API offers all the functionality OEC Trader is providing.
Are you looking for something specific?

Maybe it's my misunderstanding but I guess that OEC Trader Platform uses OEC API like any third part software working with OEC server. I am interesting now in API to OEC Trader Platform not in server API. The scheme is: Third party software <=> OEC Trader Platform <=> OEC server. I don't have any problem with the scheme: Third party software <=> OEC server.
Please advice.

sorry, but I am still confused. Could you please give an example of functionality of OEC Trader Platform that third party software would use?

It's basic - to use OEC Trader Platform like a connector between third party software and OEC server:
1. To get datafeed from OEC Trader Platform but not directly from the server.
2. To send orders from third party software to OEC Trader Platform and after that the platform will send them to server.

We have a solution that allows to share one instance of OEC API (and one connection to server) between OEC Trader and 3rd party application, using .NET Remoting.

Can it be used for your purposes?
