Metrics & graphs update frequency
Although our ultimate aim is to offer live analytics, we currently offer different levels of update frequencies depending on the graph/metric.
DARWIN metrics are updated at four different frequencies — from real-time updates for VaR and D-Leverage, to once-daily updates for most graphs, tables, and scores.
Types of metrics and updates
There are four update frequency tiers across DARWIN analytics metrics:
- VaR and D-Leverage: Updated in real time. This data is not directly visible to traders, but drives the Risk Engine.
- DARWIN quotes and returns: Updated every minute.
- DARWIN drawdown graphs: Updated once per hour.
- DARWIN graphs, tables, scores, and analysis: Updated once daily during the European night session. Exceptions include Return distribution and trading days, which are updated in real time.
