What this system is

TOS-RTD-core is a legacy Windows Forms application designed to capture near real-time stock and futures price data from the ThinkorSwim platform. It connects to Excel via the RTD interface to pull last prices for specific instruments at approximately three-second intervals. The system writes this captured data to daily CSV files, providing a dataset for algorithmic trading or machine learning analysis.

How it got here

2020 — Initial release of TOS-RTD-core for capturing real-time market data

1 change.

This change introduces the core functionality of the TOS-RTD project, which captures near real-time stock and futures price data from the ThinkorSwim (TOS) platform. The application uses a Visual Basic Windows Forms interface to connect to Excel via the TOS Real Time Data (RTD) interface, pulling last prices for specific instruments (including /ES, /NQ, SPY, AAPL, etc.) at approximately 3-second intervals. The captured data is then written to CSV files, with one file generated per day, providing a dataset for algorithmic trading or machine learning analysis.

brtnsmth/TOS-RTD-core was measured the same way every project in this corpus was: the same rubric, at a pinned commit, with the result published in full. Point a surveyor at a repository you know and see whether you agree with it.

About this page

  • The score is its most recent published measurement, taken on 6 October 2026 at a pinned commit. It is not a live figure and does not change until the project is measured again.
  • Measured at commit 71e0a1e1df670fa87eb27d8a86e3f75d11da24bb — the exact code this score is about.
  • Scored under rubric-2026.10.1 — the same rubric and the same method as every other entry in this index.
  • Measured by watchdog.canine.dev using codehealth-analyzer preprod-1f9c535fa862.
