How to format and view Crypto Currencies in DreamTai

DreamTai does not have datafeed for crypto currencies.

However, if you get data for these from your data providers like Yahoo, you can format the prices and view them in DreamTai.

 

For BitCoin, the price data is available in sites like Yahoo Finance.

You can download the historical data and use PriceFormatter program to convert the prices to DreamTai format.

 1. Download the file [PriceFormatter.zip]

Contact DreamTai com Inc. for the [PriceFormatter.zip] program.

Save the file in the following folder: and save it in the following folder:
[C:\DreamTai_50225]  

2. In File Explorer, go to the folder [C:\DreamTai_50225]

3. Right click on the file [PriceFormatter.zip] and from the menu select

[C:\DreamTai_50225] folder.

6. Go to the folder [C:\DreamTai_50225\PriceFormatter\input] and save all the
data files you have downloaded from Yahoo Finance.
