I am trying out the TT and would like to know anyone has a workable Excel RTD for a look? That would be very much appreciated if you could share it out.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?

I'm still using old-TT not new-TT but will say that TTs Excel Functionality is excellent and I use it heavily every day, with virtually no issues at all in 10+ years.
Might help to know how you want to use it. I use RTD from CQG for historical download - very easy. I don’t think TT has that but TT is very good for real time/position etc data integration

Yes that's all very doable, or at least was in old-TT. Old-TT also had "Free Form Text" fields" ("FFT") and you could even pull information based upon those, as well as, or instead of account details. So say for example you were Trading Brent on ICE, and WTI on CME, and those trades went into different accounts. If you set you FFT2 field to say "Brent-WTI" you would in excel be able to pull position information based upon the FFT2 field, hence regrouping your PnL. I searched to see if new-TT was similar but was unable to confirm if the same functionality exists. In some screen shots I could see "Text 1" and "Text 2" fields which probably do the same but couldn't find documentation saying such. @TradingTech can you clarify?
The problem is that plain and simple doesn't work. Take the dedicated RTD space you linked to. The first 5 questions have an average response time of 74 days!
The delayed response to due to a bug with the forum vendor software. We we're notified about many posts. They've fixed that bug so no need to worry about delayed response. I took ownership of the forum and will make sure you get a resonse.
