What is the difference between snapshot screen updates and dynamic screen updates?

Customers on plans that offer dynamic screen updates obtain a continuous stream of data, from the Bourse Data System. This means that the data in each view is continually updated in front of them, whilst they are using the Bourse. Plans that offer snapshot screen updates allow customers to obtain snapshots of current market data from the Bourse Data System. Customers need to request current data each time they wish to update a screen (usually by clicking on the Request button). Excess usage charges can apply. Comprehensive information on snapshots and how they are charged is available here. There are no extra charges for dynamically updated data and the number of screen updates is unlimited. Contact our Customer Care Team if you would like information about how you can upgrade your subscription to have dynamic data.
