same market in two tabs

[alrodopial]

Hi,
if refresh rate is ie 2secs I guess there will be different calls to Bf to get the data
just to verify my thoughts:
will I get "the same prices AND at the same moment" in both tabs if both markets have full-stream-on
as now BA is passively receiving the data from BF (no data calls from BA to BF)?

Most of the time it will be the same prices, but as both worksheets will be updated on separate threads it's possible updates will be missed on either worksheet. When the market is busy there can be up to 50 updates per second. If Excel is still being updated when the next refresh occurs, then that refresh will be skipped on one or both worksheets. Therefore, I cannot guarantee both worksheets will have exact same data each refresh.

When streaming is enabled the price cache is updated in the background up to 50 times per second depending how busy the market is and prices are read from this cache every two seconds. No calls are made to the API.
