ComTraderAdapter automatically processes the trades from the ComTrader continuous export file, performs user-defined data Transformations and sends the results to various flexibly configurable Endpoints such as local files, shared or FTP files, databases, web services or emails. Every new trade record written into the continuous export file triggers such transformation process within 1 second.

the Continuous Export functionality in your ComTrader session
2. Configure
trade record Transformations and Endpoints in ComTraderAdapter
3. Monitor
and control the post-processing of your EPEX SPOT trades
Transformations & Endpoints
Transformations define HOW the trade record data should be transformed. Endpoints define WHERE the transformed data should be sent afterwards. Creation of both is very simple and flexible!
Transformations use a simple concept of using column names as placeholders, e.g. <Contract>, <Qty> or <Trade No>
During a transformation, placeholders will be replaced with the actual values from the particular trade record, e.g. "20190104 05:00-20190104 05:30" instead of <Contract>
Transformation can be defined in a plain text form or in form of MS Word or Excel file
In case of an Excel file, you can simply put the placeholders in any cell (example)
In case of a Word file, you can insert the placeholders anywhere in the file (example)
Then you can configure one or more Endpoints, where the result of every Transformation will be sent
Supported Endpoint Types
Here’s a list of Endpoint types currently supported by ComTraderAdapter. Transformation results can be sent to one or more Endpoint types and to any combination of them. One Endpoint type may be used several times with different configurations (e.g. data being sent to files on two different FTP servers).
File
Write transformed data to a local or shared file...
FTP
...or to a file on an FTP server
Email Text
Send transformation result as email body text
Email Attachment
Send the resulting file as email attachment
Database Statement
Oracle, MySQL PostgreSQL, MSSQL
HTTP SOAP
Transformation result as a SOAP web service call
HTTP REST
REST call (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH)
Shell Command
Execute text result as a shell command
Installation And Running Of ComTraderAdapter
ComTraderAdapter is a Spring Boot based application, which can be installed and run as a Windows service, and the only system requirement is Java 8 (the same you use for ComTrader) in order to run it. You don’t even need a database server or a mail server. ComTraderAdapter uses its own standalone database and we can provide you an email account <your_company>@comtraderadapter.com for you to be able to use the email sending functionality.
ComTraderAdapter is a proprietary software released under an End-user licence agreement (EULA), which must be accepted prior to using the software. Please make sure to read the EULA before you start to use our software.

Executing a trade in ComTrader is just the first step. The next step is to post-process the trade and/or let other systems or people know the trade has been executed. And that's where ComTraderAdapter comes into play - it processes your new trades automatically and saves you time and money!
The development process of the software has reached the stage, where clients' input is needed in order to make the software as suitable for clients' needs as possible. Therefore, the software is provided at this stage for free. Please use the software as much as you like and please, provide feedback! PS: current free version of the software is not supposed to be used in production environment
Feedback from clients within the testing phase will be evaluated and used to improve the software to make it as efficient and product-market fit as possible.
