  1. you have custom Date format in settings set to yyyy-mm-dd. problem is that mm refers to minutes, not months. It should be yyyy-MM-dd
  2. R|Trader cannot login? If so, MT would not be able to either. You would need to resolve that first.
  3. you could setup a hotkey to exit 1/2 but there is no way to do a conditional order involving multiple exits like that
  4. Yahoo backfill would be delayed. from what I see here, you subscribed to Barcharts for index data but don't see anything for equities and options. You may want to check on your subscription
  5. how about mouse wheel while holding CTRL+SHIFT?

    no problem. We are making some progress. Just narrowed down level II issue - seems that the data being bad is also tied to the delayed Options etc. Some authentication issue. So once that is fixed, we may be able to release in beta.

    We will release before the 10th since I at least have the datafeed working. though right now options are delayed. I just don't want to release without everything working properly unless I have to since that will create a support nightmare.
  8. UPDATE: I Just got it to work reliably. Select FILE / HELP => Check for updates Let MT update all files, then restart MT, even if nothing updated.
  9. was a bug in the specific version you are using. I just emailed you an update.
  10. Get the BETA version of MT: https://medvedtrader.com/beta After that Go to dashboard window. Click on SOURCES on top right. If Yahoo is faulted (red), Right click on Yahoo and select Force Relogin – should fix. Might need to do it more than once.
  11. Yes, AccountValue is there. So is Cash (Cash Buying Power), OvernightBP and bunch of other stuff
  12. As far as the Schwab stuff, once the API stuff is done and integrated, it should be same as, or faster than TD Ameritrade (via MT) As for Fidelity, I am not holding my breath. Their people are very nice and I actually did get some limited help, but in general nothing seems to move them toward opening the API. Multiple 7 and 8 figure accounts have asked, demanded, etc. no go. They have their problems, but 10s of thousands of $ per year in price improvements certainly makes them easier to swallow. Don't know about Schwab, but TD Ameritrade just cut their PIs off overnight about 3 years ago
  13. on DOM, don't you have the FLATTEN button on top left? On chart, you have the flatten button on the TRADING tab. if you want it visible when the toolbar is hidden, then just right click on that button and select "Add to Quick Access Toolbar" Alternately, You can create a Hotkey/Saved order to do FLATTEN and specify the button text and color and make sure to check the "Saved Order" checkbox. Then on DOM and on the chart, select the options to show Order Types. On the order type panel right click and select to show saved orders. That new button you created will be there.
  14. 1) volume at the top, is from the current Level I quote and is not in any way tied to the chart data. if you clear the chart data entirely, total volume will still be there. 2) from what I see the OHLC backfill seems to have correct volume. With tick data, if you have it set to show Odd Lots, it is showing same volume as with OHLC backfill. If you turn off odd lots, it is lower - obviously. 3) what is the significance of 480 min candle? with extended hours on, it may cause the candle to start at different time than on other platforms resulting in different indicator and volume values. It is very difficult to make any comparisons when you post snippets with parts of charts cut off. It seems that dxFeed OHLC data includes odd lot ticks. With others, some do, some do not. We do not have control over that in most cases
  15. y, for me basically the price improvements made up for the performance and I traded with the fidelity specific stuff in mind, like keeping position size in my head during fast entries/exits. Plus, you see the execution on T&S before account view
  16. Uncheck ODD LOTS and compare
  17. I checked here- I have tick data for the symbol. 4.47 with Extended hours, 4.66 if RTH only. NOTE that for extended hours to actually be included, the chart has to be set to show them, not just the indicator. Also VWAP can be very sensitive to the data that is being used so try clearing the data and backfill. If you use an aggregated datafeed, the difference can be significant.
  18. No, we don't have automated trading. You could setup screen sharing software and remotely connect to your PC. Can have MT send alerts when the conditions occur and then connect at that point

    We'll post here and on Twitter, and most likely email
  20. y with Fidelity you do NOT want to rely on position data being up to the second. When daytrading at the open, I keep that in my head :). ATP shows delayed positions as well. they have "updating" or something. Very annoying. my other one is TD Ameritrade, so Schwab. Waiting to finalize that to release. IB would be very quick.
  21. no need. Far easier to just hit F5 on positions. They do delay that at times. I have seen it as much as 30 seconds when trading near the open
