  1. Right. I know they are different things but my point was if the datafeed coming from TD doesn't even provide ETB/HTB into MT then I highly doubt SSR information is provided by any datafeeds. MT is limited by what the data feeds provide.
  2. On your portfolio you can add a column for shortable. Right click on the column headers, click column chooser, scroll down and look for shortable. Drag it over and drop it where you want the column to be. It works well for TD Ameritrade's data feed. But it doesn't show ETB/HTB. For that I end up making a watchlist in Think or Swim so I can see the ETB/HTB. Not sure if IB's data feed provides shortable info.
  3. Was smooth for a bit. Now back to the chop. Uggh. Guess I won't be scalping options today. Can't risk getting caught in one of these pauses.

    Data Sources

    Ahh thanks Jerry. I was having this issue too. I didn't realize unchecking the "Show at top of selection list" was the way to turn them off. I had been trying to set the smart source priority to never, and unchecking all the supported functionality stuff. Didn't dawn on me about the top of selection list. I figured it was just a way of sorting the ones you could use. Perhaps adding a snippet to that checkbox in the future explaining that it disables accounts as data sources? To make it blatantly obvious for the technically challenged users like me 😁
  5. Had an instance like this happen to me once. Ended up being I had TD Ameritrade as the source on one watchlist and Ally as the source on another that was running in the background and they weren't playing nice together.
  6. Right but for the life of me I can't figure out how to setup the editor to only show an arrow on the color change 😆 I'd have to use some sort of cross up wouldn't I? What am I doing wrong here?
  7. I really like how the Hull changes color as a visual indication of trend change. Would it be possible to add parameters to the paintbar for the Hull so I can add arrows for the color change? Seems my only parameter in the rule editor is for line. I can't seem to get any crossing commands to produce a signal on the color change. Any help would be appreciated. Edit: The arrows in the screenshot are for the WWV paintbar.

  9. There is list of keyboard shortcuts you can view and edit to your liking in the settings. Click File > Settings > Application > Keyboard shortcuts. . Alt+F (Flatten) is my favorite feature when trading leveraged ETF's. It'll instantly cancel all standing orders and sell all shares at market. It's the most common way I exit trades when day trading. In not so volatile equities I just use the bracket order when I'm day trading so I can set my stop and sell limits as soon as I enter the trade. As far as the OCO orders I concur. I've struggled to figure them out as well. I like the ideas you listed above, hopefully Jerry can add some insight.
  10. Just recently started utilizing Fidelity through MT. Was previously on Robinhood but their recent hiccups forced me to switch. I love MT for daytrading as it allows quick order entries and the flatten feature is awesome. But in regards to Fidelity I'm using a cash account and I need to see the "settled cash" available in the account window balance tab so I don't inadvertently trigger a good faith violation. I'm able to see the available to withdraw in the window but for settled cash I have to login to the website or app. Would it be possible to add it to the account window in MT?
  11. I've also had this issue recently. Get an error unable to pull up option chain from TD Ameritrade. If I switch the feed to Ally it'll pull it up, then I switch it back to TD and then it tends to work fine from there. Not sure if it's a Medved issue or just a sketchy data feed from TD.
  12. So I went over to Equity Alerts and looked at some of the screenshots of the new Clearlines indicator working in Medved. Unfortuently I can't really zoom in the screenshots enough to get a good idea how it's working. It does seem pretty interesting and something I could probably make use of. Can you provide any more info on it? Is there a way to get get like a week trial on it or something? I'd like to be able to fiddle around with it a little and see how it works for intraday before I commit to buying it. Is anyone here currently using it that has any input on how it works?
  13. Hmmn downloaded and ran the update again. My program version is saying 1.1.8400.1 x64 is that the correct version for the update?
  14. Ok installed the update Jerry emailed me. Changed the parameters in the paintbar. But still getting the red X
