MikeR Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Hi Jerry, I think there are a couple of minor bugs here. In the "Settings" window, I chose "UK Equities" and GMT as the timezone, then pressed "Set as Default". However when I open a new chart, the default is still for USA markets, and the timezone has to be adjusted for each new chart opened. Also, in the bottom RH of the "Portfolio" window, the "time to market close" is still showing USA timing, whilst the "Dashboard" window is showing the correct time for UK markets. The "Now" time is correct in both windows. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Mike - Default timeframe applies to what is shown on the Dashboard status bar as well as any symbols or streamers that do not have a timeframe already selected. Right now all streamers have one selected. As for symbols, I don't remember of the top of my head. Are you using Yahoo? What symbols specifically? BTW, you can change the streamer timeframe by clicking on the clock on the status bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeR Posted December 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Yes, only using Yahoo until MoneyAM comes online (hint, hint)! Still doing trading through QT & MoneyAM, both of which have proven to be wonderfully stable. For MT< specific symbols include: VOD.L, BATS.L & SSE.L Will test further when UK markets open tomorrow. p.s. My UK online broker is "iDealing.com". They are a pretty savvy lot, and might welcome a link for streaming quotes & integrated trading. If I contact them, I do get a personal response. Should I introduce MT to them, or are you too busy with US stuff (I realise that the UK is a minority interest). Don't forget, it was me that triggered the MoneyAM link for QT!

Jerry Medved Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 if you used VOD:LON, BATS:LON and SSE:LON, MT would have properly defaulted the timezone, or even if you would have used VOD:L, BATS:L, SSE:L, it would have worked. But since you used yahoo native format, MT just treated the whole thing as a symbol and did not have an exchange specified, which is why it got defaulted to US Equities. As for iDealing.com - we would certainly welcome a cooperating UK broker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeR Posted December 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Hi Jerry, Do you want me to stirr up MoneyAM & iDealing.com right now or would it be better to wait until the major issues with MT are fixed? QT is still working fine for me. Both will respond to me as an active client. Mike p.s. how is Mike's baby coming along? Probably a toddler now.

Jerry Medved Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 MoneyAM - I can dig up my contacts with them, so don't think that will be a problem. iDealing - go for it. Mike's baby is double digits now . Mike got another one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeR Posted December 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Can't be, I remember pictures of the first baby in the cot, only a couple of years ago it seems. No, QT can't have been going that long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
