When you do a backfill with MT it screws up the volume for the current bar on most stocks. I thought it may be an NYSE symbol problem so I only watched NASDAQ stocks today. That was not the issue. I did the following, I opened up NInjatrader 7 with TD Ameritrade feed and backfilled the same symbol that I just backfilled with MT. Volume was fine on NinjaTrader 7. I also had Trade Architecture open with the same symbol and I watched the T&S on all 3 platforms. Let me tell you, MT has got something going wrong in the Raw Data. NinjaTrader 7 has almost identical T&S as Trade Architecture while Medved Trader looks as if it tries to consolidate volume too much, and at times it appears to show the total volume of the previous candle or something. I am still trying to figure those out. I will also use IB datafeed with trader workstation tomorrow to see if it is not handling volume correctly with IB. Ninjatrader 7 is handling volume correctly so this can't be an issue with the datastream, in my opinion.

I actually meant <Symbol><Change%><Bid><Ask> ......sorry or choice between both for others

Is there anyway you can add an Intraday Caption Style <Symbol><Change><Bid><Ask>

after I posted it seems to be working again now. Will post if trouble returns

Trade Tickets quantities are not adjusting according to amount I have entered in the setting for trading accounts quantity tab. this was working previously

FIXED. No apology necessary. thanks for the quick fix.

I was charged m monthly subscription to my credit card on Dec 1st and now it says I have a free account today. I will PM you about this

Since I only need the info every once in a while I did a back fill using Yahoo Finance for intraday backfill and it populated. Is there any chance you can add the Float Column? Thanks you, sir

Thank you very much, sir

I use Yahoo Finance for Historical Backfill. On the web page it shows shares outstanding, however it does not populate that column in the watchlist. I have also tried Google finance, TDA and IB with no luck. Is there anyway to get this info to fill because I do not trade low float stocks and shares outstanding is good enough unless you can make a float column and have it update which is on Yahoo FInance webpage

Is there anyway to make the default order type Market. It defaults to Limit and I have to change it every time and sometimes the stock is moving fast and this slows me down and costs me extra on an entry Also is there anyway to have a midpoint entry button like in the order entry of TWS for IB

Does MT have top list ie. NASDAQ Top % Gainers, Top % Losers, NYSE Top % Gainers, Most Active......

Is trading within MT able to use Simulated mode for testing and training. Using the Trading feature in MT in either Live or Sim mode would be great for getting use to the new Chart Trader, DOM, and order entry? If it is not will it be added in the future?

Can you add a plot of the Midpoint of the Candlestick I have attached a pic of how I have it plot in Thinkorswim

ok C# it is I am trying to get all of my Paintbars moved from my Thinkorswim platform to Medved Trader Trying to figure out how to have a rule that a Candle closes in the top 25% on a green candle and the inverse closes in the bottom 25% of a red candle Close >= High - ((High-Low) * .25) works in Thinkorswim, no luck getting it in C# yet any help is appreciated I haven't programmed since C++ in college 20 years ago

I was wondering if your paintbars can be written using switch, variable, plot

Thanks PaulDee

Where is the "Scale by May" checkbox setting located?

Great!!!

Will you be integrating Trade-Ideas with Medved Trader as you did with QuoteTracker?

Yes, need it to be + and - % from Prev close Thanks for the Range data

Can you add Range to the Databox when you hover over a candle? Also horizontal Lines with lines that show percent lines from previous days close (example +1% and -1% / +2% and -2% and so on and so forth from previous days close)

How about if you want a new bar alert you make it Alert at the open and only alert once on the first occurence. Would this work easily. I am looking at the open of the new bar not the close of the current bar.

I was wondering if there is a New Bar Alert that will play a sound at the beginning of every new bar. This is helpful for letting me know when a bar has completed if I am not at my PC or my eyes are not on the chart at that moment.
