  1. 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.

  2. 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

  3. 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

  4. 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

  5. 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

  6. 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.

  7. 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.
