Is Yahoo still a legitimate quote source in MT? I'm trying to use it in a watchlist for futures quotes since TDA doesn't have them. I selected Yahoo as the quote source with a 30-second refresh rate, however it will retrieve the quotes only when I manually refresh them, it will not refresh them automatically every 30-seconds.
-
It was there 2 updates ago, then disappeared 1 update ago, then the update this morning brought it back again. All of these updates were the Beta ones. If I wait 30 seconds it goes away but the tall row space it took up remains. Hitting F5 does not make it go away.
-
The clip in my first post is from my transaction window right after I modified one of my open option orders. That SUBMIT/DISCARD line remains after I click SUBMIT.
-
...and how to I get rid of it permanently? It's been showing up after I modify an open order.
-
I haven't been able to get quotes today since 5-minutes after the opening bell. Anyone else?

Ticker: ET January 24th Calls
L2 works for the 13.5 Calls but not the 14 ones. It's actually the same issue for Puts with an Ask and not a Bid.
-
I'm finding that I can't get L2 to display for options that only have an Ask and no Bid. I would think it should still give me a list the Asks instead of a blank slate. TDA is the quote source.

Beta Version: 1.1.8840.1 (2019-12-05), could you explain how to use the new feature: ADDED - COMMAND LINE option to launch MT from web page
-
Is there a way to make this feature more readily accessible? Even adding it the right click menu of the "Total:" line would help. I keep it checked by default only to keep the size of the portfolio window smaller, but often I uncheck it when I'm getting ready to close positions so that I can figure the FIFO share price I need to be in the green.

maybe it says something about the type of stocks you are playing
as for what we say, best I can do. sorry.
Well I'd like to play the popular fast moving ones, but MT just can't seem to keep up with those. ↘️ 🤪

not right now, but we will be doing that
You guys always say that. 🙄 😉 Take a look at this image of a 7-day period for just one of the stocks I'm dealing with. Out of the 42 news lines shown, 35 are garbage law firm announcements and only 7 are actual news. Multiply this window by many other stock tickers and it quickly gets annoying to have to weed through them all.
-
Is a news filter in the works by any chance? I'd love a way to block the articles regarding those bloodsucking law firms that announce class action suits multiple times a day.

Once we're done with a small avalanche of things here...
That means 'never', since you always have a small avalanche of things to do there. Sometime you've just got to make that move and git 'er done!

Ahem...I haven't brought this up in awhile and witness the result...no scrolling ticker tape.
-
Go to Files/Settings/News and near the top right of the window are 3 checkboxes, check the All Portfolios one.

everything should be back up
It is!

Wow, finally an issue that isn't just me.
-
I'm not getting index quote this morning using TDA as the quote source.
-
I changed the hotkey to ALT+L and the Low spike removal is working using that combination. MT seems to be blocking the CTRL+Shift+L combination for some reason.

please click on the DETAILS then send that to me
Oh, also, may have fixed that already. I will email you update to see.
Yes that update did solved the issue with the red X boxes in the news setting window. I tried to get the details but it wouldn't let me copy and paste it. Anyways I can't get it now since installing the 1.1.8816.103 update I just installed. -
Sigh! So I switched to another color set to see if that would fix it for me and the colors in the news window didn't change only the portfolio window, but now I'm getting an error when loading news settings. The first time it works, I then close the setting window and open it again and I get the big red X boxes. The only way to clear it is restart MT, then it happens again. Tried other color sets including going back to the Classis one and the problem persists.

Visual style is set to Dark and the default color set is at Classic.

Where do I find the list of futures tickers from TDA, I've looked and I can't find them. As to the CME GLOBEX, I made the switch and the auto refresh still doesn't work. 🤷♂️
