Jerry Medved started following Schwab API update , time and sales colors , Tading with Schwab from the Medved program? and 7 others
-
EEEEEKKKK We do not have customizable color sets for Level II. Best I can do is give you the XML file for defining the colors and you can customize it yourself. If you want it, email us (support...)
-
initially will be stocks and options only. They indicated that futures will be looked at via API later, but right now the priority is to get the same API up and running.
-
IB's default limit is 3 unless you pay them for more "buckets" of data
-
1 line happens if MT does not have Level II data for the symbol. In that case, it just shows the bid/ask from the Level I quote in the first line. Do you have more than 3 Level II windows with IB as the source, or have Level II also showing in TWS?
-
Yes. you can use one source for Level I data (which is same as what charts use) and another for Level II. Not a problem.

on the TRADING tab, TRADE SETTINGS, set it to show order types. You can have a limit order selected or a market order. Also, I assume you want Auto-Submit? you can turn it on every session. If you want it remembered, there is a setting on SETTINGS/ TRADING / SECURITY to enable saving it
-
the columns you are seeing in the portfolio are for Manual Entry of positions. On the portfolio editor, you can enter the Price Paid and Quantity for each symbol, in which case those columns will be filled in. You can also drag/drop the rows from ACCOUNT VIEW/POSITIONS to the portfolio and MT will copy the corresponding QTY/PAID data. But it will not auto update. If you wish to have the auto updating stuff,then you would need to view it via the Account View/Positions window - you can add real-time columns in there too
-
I checked - right now the separate security code is NOT supported. I would have to look to see if I can prompt for the code before processing the login.
-
forget the login page window. on Dashboard, STATUS tab, is it showing faulted or green?
-
the browser thing is supposed to be internal. you should NOT be entering any login there. Is your login failing? A window is only supposed to show if there is some actual 2FA requirement.

Sure. Open the alert editor On top left, click the ARROW on the ADD button and select FILL ALERTS. Select what you want there - you can pick accounts, or select buy, sell, etc.. In the notification area select that you want to be notified by sound NOTE: you will want to set the alert to auto clear after 10 sec or so. Otherwise, once triggered it will not trigger again unless you explicitly clear it.

I would need to get the combination of those screenshots AND the log files to match, but basically MT tries to fill in those gaps best it can to make up for that little deficiency in Fidelity's systems - their POSITIONS updates are horrible. And yes, sometimes the transactions/orders show, but because of the delayed nature of their updates I am hesitant to base stuff on that - as you said there can be situations where you get out of the position before they end up updating it and I can't assume what stage the updates are at.
-
won't know that stuff until I get done implementing everything it will be done before then. Everyone's transition date is May 10 - that is when all remaining TD Ameritrade accounts are moved.
-
yep. Its all good. we got the API. working on it.
