I have it on my todo list....

holding down the SHIFT and drawing is not fast enough? if you set the line default to extend left and right, you have a line going in both directions with one click

still not there...

Hmmm. That is new. Please send me the logs and I will check on it

exactly. different sources send stuff differently. Ones that send all details are usually sending every tick. IQFeed, QuoteMedia.

Yes. You yourself said that odd lot trades do not update the last on the stock. that is all that you are seeing.

IB has a completely separate datafeed for T&S keep in mind that MT is basically creating the T&S from the Level I quotes.

But the last price is whatever the current LAST is for the quote. In your example that would be 12.20

if default, the data is aggregated. MT for every quote, MT just stores the LAST, BID, ASK and the change in volume from previous. You would need to understand how the data is sent. If selecting TICK Streaming, MT gets the TIME_SALE requests, which returns every trade and merges it with the default datafeed, since the default one is what has stuff like bid/ask, high/low, etc. TICK data does NOT include odd lots. In your case, I am pretty sure what you describe is the default data - not TICK data. Well, the LAST at the time the volume changed (in your example) was 12.20. There is no way for us to know that it was traded at 12.15. This works as intended.

Not quite sure what that means. Keep in mind that the default TD Ameritrade datafeed is aggregated, so each row may represent more than one trade. You can turn on Tick quotes but then the trade sizes that are reported do not include odd lots. Not something we can do anything about.

we actually have some candle patterns defined. The problem with stuff like Double Top is that defining it is not as simple as it sounds, particularly when the same formula must be able to detect the pattern on different symbols. What the eye can catch is harder to quantify. We would be glad to implement it - give me specific criteria.

Get the new beta version: https://medvedtrader.com/beta it fixes the issue

got feedback. for the moment, if you get options on $SPXPM.X you will get the missing days. Issue started when they started to have AM and PM options. I will see if I can do something for to request both and merge them client side. But the above is a temporary fix.

FINALLY Tracked down and fixed the problem. with no help from E*Trade. Can't believe they couldn't tell us the cause of this before. It was a simple thing with internal client order ID. However, the error message has NOTHING to do with the actual problem I emailed you. And updated MT for others...

don't think it is crash related, though could be. I had it happen once myself but am unable to recreate. the betas have extra logging specifically to try to catch that so we can tell what's up
