  1. the DOM is showing what IB is returning so it is not a bug. IB in their infinite wisdom do not include everything via API that they do on their own Level II. the situation when you open and it scrolls to wrong place - same thing - screenshot Level II at the same time (maybe just set them both to same linked color so they switch together) I would recommend using dxFeed Level II data instead for active trading.
  2. can you please open the Level II window for the same symbol with IB as a source and when that happens, send screenshot of them together.
  3. Please get the beta version and let me know if the bid/ask stuff is fixed: https://medvedtrader.com/beta
  4. you have something wrong with the data. The bid/ask are messed up. What source is selected on the MAIN tab? Also, just FYI - you do not need to scroll. double click on center column should get it recentered automatically You have Unrealized P&L showing, which is for the day. The unrealized GAIN would be the GAIN $. you can click there to change what is shown. SHORTCUTS - Having plain letters available for shotcuts is VERY problematic for us. NOTE: you can use SHIFT LETTER (SHIFT A, SHIFT B etc) or most function keys. fields on tabs - if a particular field, like QTY or symbol is frequently needed and you want to access it without having to open toolbar or switch tabs, you can right click on the field on the toolbar and select "Add to Quick Access Toolbar". Symbol cannot be added I think but the QTY can be. might need to right click on the little arrows on the right side

    Schwab API

    you would just change AMTD to SCHWAB and of course update the account id
  6. in the case of IB, the timestamp is the time the quote came in. However, MT does show the delayed indicator on the symbol in the portfolio.
  7. hover the mouse over the X axis where the various date labels are shown. Now click and drag left/right
  8. 260 is something custom. disregard that. max # of days in MT is 120. max # of days for backfill with TD Ameritrade is also 120. With Schwab, it is 35, though MT will gather data up to 120. you just can't get 120 with Schwab if you don't already have it. as for 10, you probably have it set to max 10 for intraday for performance reasons, so yes, it will not impact you
  9. Quote Date and Quote Time columns are that. The combine quote and trade time though, and for some sources, MT has to assign the time itself (IB for example)
  10. pretty sure I would have tried to follow, not block. and probably hit a wrong button by mistake. I never blocked anyone commenting on MT, or any of the brokers. Only total spam stuff.
  11. 260 - ok I remember now. that was a custom thing and yes, you can still have that... just cant backfill that much if you dont already have it. X - you are right. you were blocked, but definitely inadvertent. unblocked now. should have mentioned it earlier
  12. actually, MT max is 120 days, not 260. Yes, the data you already have will remain. Just can't get more than 35 days of history if you are missing it. As for X, I don't think I have anyone blocked, other than some bot/spam accounts. Give your ID and I can check
  13. the 2 big differences really are the # of days on backfill and at least right now, no news. Other than that the rest should be the same once everything is released.
  14. Just updated again - make it work with various 2 factor authentication methods - SMS, Email (if still used), Robinhood App, or Authenticator app, with option for SMS failover if available.
  15. I updated the Robinhood configuration to handle the new login protocol. Should update for existing MT versions.
  16. I am referring to 3 different devices. Which accounts or how many you have does not matter. It is the login ID/password combo that matters. If the accounts are for different people, they will have separate logins on Schwab. If the same person is on all 3, then they will have one login only (unlike with TD Ameritrade). Ally Invest account? MT no longer supports Ally
  17. Schwab is restricting access to a single connection per login (which is problematic with all accounts on one login). Thus the authorization stuff you are seeing. Here is a way to get around that: On each of the 3 computers, save your Layout (FILE/SAVE LAYOUT) and then close ALL MT Windows (other than the dashboard) Close MT on all 3. start MT on one of the PCs, Load Layout (FILE/LOAD LAYOUT) and login to Schwab. Go to FILE/EXPORT, Select JUST "User Settings" in the list and select "For <your email> Account Only" on the right side for the Export File Protection NOTE the location of the file that will be exported. EXPORT The settings, and copy the file to the other 2 computers On each of the other computers, start MT, select FILE/IMPORT and import the file you copied in step 5 On each of the other computer, select FILE/LOAD LAYOUT and select the layout you saved in step 1. Now as long as you login to Schwab on one of the computers at least once within 7 days, it should be OK. However if you get a full login with Authentication again, you would have to do the steps again.
  18. the STOP price does not look right in the hotkey. should be an offset. My guess is IB is adjusting the value and thus the prompt. I need to get the log file to see the details. Please do the following: Go to FILE / HELP => Send Log/Settings to support menu (from Dashboard or Portfolio) And add this Post’s URL in the comment.
  19. should not have to. Are you using Schwab in MT on more than one computer? If not, then I need to get the log file to see what the problem is. Please do the following: Go to FILE / HELP => Send Log/Settings to support menu (from Dashboard or Portfolio) And add this Post’s URL in the comment.
  20. FYI - I just confirmed that TRUST roles are not yet enabled. Will be done in future updates (on Schwab)
  21. Hi Doug - during the login process one of the pages that shows is a list of accounts that you are authorizing. The account in question was not listed there, right? before today, Schwab API was restricted to not work with a bunch of account types. One of the things we were waiting for was for the update that went in last night to enable a whole bunch of different account types. However, I believe they still have some more to do, and I assume the Trust type is one of them. I will check with them about that.
