  1. right click on a column header and select the option to "Bold this column". Repeat for the others
  2. it makes the current settings of that indicator the default that will be used whenever you add that indicator to any chart. It is not tied to the template.
  3. if you save a chart template and restore it, MT restores that template exactly. That is kind of the point of it. The default is used when you add an indicator to the chart
  4. MT does show the most current value on the Y axis. What do you see there?
  5. Added Research to the right click menu. It points to Yahoo. MT does needed symbol conversions when bringing it up

    Dll for TDA

    I see, we will have that, but don't right now. Won't be for a few months

    Dll for TDA

    No, sorry, we have not been involved with supporting TDA API in 6 years. You would have to contact TDA for that. What exactly do you need to do? If it is just getting quotes, can help with that via MT and internal API here
  8. You are using TD Ameritrade. This has been an ongoing issue with them.
  9. we are not going to have DLLs, at least not at first. It will be HTTP probably direct TCP/IP socket connection API. Cost - it will require a Premium access subscription to MT: http://www.medvedtrader.com/pricing As for when, that I am not sure. A few months.,
  10. We connect directly to the server, without using any DLL. The API is documented, though I don't know if they still make it available. DLLs support both market data and trading, but it has been 7 years since I touched them, so don't remember any details
  11. the TDAASTX.DLL is ancient, 32 bit and has not been touched in a long time. We connect direct to the servers, basically what that DLL does. I really don't remember what was in there or how to use it. I would recommend connecting directly as well. Or if you can wait, wait for our API, which will be basically one API that you can use to connect to whatever sources MT supports. TWS API is a monster. That thing is Patches on top of patches. Its good for very specific programming (like yours) but nightmare to deal with for us, where we have to support all of their different security types, features. Symbols.
  12. You would need a subscription. QT was free to TDA clients because TDA owns it. We are an independent company and do not have any special arrangement with TD Ameritrade for their clients, so regular subscription fees would apply. First month is free no matter what. You would want to subscribe on our site in order to use the software unrestricted after that. You can sign up anytime (don’t have to wait for the end of the free month). Our system automatically gives full credit for the free month. We do have special deals with a couple others. Look at the top of the pricing section: https://www.medvedtrader.com/pricing
  13. the announcement was for QuoteTracker only. Medved Trader is not effected by that and will continue to function after September.
  14. You can set a chart configuration to be default (not just chart type). Configure one chart the way you want. Then on the VIEW tab on the ribbon, click either "Set as Default", or if you want to reset all existing saved charts, then "Set as Default for all"
  15. No, cannot import charts, lines, or any other settings. Thy are handled completely differently in MT. Only portfolios as for importing, please follow the instructions above. Cannot import directly from the zip files. Extract the PORT.XML file first
  16. The Background option in MT right now works - how is it not working for you exactly? Send your settings to support.
  17. MT cannot read the QT backup files. When you install MT, it should detect if you have QT installed and if it does, it will prompt you to import. If you already have MT installed and didn’t get prompted, you can do so manually, assuming you have QT installed on the same computer Select FILE / IMPORT in MT (on portfolio or Dashboard screen). Set the file type to be “old QT Portfolio Files” on bottom right and then select the PORT.XML located in the QT folder. (It might show up as just “PORT”) If you only have the backup files, then extract the PORT.XML file from there to somewhere on your hard drive first, then import that using the above instructions
  18. We will be working on the index panel soon. Paintbars are almost done so we are not going to just drop everything
  19. OK I see what you mean but... basically, don't do that
  20. Well, right now the next stuff out is Paintbars, Index Panel, API
  21. @SPT - the Open Interest, Delta, etc fields do not get sent by Questrade over the streaming datafeed. For us to get that, we would have to poll the server for that data for every symbol. I have it on the todo list to look into it.
  22. I looked but really don't see the difference. QT and MT handle the text box almost the same way. MT has more options but the basics are the same. Can you please email support with your settings files and a picture of the MT chart, and if you have it, the QT chart that you are comparing to so we can see what you mean? For files: go to FILE / Export/Backup menu (from Dashboard or Portfolio) Select “To share with others” export file protection option on top right Leave the checkboxes already checked Export, then email me the exported file please.
  23. Y, need to add full sorting there. And multi-select so you can export multiple PBs at once.
