  1. if you use OHLC 1 minute backfill (default) each minute is stored as 4 records in raw data, one for each Open, High, Low and Close. It is intended to be used with charts that have frequencies in multiples of 1 minute. If you want sub-minute charts and need to backfill, you need to use TICK backfill which is available with a few different providers. dxFeed, QuoteMedia, others.

  2. the easiest would be using a hotkey.  To do it direct, make sure "Order Types" panel is shown.  on it, the order type should be whatever the first order will be - AUTO, LIMIT, MARKET... on the far right there is a dropdown where you can select the conditional... select OTOCA.  a POPUP comes up where you can select the details about the conditional part of the order.  Specify that.. 

    Now when you place the order, it will be placed as a conditional

  3. Bid/ask highlighting - just shows red outline if bid goes down, green if it goes up (same setting as on portfolio)

    TIME and PRICE column - 
        TEXT COLOR is red if LAST <= BID, 
        GREEN if >= ASK. 
        Unchanged otherwise (gray in your case) 
        NOTE: you hav the green set as yellow it seems.  AND it looks at previous tick's bid/ask, not the current tick.

    PRICE OUTLINES - that is just the LAST CHANGE. Same as bid/ask highlighting. NOTE: you may want to make it show more than 2 decimals. Otherwise sometimes you will see MT show a change even though the displayed values did not seem to change

    if you can send it to me again; however I was wondering if it is possible to make dxfeed available on the hammer platform permanently with each update

    I will send you the files. Cannot auto include DX. However, once you add it in, it will stay there with subsequent updates unless you reinstall clean

  5. IB L II is good, BUT 1) limited to 3 at a time, and 2) there are some ECNs that are not included.  Its like they go out of the way to complicate things.

    TradeStation - I have not actively used them for trading myself, but from what I saw they seem very good. Fast updates and comprehensive.
