    Schwab API

    The May transition is expected. We just got the API stuff last week. we are working on it now. Seems that we have plenty of time before May. There should not be any issues and we will have the Schwab integration well before then.
  2. ok actually, MOC is implemented in MT for Fidelity as an Order Type. I will look at MOO
  3. the Fidelity interface mimics what is on their website, not their App, and their site does not have MOC option.
  4. MAY Transition was expected - initially was Match and then they updated it to May. So everything is going as planned this time
  5. we just got the API stuff yesterday. I am working on it now. Seems that we have plenty of time before May.
  6. if you have the BETA option selected, then whichever one is latest is the one that will be returned. In your case, there is only prod version right now (194) which is why you are getting that.
  7. lets say your paper trading account login is luc123 You would have to login to R|Trader Pro with luc123 as a paper trading account and check the option about addon's. You would need to leave R|Trader Pro running after logging in (can minimize it) in MT, you would setup the quotes with: Username: PAPER:luc123 Password: (whatever your password is) and same for trading: Username: PAPER:luc123 Password: (whatever your password is)
  8. since scans basically operate on the last candle, yes, those two are the same, unless of course you had some calculations that accumulate data or one candle result impacts the next candle. But if you were to use the same scan in a paintbar, it would definitely be different. SymbolData.* is the "current" value of whatever field, regardless of which candle is currently being computed for the scan/paintbar.
  9. TStop - stop parameter is a fixed amount, like 0.50 TStopPT - stop parameter is specified as percent, so 2 would be 2% Bracket - is just a quick interface for entering OCA LIMIT + STOP MARTKET order.
  10. no, the indicators do not know about the frequency of the chart. The period of the indicator is # of candles so whatever the chart is set to, that is what it will refer to. So EMA 20 on a 1 minute chart will be for 20 minutes where as on a 5 min chart, it would cover 100 minutes. if you want to reference EMA 20 as it would be on a 5 minute chart, but on a 1 minute chart, you can just refer to EMA100
  11. if using "Simple" mode, you do one condition and if true, do nothing. if false, exit. Then in 2nd condition, you just trigger if true. It will only get to the 2nd condition if first one is true. If you convert to Advanced, well then you have full C# syntax capabilities, so you can do stuff like if (aaa condition and BBB condition) .....
  12. I think i see where the issue is coming up. its a bit convoluted. Sorry for the delay - got tied up... a lot.
  13. we have not received the API yet. As for nothing you can do, you can open a TD Ameritrade account for the time being. Specifically using this link: (otherwise the links on the site point to opening a Schwab account and make it difficult to find the link for TD Ameritrade) https://start.tdameritrade.com/select?entity=103
  14. The color sets for raw data and for portfolio grid are predefined only. Best I can do is give you the config file that defines them so you can manually modify the colors for your own color set. If you want that, email support and I will send you the details.
  15. you can duplicate the portfolio on the portfolio editor screen to get a 2nd portfolio with the same symbols. You can duplicate the scan definition on the Scan/Paintbar editor screen.
  16. thanks. Just fixed it up so it does not happen again. will be in next update
  17. I will need to contact you via email to go deeper.
  18. I checked the log you sent. It seems to be working now, BUT the login you are using seems to have one account and the status is "unopen". Are you sure that live account is working?
  19. MT was having problem reading accounts. I sent you an update via email earlier today
  20. it could be. If you still have a problem., send me the log file and I can check
  21. leave the alt quote source as none, and that would not impact login anyway. basically same thing just that you must have all 3 and you must enter the same userid/pass onto the webpage that pops up. sorry about that extra step but their login page is convoluted as heck.
  22. Ameritrade transactions update way faster than Fidelity when you place an order, Particularly noticeable if you have many transactions on the given day. Positions and balances on fidelity are also a bit delayed (at least a few seconds) compared to Ameritrade and Fidelity. Purely on technical, Ameritrade is better. But Fidelity Price Improvements are dramatically better, thus making it worth dealing with the disadvantages :). I do not know about Tradestation
