minor
same alert set on portfolios
if stock is repeated in portfolios then as many times repeated
will get same alert duplcated
-
in a portfolio with an option
the value is priced on the 'last'
whereas its normally price on the bid.
you cant get the last price if you want to sell.
you may get half way between the two if you are lucky

I use 9 pins
when i go to look to see if the pins are correct
would be nice to have the pin color shaded on the list
very hard to tell between some of the colors

MInor problem
when I have MT minimized and there is a call to setlinkedSymbol()
the linked chart is maximised i.e. displays on screen.

I have a background job that checks if MT and my scanner are running
and are working correctly as in not frozen.
Used to happen a lot with QT.
If they are frozen kills both and restarts.
I never like killing a process would always prefer orderly shutdown alt+F4
Things tend to get corrupted with a kill.

if i go into alerts and select say trailing stop
by percentage and then 1%
and then 5 secs timeout .
make this the default setting for trailing stops
and/or for other akerts.
would save a lot of time.
plus the ability to remove all alerts for stocks not in
portfolios.
keep up the great work.
how is it going with the api ?

to be able to set default setting for adding an alert
we always use
trailing stop
buy
points
.3
time out 5 secs
would be handy to have this as the default.
plus to be able to delete all alerts then
set the defaults to a complete portfolio

Ability to change defaults for "research"
"historical charts" etc on stock symbol options

Right now with stockwatch I have to use exchange code for certain symbols
i.e. Z:CIEN as CIEN is NYSE.
this is ok as backfill allows for alias
but for news,Research,Raw data,trade,options etc there is no alias.
So some method to define the exchange separately from the symbol
would solve the problem

OK that works fine now.

How do we hide hide the quick access menu
so we make a chart similar to the old format.

It would be nice to have quick alerts setup for trailing stops
either by import from spreadsheet or via API.
Also to set all alerts to timeout of (x) seconds
useful at start of trading when all alerts go off for first 10 minutes.

That sounds good,lots of work by the sound of it, any guesstimate for a time frame for the api?
Trading I don't need as I use TD active trader for that . QT I use mainly for the alerts
once I have the daily portfolios set up.I use trailing alerts which work well
For trading I would need a good T&S and alerts on ask or bid volume.
Something like sterling software has.

Currently use QT 3.9.9 with stockwatch feed and have a bunch of liberty basic programs
that use the api to update portfolios and charts ( would love more pinned charts !)
So could test out the beta with my software if its ready.
Could switch to DTN iqfeed to test it as well.
Would really like a better way of entering alerts ( trailing stops )
using the api
Have about 45 charts open on 2 monitors .
alerts repeat if stock is in 2 or more portfolios

Yes two alerts one for each
