  1. I use MedVed Trader with TDA and I have a question. I trade mainly options and have issues placing a STOP LOSS on an open Trade. 

    When i open the Option I open a chart for the strike price i entered. I cannot figure out what the right order type is to set the stop loss. 

    Thanks for the help in advanced.

  2. I have been writing my own scanner and have a few questions.

    Main bias is based on 5 /8/ 13 ema on 5 or 15 min time frame where the scanner is running. However, what I want is to look at the 1 hour chart to find the direction based on two emas stacked in a direction. 

    I dont know if the logic of the scanner can perform the validations because the scanner is running on the 15m TF but I need it to validate the 1 hour. 

     

    Example: 

    Scanner Runs on 15 tf 

    Logic:

    IF Timeframe 60 min 50 EMA >  62 EMA then Bullish Tend

    {

    Do other logic here

    }

    order types are really dependent on the broker. Brokers document their order types. MT just supports whatever the broker has. 

    Ok I will look at TD Ameritrade to find what i should use then?

  4. Is there a help topic that explains the different types of orders? 

    I want to start placing a Stop Loss and Take Profit. I am just trying to understand the different types available. 

     

    Thanks,

     

  5. Root Symbol which is on the Option Chain would be cool to have on the Intraday Char.

    I think i will use the LEVEL 2 as my starting point but it would be nice to have this as an option on the Chart to just enter a symbol and bring up the data..

  6. There are times that i don't have time to add a Symbol to a watch list. Is there a way to have a black chart for quick quotes? Chart would already have your preferred template, just enter symbol and quickly look at the chart to decide if u want to trade it. Options on right click add to watch list -> select watch list save. 

  7. Quotes are running fine in the Watch List if that is what you are asking. 

    Alternate Quote Source is NONE currently.

    Today the Profits on the Position tab in Account View were running a lot better. Maybe it is a TDA issue?

    Should I contact TDA?
