Sometimes I hate anti-virus applications.

One problem with this: a chart has to be open in order for the paintbar to work. The paintbar uses the data that the chart calculates.

We'd happily add them if they provide us a trading or streaming API (or both). From a cursory search it is not publicly available.

Can't right now. Let me think about a good way to do that. .

Open a trading window and look at your balances. If you see them, MT detects that you logged into TK/MB, are a TK/MB client and reconfigures itself accordingly.

Ok - I changed code so that it gives a buffer of the middle 1/3 of the scale. If the rightmost point on the chart goes out of that 1/3, it adjusts. Could be 1/2 - don't know what is better. Try it and see.

I will look at it.

One thing I would add is adding the if (High==Low) check - since otherwise you could be dividing by 0.

You're right. Missed that one. Will add.

Troder - here is the easiest way for you to show me something that is wrong with P&F charts so I can look at the specific thing and see what I can do... You gave me your data files. Here are two charts using that data: same time period... Can you point me (either describe it to me or make a copy of that image and put an arrow to it) exactly which boxes on P&F chart are incorrect? Thanks Mike

MT allows you to open a lot of different windows scattered all over your desktop. Docking would help you manage them. By pressing SHIFT while moving a window you would be able to "dock" it to another window, and from then on, until you undock them by pressing SHIFT while moving again, moving one window will move the other(s) in tandem... There are some tricky scenarios to be resolved, but that is the gist of it. This is almost done and will probably be in next beta.

Troder - can you try P&F at StockCharts for some symbols and tell me if those match your expectations? Also - I am really not sure what you're trying to achieve - but have you tried 2 reversal with .005 box?

1. Why not do 1 reversal and .01 box size? 2. Can you try the same exact chart with StockCharts P&F - http://stockcharts.com/freecharts/ and see if they match what MT plots?

Watchlist is just a list of symbols. Portfolio is a list of symbols and other information - like what you bought it at, the amount, and a note for each entry. There is a separate entry for "Watchlists" in help file under "Features".

1. We could add a column in portfolio that shows ask-bid, that's trivial, would that be useful? 2. Where in LII would that be shown? 3. Where in DOM would it be shown? AFAIU, especially in DOM trading (which is mostly for highly liquid futures) the bid/ask difference is always one pip/tick.

In Simple paintbar editor, on the right, after the "candles ago" there is the a field that by default contains "Bar" for the Volume indicator. Click on it and select "EMA". or, in Advanced paintbar editor, when setting the variable for the Volume indicator, in the rightmost column called "Value Name" select "EMA".

We will be putting that in. We don't want to do it same way QT did it, since it required details such as your SMTP server and its authentication parameters and confused people who were not techie. It's on the list. First, DOM trading and window docking. Then we will tackle email (and twitter and facebook etc. etc.)

Sleep is for wimps.

Sorry about the frustration. I noticed that Import/Export are not in our help file - just added that topic. Will be in next release.

Dashboard File menu - Import/Restore is 4th from the top.

Do an Export to a file on flash drive, including everything. On the other PC, do an Import from that file.

This "spam-blocking" thing's "false positives" is getting ridiculous. Too many lazy sysadmins are relying on services that are not discriminating enough and blocking too many legit emails.

In the latest beta, there is an option to invert the price chart's scale (in View/Options on the Chart window). This was a fairly tricky thing to do, involving many parts, and I may have missed some. So - please check it out and if you see any weirdness please report it. Thanks. And feel free to tell us if this is a useful feature. I myself never use that but we had several requests for it.

The scroller for charts is special - we coded it specifically for charts, it has functionality that is specific for charts (like being able to drag the edges) etc. The other scrollbars are generic OS scrollbars. Their widths are set by the OS, globally, for all programs. Here is how to change those for win10: http://winaero.com/blog/how-to-change-the-size-of-scrollbars-in-windows-10/ For Win7, go to you Control Panel/Personalization/Window Color click "Advanced Appearance Settings", set Item drop box to 'Scrollbars" , set Size spin control.

Do a search for "Scrollbar Height" Anyway - the setting is in Settings / Charts / Display - under "Dimensions/Sizes". What other frame elements? The window borders and caption height are set by the OS...
