I ran MT all night for the futures using my backup user name. By itself, with no MBT running. Ran just fine. When the market opened 15 minutes ago, I logged off MT.
I then logged on MBT using my primary user name. It was working fine. So I then opened up MT, using my backup user name, and it
was frozen. No data coming in. So just the opposite problem as of yesterday. Now either one or the other seems to freeze up from getting data. I got your email,
but I am attempting to translate it into English. I am not computer savvy. Meantime my QT chugs away with no problem compatibility with MBT.
-
No problem. I'm just a retired guy with nothing better to do than guess what happened. We'll get it working.
-
Even though MT was not running, it still had impacted MBT Pro somehow, which was only resolved by doing a clean install of MBT Pro.
But I want to keep trying until it is figured out. Thus the beta version.
-
I would like to keep trying to get the two to work together. Unfortunately I uninstalled MT. Can you shoot me
a link to install it again. They worked yesterday when using that certain launch sequence. What happened today
I do not know. Something with the two user names perhaps. I don't know. Please send me a download link.
-
Well I had to uninstall both programs and start clean with MBT so I don't know what else to say. They don't work together.
-
Wednesday morning, life is not so good. MBT Pro is completely locked up and not receiving quotes. MT is receiving quotes. I called tech support, they took control over my
computer and worked on it for 25 minutes and could not find out what was wrong. The only solution was to uninstall MT, and still MBT Pro was locked up. So I then uninstalled
MBT Pro, reinstalled it, and it now works. MT is not on my computer. So I am using QT again. Sorry, but there is some bug in there somewhere. The tech at MBT had never
heard of MT, and I told him it was recently approved a week or so ago. So back to the drawing board. The two programs are not working together.
-
If I launch MT first with user name #1, and then launch MBT Pro with user name #2, the pop up box first appears warning me that MBT Pro is already open.
Continuing on, I then launch the PRO but it is locked up and does not work. When using the same user name for both, and MT first, no pop up box, but same
result. The Pro does not work. So the immediate solution is to launch MBT Pro first followed by MT. You may want to alert other MB Trading users of this
sequence assuming there might be some using this beta. Perhaps I am the only one using MBT as my data source. I have been riding you for the past two
years when MBT will be online and it is finally here. So it seems as long as you open the two programs in the correct sequence, they both work. Others should
be made aware of this fact. Other than that, life is good !
-
No go. Opened MT first, then opened MBT Pro second with the same user name. No pop up box this time, but the MBT Pro is locked up and not
working. The computer must think MBT Pro is already opened. So in its mind the second attempt will not let me run two MBT Pro's at the same time.
Their computer obviously cannot tell the difference between MBT Pro and MT. It thinks they are one in the same. I will leave to you to figure this out.
-
I closed out both. I logged into MBT Pro first using a user name. Then I logged into MT second, using the same user name. Both software programs are working
using the same user name. So that is good to know. Now, what happens if I reverse the login sequence? Don't know, but I bet the pop up box will open saying
I have already launched MBT Pro. I suppose I will experiment with that next.
-
Ok, I see what is happening now. Again I am still using two different user names. If I open/launch MT first, and then go to open MBT Desktop Pro (it is no longer called navigator),
a warning box pops up saying that I have already launched, or opened, the Desktop pro. It thinks I am trying to open it again. So when I then do open it, which it does, it must think I am opening a
second attempt at Desktop Pro, and it just sits there not working. So it must not be able to tell the difference between MT and MBT Desktop. Their computer thinks they are one in the same. If I
reverse the order and open the Desktop Pro first, it works, and then MT is only getting data, I suppose, so it works as well. I will let you dwell on this and figure out what needs to be done. Again I am
still using two different user names.
-
So are you saying I can launch both programs (MT and MBT Desktop Pro) using only one user name? No more two
user names like QT?
-
A few years back, in order to run both QT and the MB Trading software at the same time, two user names were necessary, one for each program. That was something new
as prior one user name ran both programs. Continuing in this vain, I am continuing to use one user name to run the MB Trading Desktop Pro platform, and my second user
name to run MT. However, if I launch MT first, and then the Desktop Pro, the Desktop Pro is locked up. No feed comes thru. If I launch the Desktop Pro first, followed by
MT, then both work fine, running at the same time. Is this normal, or is there something wrong and it should not matter which software program is launched first? Since I am
using two user names, I would not think it should matter what the launch sequence would be. It didn't matter with QT.
-
I have not upgraded to Windows 10, however I get the pop up asking me to do this
about four times per day. Annoying. Is it safe to go with 10 now?
-
Appreciate your patience. Looks like I have put QT into mothballs after about 18 years of use. MT
works just fine. Actually seems like it draws charts more precise than QT. And it loads much faster.
When will it convert from Beta to the real thing?
-
Got it fixed. Child windows? Interesting term. Clicked it.
-
When I have a chart working, if I click my cursor on anywhere other than the chart, the chart vanishes.
I then have to click to pull up the chart again. Can I lock the chart to keep it from doing this?
-
Scroll bar. Got it. Set it to 6. Almost gone. Thank you.
-
Ok, figured it out. The moving average price was also showing as a "last" box behind the price "last" box. So I unclicked it. And it is gone.
Problem solved. I am knocking these questions down one by one.

With QT you could deactivate the slider at the bottom of a chart. Can you deactivate this slider with MT?
And then bring it back if you need it?
-
I took a picture of my monitor with my Iphone and sent it to jerry@medvedtrader.com. The yellow box is the "last" thing that moves up
and down as the price changes. Mine happens to be set as yellow as the color. But behind it are two other "last" things in black, which also move
up and down. But the price in these two box things has nothing to do with the last price of the future. Are they some form of bid/ask prices or
something?
-
Yes, it was the news. Clicked it off. I don't use news at all. Sorry. Takes a little getting used to MT.
I am having QT withdrawal symptoms. Give me a couple of days and I will be out of QT rehab.
-
Every time I launch MT, a box pops up asking me to login to IQ feed. But I don't use IQ. I am using MBT as
my data source. Why does this IQ box keep popping up, and how do I stop it.
-
Over on the right axis of the chart is the yellow arrow with the current price inside. But, there also seems to be three other black arrow boxes behind
it with other prices. I am trading futures so there is no period with cents necessary. What are these other three black boxes, and how do I get rid of them?
MT and MB Trading launch problem

I have settled on using my two user names, and logging into MBT Pro first, followed by MT. This seems to be working as I have done it numerous times with no issues.
At this time I will leave it at that, and let sleeping dogs lie.
