[alert LOg indicator]

? ?  Im running the latest production

[alert LOg indicator]

Cant use the new alert log indicator, get errors as soon as its added  to the chart .

I sent a log a of this a while back. 

 

[Price Range Filter for alerts]

   Forgot you could do a portfolio alert, never use that.  Not a bad solution

[New Alerts on chart feature]

  Very nice, wonder why I didnt think of it .

[Price Range Filter for alerts]

 Very hard to control price spike/move alerts ,  as the sensitivity of low priced stocks is much diff than high.

 

  So a 3% alert  on a $1 stock will trigger all the time, but rarely on a $100 stock.

   I know this can be done in code, but I like using the built in global alerts where possible.

   So , a price range filter in the $ and % alerts would be useful.

[ameritrade direct routing]

 That explains it .  Not a big deal, probably just leave it as it .

[ameritrade direct routing]

 My account has direct routing enabled, and I can place a direct routed  order using TOS, but Medved is throwing this error

 

[User defined color sets]

  ok .

[User defined color sets]

  Seems no way to use the user defined color sets, they dont show up in the dropdown .

[ameritrade logins not working today]

[ameritrade logins not working today]

  All of a sudden  can't log in to Ameritrade.   medvedtrader.com is also down.  

  Any connection ??

[FTT token on Binance , symbol ?]

 I bet.  I can handle it fine , just prefer not to capture 50 million data points I dont need.

 

 

[FTT token on Binance , symbol ?]

  Ok , I see it working now. 

 

 Binance feed is insane though, who needs all those transactions flying through .   Wouldnt want to have that running all day for btc and eth

[FTT token on Binance , symbol ?]

cant seem to get a quote on the FTT token , tried a few things including #FTT.USD

[DST issue]

 Source of confusion  seems to be the tag when CREATED.  Didnt realize  it could say DST or STD.   

 

 I cant be the only one  😐

[DST issue]

This was a 3:58 pm alert that got adjusted to 2:58 with DST checked.  Is this wrong, or do I not get your explanation as shown

 

[Waking from sleep, MT not responding]

  Still running perfectly since the rebuild.   When i get a chance , might try reloading the suspect  layout to see if its still broken .

[Waking from sleep, MT not responding]

 Since rebuilding from a blank layout, none of that problem can be seen .  Much more responsive overall.

Let's see if this continues .  If so , pretty clear there was some corruption on that well worn layout

[pass TEXT from scan to the Alert]

 Of course I'm already using that , and can't remember why I even asked this .  🙄

[pass TEXT from scan to the Alert]

  Looking to pass values/text from a scan to the alert system .  Seems a simple thing 😉

[Move MT to different monitor?]

 The backups  that are automatically made contain the layouts and their old positions.  Try restoring from a backup .

[Waking from sleep, MT not responding]

   Just sent a log after this issue cropped up again .

   Did some testing .   I closed and reloaded MT (same layout) , same problem.

   I thought I had narrowed down the problem to this DEXPOT virtual desktop thing I use, but sadly, its not the issue. At least as far as I can tell.

  

  I just tried a number of things .   Reloading.  Rebooting.   All these still had  issues  of various severity.  All displayed lagging in the way MT  responding to mouse and keyboard.   No error messages  or crashing was observed.

 

  The ONLY thing that 100% cures it (as in the past ) is going back a few days to another layout.  So I have to think  something is being saved internally to these bad layouts that is causing  this.   I seem to have eliminated external factors.

 

PS   Just tried this.   After loading the GOOD working layout from  a few days ago , I restored ONLY the  "CURRENT LAYOUT"   from the bad save,    Problem immediately recurs.   Did the reverse,reloading the   CURRENT LAYOUT from the known good save, and it was fine , once again.  This might help focus your debugging.

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

[Waking from sleep, MT not responding]

  I just reloaded that entire 'bad'  settings file , and it seems to be running ok.  Now I'm mystified.

  The only thing thats not the same is the DATA (quotes) which have been changed since that file was created. 

  Dunno,  some bad ticks got in there and were cleaned ??

  Any theories as to what could cause those not responding errors  that I get from time to time?

 

[Waking from sleep, MT not responding]

Didn't start a new thread  since it was the same actual problem. 

Yes , I should have sent the log,  would MT know that it's windows were hanging and log that ?  Thought you might be able to duplicate the problem with only the settings.   I assume you tried.

I'll try that reload of the bad settings, though I'm pretty sure I've done the equivalent  of that by rebooting and loading them (still fails) ,   then reloading an older set to get back to normal.

Since that issue , no problems at all. Sleep , wake, everything fine.   This is something that has happened a number of  times over the years, and it seems to be some random thing.    Only thing I do that's out of the ordinary is run  DEXPOT a virtual desktop program, that does some window manipulation that might aggravate something.

Using that for well  over a decade daily, so its pretty robust.

Curiously , sometimes, like now, running cleanly,  I get this in Task Manager for MT.    When that HANGING  problem occurs, I get that blast of many (all) windows showing in TM , as pictured in the first message.(42 ) .    Might be some clue to something.
