Well, two things happen to me. 1) I accidentally close a window, then have to recall the type of formatting it had, and reload it.
2) I'm on the wrong window when typing a symbol and it overwrites the 'perm' symbol that's there. ES, $tick, whatever.
Don't see any downside to optionally (per window) asking if you really want to close/modify the symbol. You can probably limit the query to just those two, as any other change would most likely be deliberate.

Any chance of adding this protect feature in your spare time
-
Just had ameritrade feed stop streaming , for some reason. but didn't get any alert from MT about it.
I thought you had some mechanism to warn the user.
-
Tried charting $ADD , since it can backfill, but not seeing negative values. Is this some issue with THEIR server?
-
Ok , will try that, This is not a new issue, IB been doing this for some time.
-
Mentioned I tried BOTH timeframes, CME GLOBEX and CME GLOBEX Regular Hours. Same issue on both .
Didn't think the data that is loaded would change anyhow, only whats displayed .
-
just a 1 minute chart. IB data. Globex (tried both settings). 323,000 bar Sunday night 6pm.
I didnt want to try clearing ALL data since backfill in only 5 days. Still usually 3 or 4 days clearing solves most of these problems. not this time.
-
Any idea why the ES contract shows a 300,000 volume first bar today, after the holiday break? Something wrong with the holiday file maybe?
Cleared and backfilled a few times.
Mostly care because it throws off the vwap calc, but just noticed setting max trade size to something large overcomes the issue for that.
-
Just got back to this . Ok, wasn't setting as default. Assume will work after that.
-
Ok, like I said, been using it for months, 1st issue. Wasn't sure what the prob was, just happ to luck out and unclick tick stream after trying a few other things.
Poss for MT to detect this, and notify user? Else they will be very confused.
-
Strange prob today. Noticed clear/backfill 1 day caused bad chart quotes in all symbols, due to L1 quote reverting to yest close before back fill
Then , cant get ANY L1 quote on ameritrade (all stopped) though other fields like bid ask work. Turned off stream tick quotes to fix.
First time I've seen this issue
-
Thought it was only between sessions, but just had it forget an add of the Volatility col without a restart.
I just saved off a layout for options, but think it should be saving the last used layout automatically as done per other tables.
-
maybe manually select that bar and tell MT to ignore the volume? the prob is, it causes displacements (10-15 bars depending on the vol setting and extra volume) in the way the volume charts are drawn .
-
keeping with the data theme , every rollover, the volume charts get totally whacked, due to volume discrepancies between total volume and what the bars add up to . so you get this big ugly high volume bar at whatever random time you backfill the chart.
is there no way to filter this out so it doesn't hose the chart?
-
I notice many new issues don't backfill properly from Ameritrade. TEAM a recent example. Only get one day. Is this an issue with their servers?
-
Got it. Nice.
-
saw this setup
Can't figure out how he gets all those tools to display .
-
Not even sure what double clicking on an option line is supposed to do, but trying it throws an Unhandled Exception box every time.
See if you can duplicate.
-
Yeah, sorry, I know I could have explained it better.
This is where I think Im seeing this most often. Calling up a symbol that isn't already in an open portfolio. Symbol loads, L2 populates, but the L1 quote that feeds the chart and displays on L2 Box does not update. So whatever that connection is, is not completing for some reason. Too many quotes maybe? I don't get an error message but not sure you would display that .
Happens kind of rarely, but I've seen it a couple a times a day lately. I'll try to nail down the exact sequence of events next time I see it.
-
Noticed this quite often lately, that when changing symbols ,L2, and L1 price feed doesn't come up clean, price doesnt update, even as L2 prices do update .
Relog from the sources screen on dashboard fixes it. Not sure what the issue is, maybe something on their end?
-
Ok, I thought I'd tried INSERT to add a symbol on a chart page, and that it didn't work. But it does. So deleting and adding a new symbol that way works well.
-
Drag and Drop when in Chart view, doesnt work. To change/add symbols, you have to drop into port view, and back again
Would ne nice to be able to delete , and d&d without doing that.
-
ok ,great
-
Yep, that was it. Was this just added, because I didn't make any change.
Add an exception list? else Tick will never work correctly.
Searchable database

Just happened to think of this . Have you considered making the database searchable?
ie Volume spike in the last 10 minutes, that sort of thing. I know all the data is there , so other than the cpu overhead (which could be throttled) , would be a cool feature.
