BillB Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Hello, I'd like to see the Watchlist and Ticker Tape functions from the old Tools menu of QT included in MT. I'd also like to be able to enter simultaneous Buy/Sell orders from multiple portfolios "linked accounts" at TDAmeritrade if possible. Thanks!

0 Jerry Medved Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 WatchList - You can add multiple watchlists in MT. A Watchlist is just another type of portfolio, so on Port Edit screen, click the arrow on the right side of the ADD button and select Watchlist. You then open the window same as any portfolio. Ticker tape - you actually use it for scrolling or just static? We plan to add a hybrid of the index panel and ticker tape, but were not planning to do the scrolling. Simultaneous buy/sell - you mean press one button and MT send orders to multiple accounts? That is not likely in the near future. However, you can open multiple trade tickets for same or different accounts now. Also, we plan to add a multi-order window where you can enter multiple orders (one per line) at the same time, then send them either with one click to send all, or with submit button next to each one. The plan is to allow account selection for each of those orders, so one can be to TD Ameritrade, another to IB, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BillB Posted May 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Ticker tape - I like to have it scrolling along the bottom of the screen even when QT is not visible. Simultaneous buy/sell - A multi-order/multi-accounts window would work great. The idea for also including multiple brokers in that window is interesting but having it work for multiple accounts with only one broker would be enough for me. Watchlist - I figured just adding another portfolio was the case just wasn't sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Geo Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Dear Sir: When do you think the ticker tape will be available? Thanks, Geo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jerry Medved Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Was hoping not to do that one. Not exactly a high demand item. Are you looking for an actual scrolling ticker tape or just something that can show the quotes in that format? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Geo Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 i use the tape mostly staticly, showing the ticker price info etc, even when the main displaies are closed/minimized. I can currently setup a watch list and display it using certain format available to generate similar looking to te ticker tape, but it will be minimized when along with the rest windows.

0 Jerry Medved Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 ok, so for your purposes, the only issue with what we have now is that you cannot dock it, leaving it visible when you minimize the rest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Geo Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 correct! You can setup the tape to be associated with a watch list or any portfolio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
