pescador Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hi Jerry, I have used QT for many years and have loved it. One of the reasons I like it so much, besides being an excellent charting software, is the fact that it runs natively (through wine) on Linux. I remember many years ago you wrote on the QT board, that as long as you are there, QT would support the wine/linux route. Is this still the case with the new Medved Trader? It would be great, because running two systems on one machine is an unnecessary division of resources, and nowdays I don't use Windows for anything any more. I have just heard that MT is now available as beta, and would very much love to try it. (my broker is IB) Could you please send me a copy of it? Thank you very much.. kind regards.

Jerry Medved Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 @pescador, I sent you the beta. I have no idea if MT will work on Linux with WINE. MT is written in C# and requires NET 4.0 Client Profile, so at the very least you would need that to be functional within WINE. MT uses a bunch of Win API stuff. Don't know if it will work. Please give it a try and let us know here. Thanks Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAH Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hi Jerry Been using QT for many years. Using globeinvestor now but used to use scotia until it stopped working. looks like globeinvestor might stop as well. It isn't functioning today so far. That prompted me this morning to see if there are alternatives and I just now came accross your site. Does or will your MT work with Globe Unlimited, Globeinvestor, or Scotia RT, and is there a way to import my current QT portfolios to MT. Is there a list of available sources somewhere?, and might i request a copy of your Beta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 RAH, Right now MT supports the following: TD Ameritrade ARCA - Level II ASX (Australia) CommSec (Australia) E*Trade (Australia) Interactive Brokers IQFeed (subscription - US and Canadian) Money.net (subscription) Stockwatch (subscription - US and Canadian) TradeKing (not released yet) Yahoo GlobeInvestor was delayed, so you can use Yahoo for those quotes in MT. As for real-time Canadian quotes, right now they are available from Interactive Brokers, IQFeed and Stockwatch. We will add others in the future. MT does not have any import of QT settings or Portfolios. However, if you have a comma separated list (or space or tab separated or one per line), you can just copy/paste it right into MT. I emailed you the beta instructions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustafa Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Hello, I am using IB and ThinkOrSwim. I would like to try MT beta. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Sent both. NOTE: Only regular TD Ameritrade accounts work. The "Orange" accounts, which are the ones enabled for futures and some advanced stuff, will not. If you use TDA and have an issue, refer to this: http://forums.medvedtrader.com/index.php?/topic/287-fyi-td-ameritrade-login-issues/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed you the beta instructions Hi Jerry thanks for the info. Got most of it working and columns etc setup the way i was used to with QT. One thing I don't see though is a way to display indices. Is there a way of doing that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Index panel is something we plan to add in the future, but is not implemented yet. You can add them to the portfolios or create a separate portfolio manually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAH Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Hi Jerry i tried adding TSX in the form of ^GSPTSE to the portfolio but it did not seem to work. I think that is the symbol used by Yahoo which is what i am testing it with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 MT Index format is to start the symbol with $, so it would be $GSPTSE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr PennyStock Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hi Jerry, I am a long time user of QT, I think about 13 years, and, I would love to use your beta version. I use TDA feed. I would like to take advantage to thank you for your great work on QT, wonderful piece of software. TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr PennyStock Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Thank you very much, and, for all the instructions, I will test tomorrow, because right now I am using QT, so I think it is better not use both at the same time.

Jerry Medved Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 actually, both at same time should be OK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTrader Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hi Jerry! I am still using 'Quotetracker' with data feed from Stockwatch.com. I would be willing to be a beta tester as I still love my Quotetracker and my guess I would love your Medved Trader even more! Will it accept data feed from Stockwatch? Look forward to hear from you, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
