Jerry Medved Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 I looked and could have sworn that XJO was working with Commsec. Are you getting the quotes in MT for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClanTAN Posted June 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 hello Jerry, am only getting a single candle which covers the whole trading day , i have tried differant time frames with same result , the tick data shows up ok , am sending log file , maybe u can find something in that.regardz tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 You might not have backfill, but if you leave MT running collecting data, the candles should show. The quotes update in the portfolio, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClanTAN Posted June 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 XJO is running in a open portfolio every day from pre open to closing auction has been for months , through all updates to MT it has been the same i.e. if i open chart Xjo at the session open and open again any time during the trading day i always only get 1 candle. i haven't looked back through the earlier posts but iam sure u posted at one stage that MT can not chart data from Commsec for XJO ( why i do not know as Commsec gives me tick data 4 XJO all day ) i can open raw data and see every tick listed , maybe it is somehow linked to not getting volume on xjo also can not get L2 market depth on XJO but i think for L2 need a differant account for futures , . all other symbols i watch work fine for charting , market depth , raw data. i remember when i was using QT XJO charted fine ( can not remember what data source i was using at that time ) anyway it is not a big issue 4 me just would be nice to use MT for XJO as i am comfortable with MT now and would not need another program open my poor RAM is at its limit now. regardz tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 if I have to guess, your chart is set to US Equities timeframe. Try changing to Australian Equities. Also, XJO is an index, so you should enter it into the portfolio as $XJO:ASX Otherwise, when MT tries to backfill, it will not work. with $XJO:ASX symbol, MT is able to backfill with Google for both intraday and EOD and should properly default timeframes If Yahoo is selected as backfill source, then the first time you would need to select "Backfill As" and enter $AXJO:ASX as the Backfill As symbol, since AXJO is what Yahoo uses.

ClanTAN Posted June 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 hello jerry , your fix for XJO is working fine .. thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulDee Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 It would help if you could add TradingRoom Australia to your data source list to include Australian Indices as they are live and work fine with QT, since the CommSec indices don't update. $XJO:ASX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Commsec indices should update in the new version that was released earlier today. You tried? As for TradingRoom - we don't have Index specific stuff in MT right now and do not want to add sources that don't let you specify the symbols.

PaulDee Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Build 1.0.7996.2301? I will have to get that after market close but the release notes don't show any changes to index collection. Do you want me to send you what I have on TradingRoom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Yes, that one - forgot to add it to the list, but you are replying to the thread which talks about the fix TradingRoom - I know they do let you request quotes on specific symbols, but those pages are huge and it would not be practical to use them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulDee Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Sure, the OP asked for another live data source for ASX indices. http://www.tradingroom.com.au/apps/mkt/index.ac Yes, the html saved page is 87k but that is from the IE browser...if that helps.

Jerry Medved Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Yes, but that page doesn't let you specify symbols. That one is for indices only - refer to my earlier reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulDee Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Yes, it's all of them, which won't work if you can only parse specific data instead of a page full. However, it needed suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulDee Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 Appears to be working nicely now, thankyou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
