selsyn Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) I cannot get any data displayed for column "Mkt Cap" (Market Capitalization), and column "Prev Vol" (Previous Day Volume) in Medved Trader. I tried both TDAmeritrade and Tradeking data sources, as backfilling. However, those 2 columns work perfectly in QuoteTracker. Do they work in Medved Trader ? If not, please fix it ASAP.

Jerry Medved Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 not all sources return data for all fields. TD Ameritrade does not return for those. As for TradeKing, the regular TK datafed does (both fields). The MB Trading one does not, and that is the one you are using. In general I like the MB one better but there are some fields that are not returned by it. I did send out an inquiry to see if maybe we can get that. Also, I just emailed you about your account...

selsyn Posted August 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Those 2 columns are filled out perfectly in QuoteTracker, with TDAmeritrade-Streamer data source. I am using TDAmeritrade data source with Medved Trader, and those 2 columns are empty. This looks like a bug in Medved Trader. Please fix it ASAP.

Jerry Medved Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 QuoteTracker got that data from a completely different source, regardless of which quote source was selected. We do not have access to that source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayR Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Would that hold true for Vol % also because it's not filling in either and is very useful to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Yes, though there is a workaround for Vol %. That column needs AVG VOL, which is not returned by many datafeeds. However, if you open a historical chart, which triggers Hist Backfill, MT computes the AVG VOL. If you need it for the whole portfolio, you can just hit the HIST BACKFILL button on the portfolio window once a week or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayR Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 That works, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
