makincash Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Is there a way to make an order Anonymous in the Medved trade window for Questrade? You can do this in the trade window for Questrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 not at this time. are Anon and AON mutually exclusive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 I made Anonymous option available as part of special instructions. Right now if you select that, you can't select others. will be in next update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makincash Posted October 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Here are a couple screen shots I grabbed earlier today.. Sorry Forgot to post them. You can select ANON and AON. Bracket and Special Instructions are mutually exclusive thought Thanks for adding Anon!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makincash Posted October 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Also forgot to mention that the "Sp inst" box is not available (can't click the drop down and is greyed out) when the order type is Market in Medved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 I will make it so you can do AON and Anon, but as far as it being available for Market orders, not going to happen. Best I can tell you is if you select Anonymous in special instructions before switching the order type to Market, it will use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makincash Posted October 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Will give that a try. I was thinking about trying that last night as I noticed that it held when you changed back to Market. Is there a reason its locked up for Market orders? Also noticed, since order windows don't hold the settings you set you need to do it every time you launch Medved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 all the other special instructions are not relevant when Market order is selected and changing that would be way more trouble than it is worth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makincash Posted October 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 For some reason the setting keep reverting even without me exiting medved. Eg I set the share count (less then what I own for some acconts) and anon across multiple trade windows today and every once in a while the shares get set back to the amount I own and the anon flag is removed.

Jerry Medved Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 ok, and is the default in account settings set to default QTY to the account position? and sp instructions to include Anon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makincash Posted October 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 Quantity is set to Account position and Order settings->Default sp inst is set to none. I didn't close medved or the trade windows. Just randomly reset, pretty sure I have seen this a couple times over the last 2 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makincash Posted October 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 I have my trade window defaults set to use anon and market. But every time I launch medved I have to change back to limit and set anon then switch back to market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 Not seeing it here. What are the exact settings for the Questrade account on the Order Settings tab? What screen are you seeing the issue on? Trade Ticket? chart? DOM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makincash Posted October 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 My bad. I thought I had set all my accounts to anon for defaults. When I checked last time I only checked one account and it happens to be one of the few I don't have tickets loading for when Medved starts and the rest were not set. It is working. Sorry about that.
