ydfah Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Is Yahoo still a legitimate quote source in MT? I'm trying to use it in a watchlist for futures quotes since TDA doesn't have them. I selected Yahoo as the quote source with a 30-second refresh rate, however it will retrieve the quotes only when I manually refresh them, it will not refresh them automatically every 30-seconds.

Jerry Medved Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 TDA does have futures. Yahoo does work. but make sure you use MT symbol format. in MT yahoo defaults to us equities timeframe as far as auto refresh. to change, click where it shows the time on the portfolio on the status bar and select CME GLOBEX as the timeframe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As to the CME GLOBEX, I made the switch and the auto refresh still doesn't work. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
