ex_hacker202 Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 Just started happening - and raw trade data is looking odd too - I *think* this comes only from TDA? Warning about Ally - why (or did?) they cut off MT's access to real time quotes, and is it just me, or a problem with MT? Missing raw sales data for UAN stock, and odd symbol in volume column: Logged into Ally and went to real time quotes page - this is what I found - what the heck is the "Use Real-Time Quotes : Approval processed next business day." line mean and why was it checked by default?

Jerry Medved Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 realtime data - that is account specific for your ally account. I asked Ally to check your account. BF indicator on rows in raw data - that just means that the data came from Backfill. MT stores it as 4 rows per minute, so we indicate that the rows are from backfill to avoid confusion NOTE: You are logging into Ally which is why the prompt occurs.

ex_hacker202 Posted June 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) I spoke to an Ally rep, she said my account is enabled for real time quotes, but that's only when I'm using their website - I checked and it matched MT's TDA L2 data exactly for the stock I was looking at - but for some reason MT is not able to fetch real time data from Ally now, and this literally just occurred over the last 48 hours. But I just tried something and it worked - I went to Settings/accounts in MT, picked the Ally account, clicked on the "Verify and get accounts" button, a login screen for Ally appeared in MT, I entered my username and PW, got the screen below, clicked on Authorize, and boom, problem fixed. Seems like Ally incorporated some kind of new two step verification system or something - on Monday I'll see if I have to repeat the process every time I start MT or if this was a one time thing.

Jerry Medved Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 got a reply - your account should be enabled for real-time quotes both on site and via API. If you are still getting the notice about not having real-time quotes, please send me the log after the next time you get that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ex_hacker202 Posted June 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 Started MT this morning, no problems with the Ally data feed, didn't need to log in or authorize again - problem solved - thanks for looking into this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
