    Great, I will install it and see how it works for me tonight.
    I use hardly any of the TS capabilities and just though it was a waste of money for me. Cannot beat free.....

  2. NOTE: QT charts the data that it receives throughout the day. Therefore, if you open the intraday chart at night, it will have no data. Once you run QT during the day, it will show data.

    There is a way to backfill the quotes, but IB does not provide the data needed for that. You can use IQFeed datafeed for QT to backfill IB symbols, but that is a subscription.

    Just FYI so you don't think that something is broken :)

    I knew there was a reason it was for free.
    It needs the back data. Otherwise it just starts in the air pretty much. I will see what the extra data for it costs.

  7. Yes. It will save up to 2 days of data if using an un-registered version. Up to 5 days for registered users

    In www.quotetracker.com is there a way to enable TICK TRIN other in the indicies panel.

    I would like to place the symbol in the portfolio and click to open a intraday chart.

    Is this possible? Any other way to see TICK TRIN other than top panel?

    Thanks for a great program and service.

  10. ryoubetteroff,

    If Quote.com is the index quote source in QuoteTracker, you can add TICK.NQ and TRIN.NQ to the index panel as user defined indices. Some other index sources have it as well, like Marketfeed and IQFeed.
