No idiot, we don't like the forced conversion over to TDAmeritrade ... not very good at paying attention, are you?
Exactly. And, if IB would concentrate more on their charting, indeed they would be very usable. I have never understood why IB hasn't fixed them once and for all. IB's biggest mistake over the past few years was not buying QT when the chance was there. The market seems ready for another provider to become available. This game TDA is playing is not good.
They probably are trying to monetize QuoteTracker which they have been unsuccesful. Now that they have Thinkorswim, I think QuoteTracker falls out of favor further more.
Not exactly true. I found this on an Aussie stock forum: I wish they would have been a bit more clear in the email. 1. the registration price is double for all billing after Sep 21, 2009. Registrations prior to that date will be billed at old prices until they come up for renewal 2. If you want to use another US Broker other than TD Ameritrade, QuoteTracker would have to be registered. Cannot use it for free. 3. for other datafeeds other than US Brokers, like subscription datafeeds or non-US sites, the free option still remains #3 applies to you, so if you are not registered now and do not wish to be, then you would still be able to use QT same as you did before. Or you can register before September 21st at the old pricing for the first period. I saw some posts on some AU message boards about it. Unfortunately, I am not allowed to post on public boards right now. If you happen to see any, please put up the above info. Sincerely, Jerry Medved QuoteTracker.com
Well that pertains to the Aussies certainly, but the point Jerry makes is that the free version will no longer be an option for US Broker feeds other than AMTD.
