  1. Retirement is way too boring. As for DOM in the new platform, it is something we will consider doing after the initial release

    Jerry, I'd like MT to have the capability of display same indicator with multiple different timeframes on one single chart. For example, display Full Stochastic for 5 ticks, 20 ticks, 50 ticks, 100 ticks on 5 tick chart. I believe many of the trading software already have that feature.

  4. This has been happening for some time(months and years) now don't really know how to solve this. Every few minutes i would get "Error:" ,"Error: connect failed" and "Restarting". Need somebody who knows how to solve this. So i would have to manually connect to the ameritrade.02.streamer.com. It's gotten so bad that i used to just use IB for my quotes but i use a lot of charts and it takes away from my limit of 100 quotes for IB.

    I have the latest version with the patch. Using qt with tda streaming data.

  5. that just means QT failed to connect after multiple attempts. Assuming that it works some of the time and then fails, this could be:
    * if you have multiple apps connecting to their datafeed with the same account.
    * If you are connecting to the net via proxy or something else that may interfere ro block the connection

  6. I had this happened to me several time but never often like yours. Slow wireless internet connection or loosing connection maybe, If that is what you are using. (wireless)

  7. Thanks for the help and suggestions.

    @j medved I was running the thinkorswim platform alongside QT. I had closed the thinkorswim platform after you have suggested it could be other apps connecting with same data feed same account.

    I am pretty sure i am not connecting via proxy don't even know how to use that, heard of it though. This is a computer i use at home and built my self.

    It still shows "Error:" ,"Error: connect failed" and "Restarting". Even so as i am typing this. Has happened atleast around 4-6 times already. It was working decently yesterday with just a couple of errors restarts. :(

    It does connect then a few minutes later it retruns those errors.

    Also could it be because i open QT before the market starts i had opened it at 6:30 CST. But most of the errors occurred after the market bell opening.

    How do i join your beta program for medved trader? Would like to use that and see if that helps me.

    @samiotis

    my computer is connected with ethernet cable. Also using comcast cable internet so it's not that(wireless). I used to have no problems awhile back like maybe 2 years ago. Don't know what the problem is.

  9. If you look at the attachment on my original post that is exactly what it looked like.

    Saying that seems like restarting the program worked it has been error free since the last time i posted. Will update if anymore problems.

    update: just had an error again.


    But wait there's more! one other thing about Quotetracker that's been going on for some time also. I still love QT though nothing better that i have found for charting.

    When a stock gaps overnight/morning that particular stock does not intraday data ex. MAKO It's just blank and with yellow volume bars but the pressure thing moves. I have tried clearing the chart data but it still doesn't work.

    The attached picture is what i'm talking about.

  10. @dontevergiveup

    We don't have a beta program for MT yet. will soon

    As for QT blank chart, go to OPTIONS/Edit Preferences menu, CHARTS tab, MISC sub-tab and set the Spike Filter to 100% (upper right corner)
