Yes, thanks Jerry, you keep making some great improvements to your product, especially with the recent changes to your playback. I've sent you a couple of donations so far and you seem to remember that. You've responded to every note I sent and implemented some of the changes I suggested. You've...

Thank you very much for the link. I hate to bother you since you've already done me a great favor by posting the link. Did you have any trouble adjusting the times for the historical data from the hypertrader online downloader. No matter what settings I try with the Global Server, the data...

I'd like to set up to feed Tradestation with Qcharts for both historical and real time data. I've got the Metaserver Demo to feed real time data into Tradestation but in order to access historical data it would appear that I need to set up Metaserver Qloader. Another option I think might be...

Cdntrader, that would be nice if it's possible for a Canadian. When you say we can open a Canadian futures account would that mean that you could trade ES or SP Futures? I sent an email to MichaelD the Tradestation rep to see if he would post more information here. If I understand...

Does anyone in Canada use Tradestation? I've heard that they won't accept Canadian accounts but is there a way around that? Also are there any get togethers for traders in Ontario that are worthwhile? My wife would probably appreciate me being able to talk to some other people besides her...

I can get intraday volume with Esignal, see attached chart. I know that the CME only provides end of day volume for the SP Futures. I think Esignal simulates intraday volume using tick volume. I wanted to know if Qcharts has this intraday volume as well before switching to them.
