the total number of Level I quotes being retrieved cannot be more than 100 (or whatever the max on your account is) regardless of # of windows being opened to get the quotes. That also includes the API, so if you have 3rd party apps connecting, those quotes count toward the max

MT supports hundreds of days on the charts, depending on datafeed. For forex, IQFeed would provide the most data by far. Otherwise, only if you have Interactive Brokers account.
If your broker has an API, let me...
Well, QT is dead. Medved Trader is the QuoteTracker replacement :)
Right now we support IB and IQFeed for forex (since I think that is what the question is about), but willing to add others - have a few on the list. Just need to find the time
Regardless of whether or not you stay with TD Ameritrade or get another broker and continue to use TDA for options and stocks, keep in mind that you can call them and negotiate the commission. For 10 to 15 trades a day you should definitely be able to knock it down
If you will be using multiple...
if I told you, I would have to kill you :)
Just opened the browser Development tools (CTRL+SHIFT+I), then loaded the page and looked for where the data was requested. The page loads a ton of stuff but usually the data requests are relatively easy to identify. Been doing it for 18 years, so it...

Gets IBM option chain for July 22, 2016. I didn't look too deeply but there are...
TDA'S current API does not have access to scan results and as of right now it is restricted to high volume or high net worth clients. Basically, the API does not have TOS specific functionality. Hopefully both will change in the not too distant future.

@Daal - TWS supports sooooo many different order types and flags on their orders... we don't support all, though do support the main stuff. Not sure what "hidden order" refers to. If you mean Iceberg Order (or also called Reserve order by some) where you place a 10,000 share trade with a...
@samiotis - Importing Indicators - no, can't. Charting is handled way differently in MT.
MT doesn't have Paintbars yet :), but even so, that is not likely to happen. Parsing out and converting indicator names and the way stuff is handled in QT to the way it is handled in MT would be a large...
TD Ameritrade is finally killing QT. It will not be able to connect to TDA servers after September 1. They have been calling the clients to notify. So if you have not updated to MT yet, now is the time :)
