Backfill All - that depends on the backfill source. It should be enabled for the defaults. Did you change it? 60 days on intraday - assuming you got the patch, go to OPTIONS/Edit Preferences menu, CHARTS tab, MULTI-DAY sub-tab and increase the max # of days there to 60

Bxb - check the URL I gave using IE browser on the machine having the problem

Can you do Windows Update to get latest updates for IE? Or update to IE 8 or 9? that will most likely fix the issue

No. Login works regardless. Try going to this URL using IE browser (specifically IE, NOT firefox, chrome, etc) https://apis.tdameritrade.com/ You should get a page about the document you requested not being available (that is not a problem). The thing to check is if you are getting any...

Catoosa, I am not seeing any issues logging in with TDA. Using it myself

LOL. Thats probably because there is nobody who knows how to turn it off.

are you sure the quotes in TWS are real-time? If they are delayed, then they would only show in TWS, not QT.

try clearing the data on one of the symbols that is not working (right click menu) and see if: 1) a quote comes in after you clear 2) if updates start after that.

the update being referenced is the one posted by ydfah at: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=213476&perpage=30&pagenumber=6

Then you would be SOL. However, IB does not generally change the API in ways that would break backward compatibility. The current QT implementation for IB has not changed in years.

you don't. the patch is a zip file, so you just close QT, then extract the contents of the file into the existing Quotetracker directory, overwriting existing files. Then just start QT same as you always did. It would not impact your settings.

Just go here: https://www.quotetracker.com/qtdb/regmaint.asp and cancel it. that will get you a refund of the unused portion, then just get the update posted on the other thread :) http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=213476&perpage=30&pagenumber=6

That is really generalizing it. ALL software has bugs. "Filled with bugs" is extremely subjective, yet you are stating it as fact. That is plain wrong. So is your claim about incentives. Developers that have a stake in the software (own it) have a huge incentive in fixing the bugs. It...

Its your ISP. the site is up

Yes. In your situation I would not count on the XP firewall. So it would just be an issue of either living with the performance issue or see if another product would be able to give you better result.

I was using AV, but not the software firewall at the time. The features of the software firewall would not prevent the malicious code from compromising your system. It could prevent the malicious code from communicating with the outside world though, which it would need to do spread, or to...

sorry, misread it :) Theoretically, yes, AV/Anti-spyware software "should" block it. However, that is not a sure thing. I had my PC get infected even though I had up-to-date AV running

Yes. 3rd party firewalls would block outgoing connections based on various rules. Like from apps that the firewall does not recognize for example, or on ports that you did not enable. That capability comes at a price - performance as you noticed. Some are better about it than others. I...

Yes, some modems now act as a router/firewall (Verizon FIOS for example) Basically the software firewall offers both inbound and outbound filtering where as the hardware firewall such as the one that comes with your router (including the ISP provided one) usually just blocks the incoming...

is the computer in question used exclusively for trading, or for general web browsing and other software as well? Do you have a router or is your computer connected directly to the cable/DSL modem?
