    IB; Biggest Possible Improvement?

    I guess they could create a new record for sending LAST+HIGH+LOW. Would have to always send it if the criteria for HIGH/LOW sending is met, even if LAST did not change from the previous quote

    IB; Biggest Possible Improvement?

    though conceptually a good idea, in practice, this would be too problematic for IB to implement. Looking at this from the programming point of view: 1) High/low for charts is dependent on the charting package as well as user selected settings on the charts. You may be viewing 5 min charts...

    Question about Quotetracker

    achilles28 did not seem like that standard of a feature to us - the level of detail needed on EOD charts is inherently different than on intraday. The way the data is handled is way different. Did not want to devote the time to it when it was not that thought after of a feature. Other...

    IB Suggestions & Improvements

    IB data is not tick by tick, and IB has never claimed it was. There is no way to get 100% true tick data with IB's datafeed and I do not believe that there are any plans to change that. As for accuracy, it depends on what data you use and what you use it for. If you are trying to generate 1 min...

    Question about Quotetracker

    1) no, not yet 2) intraday charts - 10 days. Historical (EOD) charts - whatever is provided by your datafeed. Can be decates 3) Trendlines drawn on historical charts cannot project onto intraday. You can set QT to handle the TL as not unique to the chart, in which case any trendline you...

    The most popular IB front-end

    NOTE that the link you gave is for Freelance tools and does not include commercial tools such as Medved QuoteTracker, Ensign, Sierra Chart, and others. I think I can safely claim the largest number of IB clients with QuoteTracker. However, that is a bit too broad. ButtonTrader would be...

    bearmountain - there are a few delayed sources, but they are not very good. For example, you can use Scottrade for free streaming quotes with QuoteTracker. register for free at https://www.scottrader.com/agreements/register.asp (You do not need to be a client. Just need a US address). Once...

    Basket charting software

    You can do that in QuoteTracker by creating a portfolio with the symbols in question. Specify either a fixed # of shares or varying # of shares owned for each symbol (if you want to weigh each symbol differently). QT will then show a total line for the portfolio. You can double click on that to...

    Medved QuoteTracker a resource hog?

    Trader99, I am quite sure that would not be related to the topic here. Email QT support and indicate the following in the email: 1) QT version 2) TWS Version 3) If the quotes update in TWS 4) the connection color in QT

    How Many Real Time 10-min Charts Can We Have Open Simultaneously Before Problems? Ib?

    most people do not use IB to open lots of charts, which is probably why you are not getting any replies. For that, they use something like Quotetracker, which would handle that fine, as long as you did not try to overload the charts with a dozen indicators on each

    Medved QuoteTracker a resource hog?

    Kicking, we run multiple versions of QT side by side with identical configuration specifically to compare performance, memory usage, etc. We have not seen any issues with the current one. You have given absolutely no info about how you are running QT, or even what versions you are...

    Medved QuoteTracker a resource hog?

    Kicking - "consuming a whole lot more resource" is hardly fair either. It is not enough of description to identify the problem. Would need to know specifically what the issue is - CPU usage, Memory usage, GDI or USER objects, Handles, etc. Which version are you using? There were some...

    Medved QuoteTracker a resource hog?

    if you have 256M of RAM, I would be surprised if your system felt snappy with or without QT :) First thing - you really need to increase the amount of RAM. To help tune stuff further, would need to know much more about your system and how you use QT. The difference in how QT is used from...
