QuoteTracker---Prices to double.

Quote from MandelbrotSet:

Nobody in their right mind would trade with those preset limitations.

Thanks anyway.

Some of you whining about the $14 may be determined to show AMTD.

No idiot, we don't like the forced conversion over to TDAmeritrade ... not very good at paying attention, are you?

Quote from Cdntrader:

The fees are meaningless but this is one step away from totally exclusive use for td clients.

Time to get some alternatives ready I guess. Luckily IB TWS Charts are just about ready for primetime.

Exactly.

And, if IB would concentrate more on their charting, indeed they would be very usable. I have never understood why IB hasn't fixed them once and for all. IB's biggest mistake over the past few years was not buying QT when the chance was there.

The market seems ready for another provider to become available. This game TDA is playing is not good.

They probably are trying to monetize QuoteTracker which they have been unsuccesful. Now that they have Thinkorswim, I think QuoteTracker falls out of favor further more.

Quote from progressseker:

How much will non-ameritrade customers have to pay after Sept 21?

Quote from CET:

You can use QT for free if you can trade effectively with the limitations it comes with. I believe the limitations are: limited to 2 days of data on your QT charts; there will be AMTD ads; your backfill will be limited to the number of days that your broker provides, if other than AMTD; you may be limited on the number of symbols you can track/stream. Should you try this route, you can use the Prophet charts option within QT for longer time frame charts when you want to view more than 2 days. The Prophet charts provide all the time frames you need but are delayed 15 minutes.

I think you are not aware of the fact that after 9/21/2009 the free version will stop working.

I fully agree with you on IB letting QT get away; However, IB has the in-house talent to develop a very good charting software if IB would make it a non Java based stand alone program.

Not exactly true. I found this on an Aussie stock forum:

I wish they would have been a bit more clear in the email.

1. the registration price is double for all billing after Sep 21, 2009.
Registrations prior to that date will be billed at old prices until they
come up for renewal

2. If you want to use another US Broker other than TD Ameritrade,
QuoteTracker would have to be registered. Cannot use it for free.

3. for other datafeeds other than US Brokers, like subscription datafeeds or
non-US sites, the free option still remains

#3 applies to you, so if you are not registered now and do not wish to be,
then you would still be able to use QT same as you did before. Or you can
register before September 21st at the old pricing for the first period.

I saw some posts on some AU message boards about it. Unfortunately, I am not
allowed to post on public boards right now. If you happen to see any, please
put up the above info.

Sincerely,

Well that pertains to the Aussies certainly, but the point Jerry makes is that the free version will no longer be an option for US Broker feeds other than AMTD.

Some of what I am reading here speaks volumes about TDA management positioning and intentions.

This constitutes one of the worst betrayals of the original user base that I've ever seen.
