QuoteTracker---Prices to double.

TD Ameritrade does not charge inactivity fees.. but there is a 100$ fee for Account closing. Now they even give the Thinkorswim platform for free

Quote from BSAM:

Do you know if TD Ameritrade charges non-activity fees? Thanks.
 
Quote from BSAM:

... It's just the principle of implementing a 100% increase in a product.....Any product. Plus, it just seems that TD Ameritrade is trying to force people to open an account. Something just doesn't seem right.
I agree with you 100% BSAM.

If QT weren't such a user-friendly product where you can easily create numerous technical studies on-the-fly I'd drop'em like hot potato and run over to Sierra charts ASAP.

How much will non-ameritrade customers have to pay after Sept 21?
Here's the email from QuoteTracker:

Get QuoteTracker for Free – Open a TD AMERITRADE Account Today

We want to let you know that soon the subscription price of QuoteTracker will be increasing. At the start of your next billing cycle, the cost will be $14 if you pay monthly, $70 for a 6-month subscription, or $120 for a 1-year subscription.
***
+ you will only get 10 days of data backfill if you pay for QuoteTracker, vs. 20 days of data backfill if you just open up an account (any type) with TDAmeritrade.

It's hardball marketing at its worst. :(

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.:)

Quote from BSAM:

I woke up this morning to a disappointing email from QT/TD Ameritrade advising me that upon my next renewal, my subscription would double. They say that I can get QT for free if I will open an account with TD Ameritrade. Just a heads up if you are a user and were unaware.

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.

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

Thanks anyway.
