QuoteTracker To Be Finished End of 2011

Quote from desertcynlite:

TDAmeritrade is under the impression that not many people use Quotetracker. I have been working with the ThinkorSwim people trying to get features from QT incorporated into TOS. Now, this is what they say they are doing but, I have yet to see a useful response to my input or changes made to TOS. However, I continue to email and call them many times a week.

I recommend that anyone who wants to keep using QT do the same so they know there are a number of us out there. At least we might be able to buy some time before they drop support of it.

Trade Support Line at TDAmeritrade: 1-800-672-2098.

I spent a good year and a half calling on upper level management at TD Ameritrade to do something about their crappy "snap-shot" data feed that was nothing close to REAL-TIME.

They kept making promises over that time, about how things were going to get better. Finally, the executive assistant to the CEO admitted to me that it just wasn't going to happen.

It sure seems like they have put all of their "eggs" into supporting the Think or Swim platform. Unfortunately, that STILL has the same crappy "snap-shot" data-feed.

It's unacceptable.
 
Quote from iqfeed:

While our latest IQFeed release "broke" support for some 3rd party apps that aren't being updated to support our latest and greatest, we do have a workaround for QuoteTracker users. Just contact our support group and we can get it working with IQFeed. With this patch, there is no reason for QT to not continue working with IQFeed welll into 2012.

In addition, we now support CME group exchange fee waivers for Interactive Brokers customers so if you are trading through QuoteTracker with IB and using IQFeed data you qualify for exchange fee waivers, saving traders some money.

Creating a patch is good to know. Looks like somebody (you) still care about QT users. Good work.
 
It's good to see DTN and IQFeed showing concern for QuoteTracker users. I've used their datafeed in the past and it was always good.

I'm using TD Ameritrade's datafeed(including Level II) now (it's almost free) and I wonder if that will become unavailable to the patched QT once TDA shuts QT down. Does anyone know about this?
 
As you might tell by the replies in this thread, nobody seems to know much of anything regarding the continuation of QT. It is a mystery. Time will tell. That's what makes it so exciting!!!!

Good Idea but I think it would be more effective if we
contact someone in upper management who would be
concerned if enough people threatened to find another
broker if QT is dumped.

Anyone know the e-mail address of the CEO?
 
Even more effective would be a petition with 100 or more QT users signing. That might catch the CEO's eye. Up to this point it's only scattered individuals complaining, easy to dismiss from a financial point of view. Especially since the complaints seems to go no further than the tech support supervisors.
