TT X_Trader 7.x Vs. TT 6.x

Are you experiencing slower response when you are trying to delete existing orders and also placing multiple orders on MD after upgrading to TT 7.x?

It seems especially true when trying to place with several mouse clicks multiple orders or when you are trying to delete multiple limit orders placed at the same price.

My hardware setup is fully compliant (and exceeds) with TT hardware specs:

Anyone trades with TT 7.x w/ XTAPI 7.1.7 package 119 (the latest released last December)?

Out of curiosity, why didn't you keep the prior version on a different computer and use it if the new TT 7.x acted quirky ???

Yes, I use the latest API (v 7.1.7.36.119) to link TT data to Excel for real time analysis; however, I don't execute orders through the API. I'm not experiencing performance issues.

Good question!...but my access to TT 6.x has been disabled after the upgrade to 7: they want to switch all the users to 7.x.
 
Bernard,

What issues are you experiencing with xtapi 7.1.7?

Is it slower or less reliable than 6x? Are you loosing orders or fills?

Simply slower, no missing fills; sometimes its happens I place several orders with single clicks and if I then try to remove all the orders at the same price level, 1 order remains on MD...(again, sometimes..)

Are you talking about an application you developed using XTAPI or XTrader?

If anything, xtapi 7x should be much faster for prices, orders, and fills. Stability was a problem in the earlier versions, but they have been ironing out all of those that they find.
 
I am glad I noticed this thread. I told my buddy not to switch to version 7 for now, he's sticking with 6. Thanks for sharing everyone.

P.S. Bernard- sorry about the delay on NT question. I have never used TT pro, just seen some screenshots and have talked to others whom have used it. I use NT for trailing stops, which you can't get in X Trader basic without the plugs-in, which I don't trust.
