4:37 pm:*** krunch12b has joined us
4:38 pm:<subq> chat kicked off yet?
4:38 pm:<DanielX> wondering that myself
4:39 pm:<DanielX> didn't want to crack the first whip ;-)
4:39 pm:<subq> if it has i have one small bug report on 8.4.0
4:39 pm:<subq> when you set a color on VA for TPO chart
4:39 pm:<tuna> hows dynamic working for you dan?
4:39 pm:<subq> it always reverts back to yellow
4:40 pm:<DanielX> works perfect
4:40 pm:<DanielX> ah I only use rainbow and POCs
4:40 pm:<tuna> hmmm
4:40 pm:<DanielX> no VA/IB
4:40 pm:<DanielX> but ref lines will not stay put
4:40 pm:<LS_Chad2> subq...not seeing that....holding the VA color fine here
4:40 pm:<tuna> started diconnecting here
4:41 pm:<DanielX> close relauch IRT and the ref lines disappear
4:41 pm:<tuna> then got worse
4:41 pm:<subq> Chad i can reproduce it on mine i am using green and yellow, maybe it is that combo
4:41 pm:<subq> green for VA will never save
4:41 pm:<LS_Chad2> tpo based, or volume based?
4:42 pm:<subq> TPO
4:42 pm:<LS_Chad2> it reverts to yellow when you close / reopen chart?
4:42 pm:<subq> yeah opening chart now
4:42 pm:<subq> takes a while, loading data :)
4:42 pm:<LS_Chad2> did you save chart before closing?
4:43 pm:<subq> yep
4:43 pm:<LS_Chad2> hmm..export the chart def and send to me
4:44 pm:<subq> once it loads up i will
4:44 pm:<LS_Bill> it's retaining for me also
4:44 pm:<subq> my computer takes a terribly long time to load data
4:44 pm:<subq> i have a lot of data though
4:44 pm:<LS_Chad2> you must have lots of tick data retained
4:44 pm:<subq> ok computing now
4:44 pm:<subq> yep my VA reverts to yellow
4:44 pm:<subq> saving
4:44 pm:<LS_Chad2> k...send me chart def
4:44 pm:<LS_Bill> is it downloading ticks?
4:44 pm:<subq> you want export pre change
4:45 pm:<LS_Chad2> either way
4:45 pm:<subq> as yellow or saved as green
4:45 pm:<LS_Chad2> saved as green
4:45 pm:<subq> my VA(vo) stays as green
4:45 pm:<subq> it is only my VA
4:46 pm:<LS_Bill> subq, we have a few false starts with version 8.4
4:47 pm:<subq> chad sent
4:47 pm:<LS_Bill> it may be that you have a preliminary installer
4:47 pm:<subq> could be
4:47 pm:<LS_Bill> if you update from the final 8.4 at www.linnsoft.com/dl
4:47 pm:<subq> i grabbed it early
4:47 pm:<LS_Bill> you will get the latest
4:47 pm:<LS_Bill> I seem to recall that we have some trouble with the colors in an early installer that we corrected on release day
4:48 pm:<LS_Bill> we had some trouble
4:48 pm:<subq> chad btw, there is javascript that will copy stuff to clipbard per our other conversation
4:49 pm:<LS_Bill> subq, you can tell if you have an earlier release by looking at your user profile's "Build Date" and time
4:49 pm:<LS_Chad2> great...perfect
4:49 pm:<subq> where is that Bill?
4:49 pm:<LS_Bill> in the system status window
4:49 pm:<LS_Bill> click on main toolbar
4:50 pm:<LS_Bill> 9th button from the right
4:50 pm:<LS_Bill> sorry 8th
4:51 pm:<subq> ok
4:51 pm:<tuna> whats the last build?
4:51 pm:<subq> build jun 28 2006 08:15
4:52 pm:*** LS_Chad2 has left
4:52 pm:<tuna> bill whats the last build?
4:52 pm:<LS_Bill> one sec
4:52 pm:<Mike> 840
4:53 pm:<LS_Bill> that 8 15 a.m. build on the 28th was defective, it was replaced near end of day 4:30 or so
4:53 pm:<subq> i think tuna was asking the sate
4:53 pm:<subq> date
4:54 pm:<subq> ok
4:54 pm:<LS_Chadx> Jun 29, 10:35
4:54 pm:<tuna> k
4:54 pm:<tuna> yhx
4:54 pm:<LS_Bill> the 28th, then we updated it on the 29th
4:54 pm:<tuna> thx
4:54 pm:<LS_Chadx> gotta head out early today...few minutes...any questions for me?
4:54 pm:*** LS_Chadq has joined us
4:54 pm:*** fcat has left
4:54 pm:*** LS_Chadq has left
4:54 pm:<subq> i had one question chad
4:55 pm:<LS_Bill> also, I have a test release out there in the "fix" directory that contains some new "save as picture" features for testing
4:55 pm:<subq> will we see option to add button on VP charts?
4:55 pm:<LS_Bill> www.linnsoft.com/dl/win/fix
4:55 pm:<subq> so we can change timeframe
4:55 pm:<LS_Bill> add button?
4:55 pm:<LS_Chadx> there are buttons at top to change timeframe currently
4:55 pm:<LS_Chadx> what timeframe are you interested in?
4:55 pm:<subq> something other than 1m :)
4:55 pm:<subq> like a 15m
4:55 pm:<tuna> he wants a 15 min button
4:56 pm:<subq> goes 1,5,30
4:56 pm:<LS_Bill> I want a 13 button chad ;-)
4:56 pm:<subq> wouldnt mind a 5,15,30 instead :)
4:56 pm:<Mike> 14
4:56 pm:<subq> or just the ability to edit the setting
4:56 pm:<LS_Chadx> btw, you can just type the period, and hit enter
4:56 pm:<krunch12b> how bout button to switch from 24 hr chart to regular session chart
4:56 pm:<tuna> lotta scalpers use 13 min
4:56 pm:<LS_Chadx> go to VP chart, type 13-enter
4:56 pm:<LS_Chadx> you'v got 13 minute
4:57 pm:<LS_Chadx> 5-enter, 5minute
4:57 pm:<DanielX> ;-)
4:57 pm:<DanielX> better than buttons
4:57 pm:<LS_Chadx> for 13 prices, "13 tab p"
4:57 pm:<LS_Bill> seems like we had this discussion a few years ago for traditional charts ;-)
4:57 pm:<LS_Chadx> enter
4:58 pm:*** Christine has left
4:58 pm:<subq> but on candle charts we can add buttons
4:58 pm:<DanielX> yep
4:58 pm:<subq> thats why i was asking
4:58 pm:<LS_Chadx> yes, you can
4:58 pm:<subq> seems we would be able to add our own buttons on vp charts :)
4:59 pm:<LS_Chadx> would seem that way...but only so much time in my day ;)
4:59 pm:<subq> lol
4:59 pm:<LS_Chadx> buttons are an indicator
4:59 pm:<DanielX> build it and they will come
4:59 pm:<LS_Chadx> VP is not setup for indicators
4:59 pm:<LS_Chadx> completely separate framework
5 pm:<LS_Chadx> but will do some thinking on that
5 pm:<DanielX> how about the special requests I made and bugs I reported by email?
5 pm:<LS_Bill> one of the things that I have been doing with buttons in traditional charts is to enable single clicking trading from the chart
5 pm:<LS_Chadx> I would think just knowing you can type in the period and hit enter...should work pretty well
5 pm:<LS_Bill> a lot of this capability would be very useful if those buttons could be inside any of the specialty charts like TPO and VP charts
5 pm:<LS_Chadx> I gotta run guys...have a good evening
5 pm:<Mike> chad can you update us on yoru new adventures please? quickly
5:01 pm:<subq> that works but when you are click happy going to kb is slow :)
5:01 pm:<LS_Bill> at present, buttons are designed to work inside the traditional chart framework, as chad said.
5:01 pm:<DanielX> Chad!!!
5:01 pm:<DanielX> sheesh
5:01 pm:<LS_Bill> perhaps we can derive a way to hook them into other chart types
5:02 pm:<subq> this is just too weird its like this chart is possesed
5:02 pm:<subq> let me save and reopen
5:02 pm:<Mike> ie a ti pane maybe Bill
5:02 pm:<subq> it wants my single to be green instead of yellow
5:02 pm:<LS_Bill> give us another week, daniel, mike, and we'll be in a position to talk about new adventures, okay?
5:02 pm:<LS_Bill> did you update subq?
5:02 pm:<subq> yep
5:02 pm:<DanielX> no Bill I was not asking about that
5:02 pm:<subq> testing now
5:03 pm:<subq> i just saved
5:03 pm:<DanielX> none of my business
5:03 pm:<subq> shut down and reloading chart
5:03 pm:<Mike> ok thanks
5:03 pm:<subq> it just takes a while to open my charts like i said
5:03 pm:<subq> i want to put my data file in RAM
5:03 pm:<DanielX> I just wanted to know about the TPO bug I reported that has me spending 30 mins a day redoing my charts
5:03 pm:<subq> can i do that? :)
5:03 pm:<LS_Bill> Daniel, I heard from Eddy Ftrader this week
5:03 pm:<DanielX> oh!
5:03 pm:<DanielX> why because he lost the world cup?
5:04 pm:<DanielX> lol
5:04 pm:*** Christine has joined us
5:04 pm:<Mike> what he say Bill?
5:04 pm:<LS_Bill> yea, he's been watching the evolution of the IRT/ NinjaTrader stuff
5:04 pm:<subq> i bet it would load faster if i could store it all in solid state
5:04 pm:<DanielX> good
5:04 pm:<LS_Bill> and he says it looks exactly right to him
5:04 pm:<subq> ok that fixed it
5:04 pm:<DanielX> did alot of work/testing with Dan T
5:04 pm:<subq> should be some good business coming from the NT thing
5:04 pm:<DanielX> yes
5:04 pm:<subq> NT has some big buzz going with the NT/Zen feed
5:05 pm:<LS_Bill> re the strategy trading order stuff
5:05 pm:<Mike> Bill please talk to Jerry of AT
5:05 pm:<subq> word is out it is the fastest feed around
5:05 pm:<DanielX> right
5:05 pm:<Mike> real worried about it. no updates for long time
5:05 pm:<subq> so lots of signups on ninja/zen
5:05 pm:<DanielX> Bill there are two things I have noticed that we need
5:05 pm:<Mike> and I and IRT needs that sitting orders unfilled to be canceled.
5:05 pm:<subq> i wouldnt mind seeing IRT feed off zen-data feed
5:05 pm:<subq> but i bet they are pretty tight on their data feed
5:06 pm:<subq> not letting people really develop off it
5:06 pm:<LS_Bill> Jerry is full time on another job Mike, but he is taking care of customers as far as I know
5:06 pm:<DanielX> the "TR_PEND" and that would tie to NT5's "Order Status" command I believe
5:06 pm:<LS_Bill> ?
5:07 pm:<DanielX> NT5's DLL has an " Order Status" command
5:07 pm:<Mike> ok I g ive Jerry an email then
5:07 pm:<DanielX> this would feed back and be usable as a "TR_PEND" token
5:07 pm:<tuna> how about opentick feed?
5:07 pm:<DanielX> for pending order
5:07 pm:<subq> isnt NT 6 due out soon now
5:08 pm:<Mike> he said new version it fixed but no new version seen so I'm concerned, and thus unable to autotrade on IRT mac via AT managed
5:08 pm:<tuna> have looked at it at all bill?
5:08 pm:<DanielX> hope they don't mess it up
5:08 pm:<DanielX> I know a few people still using NT4
5:08 pm:<subq> i think quite a few changes from what im told
5:08 pm:<LS_Bill> yes, I am looking at opentick
5:08 pm:<subq> especially on the charting side
5:08 pm:<subq> we need someone to verify if opentick has good data though
5:09 pm:<Mike> what are two new feeds? links?
5:09 pm:<DanielX> yeah Mike buy a new Mac and technically you will be trading on a Mac albeit in XP ;-)
5:09 pm:<subq> i think opentick only charges exchange
5:09 pm:<subq> www.opentick.com
5:09 pm:<tuna> you volenteered subq
5:10 pm:<subq> yeah i will test it
5:10 pm:<subq> my order entry is through ninjatrader/zen
5:10 pm:<LS_Bill> it appears that opentick is going open source as well. interesting
5:10 pm:<subq> so no big deal :)
5:10 pm:<LS_Bill> I am testing it already
5:10 pm:<DanielX> Bill "TR_PEND" and "Order Status" ?
5:10 pm:<DanielX> yes no maybe so
5:10 pm:<tuna> are you gonna add opentick bill?
5:11 pm:<LS_Bill> I don't know what TR_PEND is? something you want me to add? what does it mean?
5:11 pm:<DanielX> yes
5:11 pm:<LS_Bill> pend for pending?
5:11 pm:<subq> if opentick's data feed is decent, i imagine quite a few people will jump on board
5:11 pm:<DanielX> add as pending order
5:11 pm:<DanielX> NT5 dll has order status capability
5:11 pm:<LS_Bill> IRT uses order status command now Daniel
5:11 pm:<subq> cant be any worse than IBs right?
5:11 pm:* subq runs
5:12 pm:<Mike> ib feed is great
5:12 pm:<LS_Bill> it appears that opentick is a tick by tick feed
5:12 pm:<DanielX> hmmm...does it report a pending order?
5:12 pm:<subq> i know a lot of people love it :)
5:12 pm:<LS_Bill> any order
5:12 pm:<Mike> i thought NT api did not give feed back to irt yet
5:12 pm:<LS_Bill> you have to setup the order status trading order with the right order id
5:13 pm:<DanielX> checking
5:13 pm:<LS_Bill> Mike, it does not feedback stop and target prices
5:13 pm:<DanielX> not sure I ever saw pending order inthere
5:13 pm:*** chard has left
5:13 pm:<LS_Bill> if you submit an order with an order id of X
5:13 pm:<LS_Bill> you can request order status on order x
5:13 pm:<DanielX> Mike I figured out a way to get feedback
5:13 pm:<Mike> ok neat
5:14 pm:<Mike> i like AT though if it gets fixed
5:14 pm:*** fcat has joined us
5:14 pm:<tuna> are you gonna add opentick bill?
5:15 pm:<DanielX> ok so we hav get order status
5:15 pm:<DanielX> can you add a TR_PEND token?
5:15 pm:<LS_Bill> I'm considering it. doing some preliminary work with it.
5:15 pm:<DanielX> PLEASE
5:16 pm:<LS_Bill> our business has grown nicely since we added IB feed and free Yahoo historical data, and low cost DTN historical server
5:16 pm:<LS_Bill> data costs are a barrier to using IRT it seems
5:16 pm:<DanielX> yes I would hope so...a few of us were only bugging you every week for a few years!
5:16 pm:<LS_Bill> it takes me a while to get the message sometimes ;-)
5:17 pm:<LS_Bill> not always but sometimes
5:17 pm:<tuna> data costs are going down it seems
5:17 pm:<LS_Bill> yes but everyone has to make a living somehow
5:17 pm:<LS_Bill> opentick is not exception
5:17 pm:<arno> Bill - do you know when you'll add the date/time from DTN/IQ to be able to draw candles correctly without having to refresh?
5:17 pm:<LS_Bill> they are building a customer base now, eventually they will offer a trading API
5:17 pm:<LS_Bill> and make money that way
5:17 pm:<tuna> yep
5:18 pm:<DanielX> sometimes because you're on the programmer side and not in the battle with the rest of us you think we talk alot of crap...lol
5:18 pm:<LS_Bill> DTN is still now sending me anything but hh:mm for trading time
5:18 pm:<tuna> they wanna be a broker
5:18 pm:<DanielX> thats besides the point
5:18 pm:<DanielX> Mike talks crap all the time
5:19 pm:<tuna> types or talks?
5:19 pm:<DanielX> yes what was the deal with the new DTN oil emini feed?
5:19 pm:<DanielX> I thought it was already in the feed
5:20 pm:<tuna> qm moved to cme
5:20 pm:<tuna> again
5:20 pm:<fcat> Any headway on my disappearing 1m charts Bill ?
5:20 pm:<DanielX> this is included inthe DTN Market Access just the same right or will our $12 go up?
5:20 pm:<tuna> philly data is a buck now too
5:20 pm:<subq> well i think the problem you run into is someone pays $125 for esignal feed
5:20 pm:<subq> they get charting with esignal
5:20 pm:<subq> of course it isnt as good as irt
5:21 pm:<subq> but they have to add irt at $40-70 as well
5:21 pm:<subq> so if we get a good feed for cheaper hopefully opentick
5:21 pm:<LS_Bill> fact, yes your disappearing one mnute charts should be fixed in 8.4, at least I was hoping
5:21 pm:<subq> it knocks downt htat $125 feed charge
5:21 pm:<fcat> nope...still here in *.4
5:21 pm:<fcat> *.4
5:21 pm:<fcat> 8.4
5:22 pm:<fcat> sheesh...I can't type
5:22 pm:*** chard has joined us
5:22 pm:<LS_Bill> fcat you still seeing it in 8.4?
5:22 pm:<fcat> yes
5:22 pm:<fcat> same
5:23 pm:<LS_Bill> darn, chad found a flaw that I thought might explain those symptoms, I believe that went out in 8.4
5:23 pm:<krunch12b> is there examples, or a manual somewhere on linnsoft.com about custom formulas
5:24 pm:<fcat> Yes I remember you and Chad saying you think you caught it
5:24 pm:<LS_Bill> fcat, are you running the 6/29 build?
5:24 pm:<LS_Bill> or 6/28?
5:24 pm:<fcat> how do I check again ?
5:25 pm:<LS_Bill> click on System Status button on main toolbar, 8th button from the right
5:26 pm:<LS_Bill> the button looks like an RT logo with a "check" icon. to denote "check" the status of RT
5:26 pm:<DanielX> Bill you will need to add that" Get Order Status" when submitting an order if TR_POS/TR_FILL = 0.
5:26 pm:<DanielX> just like you did the Get Market Position 5 sec delay
5:26 pm:<fcat> 6/29 Bill
5:27 pm:<LS_Bill> ok fcat, back to the drawing board I guess
5:27 pm:<fcat> :(
5:27 pm:<DanielX> and feed it into a TR_PEND
5:27 pm:<LS_Bill> feed what into TR_PEND
5:27 pm:<fcat> was afraid you were gonna say that
5:28 pm:<DanielX> what ever get order status sends back
5:28 pm:<LS_Bill> it sends back a text message
5:28 pm:<DanielX> as a pending order?
5:29 pm:<LS_Bill> e.g. "working"
5:29 pm:<LS_Bill> "submitted"
5:29 pm:<LS_Bill> whatever
5:29 pm:<DanielX> yes or pending
5:29 pm:<DanielX> ok we have to pick one for pending..working not needed
5:30 pm:<DanielX> becase working can be seen at TR_TARG and TR_STOP
5:31 pm:<DanielX> you follow?
5:32 pm:<LS_Bill> not completely
5:32 pm:<LS_Bill> you want a way to tell if an order is pending or not?
5:32 pm:<DanielX> so if I submit a sell limit or sell stop market order a 3-5 second delay will report my pending order into a TR_PEND token
5:32 pm:<LS_Bill> the initial order of a new postion for example
5:32 pm:<DanielX> y
5:34 pm:<LS_Bill> and only applicable when TR_POS is zero
5:34 pm:<DanielX> yes
5:34 pm:<DanielX> simplest way for now
5:34 pm:<DanielX> send it at the same time as you send the get market position
5:36 pm:<DanielX> this way we can put a TR_PEND into a ref line token
5:36 pm:<LS_Bill> that is a one shot thing done a few seconds after an order is submitted
5:36 pm:<DanielX> Pending
5:36 pm:<DanielX> right thats fine
5:37 pm:<LS_Bill> how would that interact with a ref line?
5:37 pm:<LS_Bill> it's just a true false value, pending or not pending
5:38 pm:<DanielX> right
5:38 pm:*** Christine has left
5:38 pm:<DanielX> if TRUE set TR_PEND at X
5:38 pm:<LS_Bill> ?
5:38 pm:<DanielX> the price I click on the chart will place the line
5:39 pm:<LS_Bill> sorry I'm not follow you at all
5:39 pm:<DanielX> ok
5:40 pm:<DanielX> if it's true I can have IRT place a re flineon the chart
5:40 pm:<DanielX> ref line*
5:40 pm:* jimbrowskii slaps X around a bit with a large trout
5:41 pm:<DanielX> I have to talk code!
5:41 pm:<DanielX> ok.....
5:41 pm:<LS_Bill> for (i =0; i < 100; i++) printf("hello?")
5:42 pm:<LS_Bill> speak my languague
5:42 pm:<DanielX> ok I want a line to be at my pending order
5:42 pm:<DanielX> we need a token to get it doen
5:43 pm:<LS_Bill> why can't you do that with a V# variable
5:43 pm:<LS_Bill> ref lines already work with V# variables
5:43 pm:<DanielX> because we're trying to avoid all if that!
5:43 pm:<LS_Bill> you are trying to avoid using features that already exist, so you can ask me to add features that do not ;-)
5:44 pm:<DanielX> u dont get it
5:44 pm:<DanielX> ok...
5:44 pm:<DanielX> u see how you added the get market position to occurs once every time we submit an order?
5:45 pm:<DanielX> so I would not have to manually hit a get market position order everytime I send an order?
5:45 pm:<DanielX> it's internal right
5:45 pm:<DanielX> so therefore
5:47 pm:<DanielX> if you send a get Order Status only id TR_POS =0 that reports a true or false we could use what comes back in a TR_PEND token and you can add a Pending ref line to the rest of them
5:47 pm:<DanielX> id=if
5:48 pm:<DanielX> what's so confusing?
5:48 pm:<DanielX> am I missing something
5:49 pm:<DanielX> sure I could manually do a V#n dance formula schedule etc..but we should not have to...should be background work internal to IRT
5:49 pm:<LS_Bill> I don't know what value to put into TR_PEND
5:49 pm:<LS_Bill> 0 for false 1 for true, is that is?
5:49 pm:<DanielX> the price click on the chart
5:50 pm:<LS_Bill> what price click
5:50 pm:<LS_Bill> what if the order was not submitted from a price click?
5:50 pm:<DanielX> when one clicks on the chart to select a price
5:50 pm:<krunch12b> you guys know all about the bell curve, please have pitty on us who are located on the negative side of the curve
5:50 pm:<LS_Bill> trading orders can be initiated in lots of ways
5:50 pm:<krunch12b> lol
5:50 pm:<DanielX> then it will be from a line
5:51 pm:<LS_Bill> I don't see the big picture I guess, I'm too far down in the trenches coding
5:51 pm:<DanielX> y
5:52 pm:<DanielX> but you can do it
5:52 pm:<LS_Bill> trading orders get inititated via schedules, via button clicks, via the trading order desk. some require mouse clicks, some don't
5:52 pm:<LS_Bill> you cannot say "use the price of the mouse click", since in the general case, there may not be a click
5:52 pm:<DanielX> right and what does NT5 send back from a get order status...only text?
5:52 pm:<LS_Bill> it's easy to set TR_PEND to 0 or 1
5:53 pm:<LS_Bill> a text description of the staus of the order
5:53 pm:<DanielX> no price?
5:53 pm:<DanielX> willing to bet a price is included
5:54 pm:<LS_Bill> why don't you issue the command and look at the message log
5:54 pm:<LS_Bill> that where IRT puts the response it gets back from NT
5:54 pm:<LS_Bill> first NT tells IRT the names of all of the orders
5:54 pm:<DanielX> ok one sec
5:54 pm:<LS_Bill> for some particular account
5:55 pm:<LS_Bill> then IRT asks for the status of each one
5:55 pm:<LS_Bill> with a text description

6:13 pm:<LS_Bill> ok
