Level2 changes
In the last few weeks we've needed to implement some code changes to make us compliant with the LSE's rules on the access of Level2 data.

The following requirement is now in place:
You can only use 1 program on 1 computer to access Level2 on MoneyAM using a single username.

This means that you are able to view as many Level2 windows using any one particular browser, or program, that you wish, however you will not be able to use both Firefox and Internet Explorer at the same time (the same goes for using Quote Tracker or TradeSeeker at the same time as viewing it using a web browser)

If you find you're being logged off of MoneyAM's Level2 with the message 'you've logged on from another location' then check the above and make sure you're not running any other programs at the same time before reporting this as a bug.

Can we have 3 decimal places on the watchlist prices please. Wiggins was down 0.125 today, you show 0.12

Charts.

Would be good to be able to specify interval (eg. 5 min, 15, min, 30 min, 1 hr) for intraday and when date-ranging of no more than 5 days.

Thanks.

Also on charts can you put in the next marker above the highest price. In the case of the WGG 1 year chart the range should go to 20 with the highest price being betwen 18 and 20

When you do the portfolio it would be nice to be able to enter positions long or short and either purchase, CFD or spreadbet. Depending on which you chose different columns would be presented for input.

when charting, if I remove the grid, the scale dissapears also!

Would be nice to have the ability to 'Goto' a post in a thread. At times someone will say read post 33 when you are at 133. You can obviously use previous to go back a few pages but a simpler method would be to type in a post # and get to it in one step.

ipenning.... Good morning Ian.

I tried your instructions a couple of times, and even reuilt the desktop file, but to no avail. It looks like the new applet is installed. This is what Iget:-

having any luck with stopping double/triple lining thread
titles ? when window is tiled.

you know who dont have this problem .

also please,please,please remember my password
so many sites have different password formats which require different passwords,I cant remember them all.
and what with different upper/lower case requirements as well
it would be really really helpful.

bonsai:

On the list: there is an earlier post from ipenning on a workround on the password problem.

Hi guys

Streaming prices on stockwatch doesnt appear to be working this morning

When you try to see if there are any unread posts in certain threads it is hard to follow them across the line. Can you put lines in between or use alternate colours or even space the rows out a bit more

jeffmack' yes streamers were down but now back up. The new streaming software we put in last week seems to 'forget' to start the servers properly. The techies are on it.

Now up and running.

Hi
Watchlist seems to be picking up old trades. Trd vol and Cum vol don't match on stocks with no trades today.

Re: Jeffmaxk's post about the Portfoilio having the ability to short & CFD etc.

I second that in a BIG way!!!!!

Cheers

bully
So thats what you call MightyMicro....a server

March:

Watchlist seems to be picking up old trades. Trd vol and Cum vol don't match on stocks with no trades today.

What's happening here is that the last trade is being reported -- even if it wasn't today. So it's not actually lying, but it is a little confusing. Obviously it will tend to appear more on thin trading days.

Edit: One clue is that the Trd Time may be ahead of the current time today.

Could be that we should make it more obvious that it not a trade today (or last 24 hours??).

There seems to be a number of old news flags around LOG and BT.A as two examples.
Also I am still whinging about the look of the stockwatch screen. I keep going back to ADVFN as I find it easier to look at and absorb.
Could be what I am used to but it just ain?t easy on my old eyes.
Also when are you going to cache all the buttons?

I agree with you on the stockwatch screen i still prefer to use the other sides screen as they are bigger and clearer.

It is still early days i guess but it would be nice to change it soon.

Hope everyone had a good christmas....

All:

A word on changes to the software.

In making changes to the software, the team at MoneyAM decide what they want changed or fixed in the next version of the software and we go ahead and do that work at IST. We then test in-house before releasing it back to MoneyAM.

The net effect of this is that changes arrive in batches (except for any urgent "site down" type problems which have been fortunately almost unknown), so you don't see a lot of smaller changes continually being applied to the live site.

Please be assured that all your input is very valuable and is added to the list of things to be considered for implementation.

Martini: We older chaps should visit the optician's regularly as well . . . ;-)

And noted on the news flags.
