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.

I haven't used the $AM news page much before, but today I was watching out for the RPI announcement at 9:30. .... but it didn't arrive.

It appeared on other sites OK. What happened? and more importantly, what else is missing?

kaj,

I will look into this for you.

Ian

kaj,

What was the news article in question?

Ian

I lose the password/user after each shut down too, only here it happens.

BrianTrayda got the AFX announcement for me from somewhere else - see post 82 on today's traders thread:

AFX 9:30 on the button:
*UK MAY RPI-X UP 0.1 PCT FROM APRIL; UP 2.9 YR-ON-YR
UK MAY ALL-ITEMS RPI UP 0.2 PCT FROM APRIL; UP 3.0 YR-ON-YR

Sequestor,

This should be saved as a cookie on your pc and should be there when you restart your computer - it may have something to do with your security settings, but I will speak to our tech boys and see if they can shed any light.

Ian

Kaj,

there are 2 different levels of AFX, we have the lower level - as do our main competitor. I am assuming that this is the reason why it did not appear on the site, but I will look make sure and let you know.

Ian

Thanks Ian, I would have thought that the inflation figures are quite important and would have appeared on both levels, but I admit I know very little about the various news providers.

I will clarify the situation anyway kaj.

Thanks

Ian

The "lower level" is realtime news only for stock-related news. For news on the economy and general news (e.g. the war in Iraq) it is delayed. The "higher level" is realtime for these items too.

As has been said many times before, MoneyAM desperately needs a proper realtime news feed, whether by AFX or someone else...

Thanks Kayak. I think I agree with you.

What is the point of subscribing to only the lower level, reading company announcements whilst being oblivious to major economic events?

guys,

thanks for the feedback

Ian

Level 2 on MMD for instance is showing 2.25 - 2.75, but the lowest MM on the offfer is showing 3 and the highest on the bid is 2.5.

The real spread is actually 2.5 - 3.

haystack; getting MMD refreshed. By the way the MM's are moving it up!

M

Yes. Probably playing games again.
