  • Need a new option on new livecharts - real simple

    The new version is starting to work better for me now. I figured out how to set the chart size and line spacing to precisely match the old version - thanks for your help with that.

    I would like to ask for a feature:

    On the Chart window could you add a right mouse menu with an option to remove all drawing objects?

    That would save me so much time. The older version was very quick for doing this.

    Jay - is this a possibility?

    When trading I need to be able to do this quickly vs line by line.

    Besides it would be a nice enhancement.

    Thanks much.

        Hi Random,

        We are looking into this enhancement. There are some other items we need to address first, but this is certainly on the enhancement list.

            Random,

            This hasn't been scheduled into a release yet, but this is on the list of possible future enhancements.

              Jay please don't forget this one. It should be really simple but would really add some value.

              Secondly the new version takes so long to load. What are you doing to fix that?

              Thanks

                Thanks random for the follow-up. We haven't forgotten about this; its just we had some other higher priority items we needed to accomplish first. We finishing up the testing on the changes I mentioned in my dev update, and we should have that new version released beginning early next week. After that, we'll head into another iteration of LiveCharts. One of the beginning parts of that process is looking at all the requests and suggestions submitted by clients.

                Regarding the download time, the applet size is bigger than the legacy LiveCharts, because there are a lot more integrated components. Originally, the LC 2.0 applet was in the 4.5Mb range, but before its release we got it down to around 3Mb. At this point, we believe this is as small as the applet can get. The upside to this is that once that 3Mb is downloaded and stored to your local /Temp, this doesn't need to be downloaded again (unless you clear your Temp folder or when a new version comes out.)

                We do have it on our list to try to speed up the login process from Quote.com to the LiveCharts servers. There does seem to be some inefficiencies in there that we can gain on.
                Regards,

                  just a few IMPORTANT things that obviously have been forgotten:

                  1.
                  why don't you make it once again possible to extend the livecharts window beyond the size of the screen? (a width of about 2000 or so - like it used to be at the old version until last december or so). this was one of the REAL GOOD features - why has it been removed?

                  this cannot be such a big problem - absolutely not. i want to see the entire session on the one minute chart - with a decent space between bars.

                  2.
                  i still do not know what the "all sessions" button is supposed to?

                  i mean cme e-minis: enter ES M8 or ES M8=2 - push this button - NOTHING happens - or what am i doing wrong?

                  3.
                  why isn't it possible to set the clock to NY time? again - this cannot be such a big problem.

                    another bug:

                    volume (time and sales window - detailed quote) is not correct for cme e-minis:

                    ab
                    es
                    nq
                    mc
                    ...

                    for example:

                    ab (russell 2000 mini):

                    correct volume at the moment is about 12,000 lots.

                    new livecharts:

                    ab m8: 198K

                    ab m8=2: 0
