Mike, are you able to get tt-data into multicharts and send orders from mc to tt?

Is there a mode that does not auto-center? I really prefer a static DOM.

Yes, there are like three or four different center options actually, including no centering.

I also prefer a static DOM. The ladder is static but auto recenters every few seconds with my current setting, works good for me.

Yes, MultiCharts includes/supports the certified TT-FIX adapter.

Here is another X-Trader video. This shows market explorer, trade book, and also shows all the panel options for each module including the DOM.

Mike, are you demoing the x_trader pro version? I use X_trader free and I only get 5 levels of bid/ask in the DOM..

Nope, am using free version. The depth is configurable up to 20 levels but I'm only getting 10 levels on CL it seems. Settings -> Properties -> Trading Tab -> General -> Market Depth.

LoL I am an idiot.. I have been using a DOM I made in excel to see 10 levels of depth on the ES.. I guess it pays to read the manual. Thanks.

Just to be clear there is no audio commentary?

Looks like really good DOM and order entry system.

Not sure if I missed it, but this has nothing like chart trader?
That is something I can't live without.

Thank you for doing this,

No audio, is simpler that way

I don't think it has a chart trader but I really don't know, I haven't opened a chart in it, I have MultiCharts for that and prefer to keep it that way.

So Mike, in essence you are saying that you will run 2 platforms in parallel, one for charting and the other for execution yes?

If so, would like to hear your thoughts on if you feel that would be a more solid way to trade rather than having only one platform doing all the biz.

I previously traded this way with by using ProRealtime (with stocks) and then executing my trades with my broker(s). Sometimes though I would encounter a problem with PRT that data would at times random times not display correctly, which when (what I call anomaly's) these happened, would kinda throw me mentally.

Anyhow, would love to see MultiCharts have a chart trader as well as a DOM in the versions to come which I believe DOM will be, but chart trader like NTs would be a super bonus. (imo)
