When your web site refers to "native" Linux application.....is that a desktop application or a web interface?

I had not heard this before. @Ironbeam do you offer a linux desktop trading app?

So as it stands, there are two versions of Firetip. There is the original Firetip desktop app, which we refer to as Firetip v8 or "Legacy". This can be run natively on Linux as a desktop app.

Now there is Firetip X, which is the one promoted on our site. The iOS, Android, and Web-based versions have all been released, and you can trade from your browser on Linux. The desktop version is being released shortly and will include a native Linux app.

Hello,
I just discovered Ironbeam, I have several questions that I could not see in this forum:

1) Is it possible to trade with sierrachart and at the same time monitor the active position int the account through FireTip? if not, is there a way to monitor in realtime the current open positions and orders?
I like to trade with Sierra but if there are issues with the platform I need a second way to get out of my positions. Please don't consider Rithmic as an options since Sierra is dismissing it.

2) can you set up an account with sierra datafeed?

3) do you offer serverside OCO?

Thanks a lot
SAM

Hey Sam,

1. Yes, you could do this although it is not recommended. If you are trading on Sierra you should be monitoring your positions through Sierra. Firetip gets copies of the trades in realtime and will display your current positions. If you experience downtime with Sierra you can call our trade desk and we can immediately offset positions for you whether Sierra is functional or not.

2. Sierra does not have their own data feed. They have "Denali" which is a rebranding of the TT connection. We do not currently support the TT/Sierra connection. Most of our Sierra customer connect via CQG.

3. Yes, all Firetip orders are held server-side.

I apologize for the delay in response!

Everyone,

With Firetip(x) trading platform any plans to add:

1. Bid/Ask (market orders) volume indicator?

2. Delta (of Bid/Ask market orders volume) indicator?

3. Market Profile type chart (TT refers to as "Price Distribution Chart")?

Is there a roadmap for planned Firetip(x) enhancements?

1. Bid/Ask volume indicator: This is already in there. If you're having trouble finding it give me a call.

2. Delta (of Bid/Ask market orders volume) - We can add this for you no problem.

3. Market Profile type chart - I don't believe we are currently developing this but I've just added it to the list of future enhancements.

We really value your feedback on the platform and we can develop new features quickly. I'd love to chat on the phone if you have time, my number is listed below.

1. Bid/Ask volume indicator: I meant breaking out the contract volume On the Bid versus On The Ask. TT (Trading Technologies) has AVOL and BVOL indicators. ATAS combines it into one indicator (see below):

bid-ask-volume


(1) Is the contract volume on the Bid.
(2) Is the contract volume on the Ask.
(3) Is the Delta (difference) between the two.
