I see a lot of questions about Autospreaders, what they are and how they work. I thought the first 10-15 mins of this gave an excellent overview of this, and from the people known to have the best autospreader in the industry. The rest of the presentation was very person/question specific but that is to be expected with an "Ask my Anything" format.

A little surprised that 2 years after launch there's still XTrader functionality that is "coming soon".

Hello @SMCJB. Thank you for the kind words regarding Autospreader. Are there any features in particular you're looking for in the TT platform?

Thank you-

Hello Patrick,

How does "TT Desktop" handle multi-core CPU´s? I´m not an IT expert but as far as I can see "TT Desktop" makes use of a multi-core CPU. So as I´m going to buy a new PC, regarding the CPU cores, is it: the more the better?
In the help library I couldn´t find anything regarding the CPU recommendations.

Thank you!

Hello @Malvolio,

Each window runs in a separate process, which can be distributed across multiple CPUs, so the more, the better.

If TT will add the market replay if someone will write in the future a manual about ADL programming and to add in the T&S the best bid and best offer in a separate column. About the average position example: short at 1400 1 lot short again at 1300 2 lots New average position 1333.33 the market goes to 1200 bot 2 lots at 1200 is it possible the red square to come back to 1400 i still having a 1 lot short @ 1400 LIFO instead of FIFO feature ?
Regards

About TT the best support ever.

Treasury ICS prices are displayed in terms of net change from the 2:00 pm settlement price.
Can TT Web display them as non-reset (back adjusted) contracts?

Hi there,
Am using TT X Trader Version 7.17.67.10
Have used Neon/Easy Screen in the past and it had a great few tweaks on the volume profile on the Dom.
The most important was the ability to dynamically display the volume profile depending on what was onscreen.
At the moment, TT only has manually set limits (Volume at Price-Bar Quantity) that displays volume profile size based on this setting. Works ok but in a fast market with price moving in new areas, the fixed limit is a huge problem as you have to go in and manually change the bar quantity size which clearly doesn't work too well in fast markets!
Is there any way that the volume profile can be more dynamic, and update it's bar size relative to what is being displayed on screen rather than having fixed bar quantities? Hope that makes some sort of sense.

regards,

Keab

Thank you for the question. On the TT platform you may reset Volume At Price (VAP) on MD Trader. This is not available on X_TRADER. Please see this release note from November 12, 2017 for details.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Is there a video anywhere to demonstrate what you mean, or a demo to look at? I'm not talking about resetting volume at price to zero and wiping all the data, I'm talking about a dynamic way for the volume profile to update itself visually depending on what is nearby. For example if price has been stuck in a bell curve all day then you will need to have the volume at price levels set quite high if there are combinations of 6k/7k/5k/6.5k in a bell curve. If price moves quickly away and starts trading at 50/90/110 per price level then you're stuck with the same way of looking at the profile that bears no relation to the new volume at price. As such the graphical element of being able to see high or low volume nodes is completely lost. Hope that makes sense!

Regards,
Keab

@TradingTech

Could you please add a column that shows orders being pulled or stacked on the the bid side as well as on the ask side?
Here is a video where it is shown:

Watch it from minute 6:00.

Thank you!
