Justin,

I see your website says that Windows Vista is not recommended for the navigator. Since Vista is the system computers come with now, are there plans to remedy that?

Hey Guys,

I'm looking into the reports of issues with the new Nav version, I'll let you know what I find out shortly.

With regards to using Vista...I've had Vista on my machine for the past year and have had no problems, but since we haven't certified it yet for Vista we must say that.

Hey Guys,

Thanks.

I just tried downloading the new version but I got an error message, I went ahead and continued with the download; once downloaded I couldn't even get the screen to show up to log in.

Everything is cool. I hit system restore and the old version is now running again..

I have no open positions so it aint a big deal right now. I hope it can be resolved by early Monday morning though, unless I can still access the old platform.

Overall, I want to say thanks for the great costumer support that you have given me in the brief time that I have been trading with your company and it is nice to know that MB is striving to improve on platform.

Come Sunday evening if I am still having problems, what would be the best way to go about getting it going?

Thanks.

Justin: whats the Newedge banner on the MB Trading website about? Is that the former Fimat Newedge or some other Newedge?

When do you expect to have accurate data history on the newly added charts in the navigator? 1 Hour charts appear to be working, the other timeframes do not look right.

Justin,

After upgrading to the latest Navigator I noticed that you no longer include the commission field in the positions window.

I emailed customer support and never received a response.

I realize you have high commissions, but are you guys now trying to hide that from the trading window? lol, c'mon. I hope that isn't the case and it's just been renamed to something so obscure I can't find it. :-)

Hi, Justin:

I have a question about the CSV file.

Is it possible that creat a Excel file that have a column like "current price" be synchronized with the live quote? If possible, how can I do that?

Thanks

We recently arranged to have NewEdge (formerly Preferred Trade) customers transfer to MB, that is why you see the banner at the top of our website.

Not sure on the data...they are still testing it - I'll see if their are any updates.

Jason,


It's still called commissions and you should be able to find it by right clicking on the column row under Positions and selecting add/remove columns.

Hello,

This may seem a very minor issue, but when I change the spread meter on preferences to 1.0 for narrow green, it always changes back to 0.5 when I log out and log back in.

Otherwise no problems and very pleased with the execution and fills.

http://i35.tinypic.com/ohty1f.jpgThis is a follow up to a previous post. Is anyone At MBT looking into the issue of stability for the new release. As I said earlier, I've never had any issues with your software. But since loading the new release, I've been experiencing constant issues with stability. The Navigator will run for about an hour, then an error message will pop up and it will force itself to close. There's either a memory leak going on or something similar that will cause this kind of behavior. I'd appreciate it if someone would look into this problem.

As an aside, I'm not a tech newbie or new to your Navigator trading program, so I'm 99% sure its not something I'm doing wrong..

Thanks and best regards...

Hello all

I'm noticing a lag, where the ticker is updating "real time" (I opened my date/time in windows and compared the last print on the ticker to the windows time down to the second, and the ticker seemed to be exact)

I'm connecting through ninja trader but that shouldn't matter. The level 2 last price and time can be a full minute behind sometimes and depending on market activity a substantial # of pips off....

Is anyone seeing this?

thanks
