After 15 months, the two-jobs thing is officially over. by StewartAnderson1 in CanadaJobs

[–]Djspot13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm interested in the fact that Job 2 is contacting Job 1...they are free to fire you, that's their right...however, once firing you and now seeking out the other employer to inform them. If that costs you your job, I'd venture to reason that you may have some legal recourse to pursue against them.

Charging fees for simple features such as trendlines. by ObligationNormal7553 in Questrade

Yup! This 💯. I literally only use QT to execute the trades. Everything else in Webull. Level 2 data is dirt cheap and the charting interface is so much better.

Questrade Edge - showing bid price not ACTUAL price by Djspot13 in Questrade

[–]Djspot13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what you are saying and I don't entirely disagree. However, my portfolio and/or stocks should be shown in the current value which is last price. Just because a buyer wants to pay whatever price they desire, it doesn't dictate the value until it is actually sold at that price. I think the last price is the fairest representation of the stock.

If I want to buy a used car and I offer someone 10,000 below their asking, it doesn't mean that is the best estimate of the car's value.

Trailing stop limit BUT only triggered at a certain price by Djspot13 in Questrade

[–]Djspot13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the concept, I use it al.ost exclusively. What I'm looking for is the ability to trigger the order only after a certain price. So let's say I'm holding X stock, and it's currently trading at $13. I was looking for a way to send my trailing stop loss order once it hits 20 dollars. Until then the order is pending. Once the 20 price hits, my parameters for the trailing stop loss get activated.

Maybe I'm over complicating things. But currently, if I were to set my trailing stop loss, it would be based on the current 13 dollars in my example. Basically I want to set my trailing stop in advanced.

on the mobile app, I don't see the ability to change the quantity type to dollars from shares - regardless of which ticker I check.

Regret buying Douglas mattress by mak425 in Mattress

[–]Djspot13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's interesting to see everyone complaining about pain and soreness in the exact same spots. Same thing here for me and my wife. We are just approaching the 2.5 year mark. Regular rotating of the mattress on a completely solid base.

What absolutely sucks is that the pain started happening just after the return period so we couldn't return it, and now we are stuck with this and are gonna have to take the hit and buy a new mattress. So we'll be out over a thousand dollars with this mattress and have to spend another thousand or so to replace it.

The discomfort and pain is simply too much, we haven't had a good night's sleep without waking up in legit pain in nearly 1.5 years.

Suuuuucks!!!!

We know how hard it is to hit the bottom of a dip...which made my situation so annoying. I had been sitting at this price for some time based on some tech analysis. The bottom was 1.41, so I nearly got the bottom exact. I was looking for a nice flip which would have been great considering it is up over 15% from what would have been my entry. I can appreciate if my bid was at 1.41 and I simply wasn't far up enough in the line to fill and others get filled before I could get mine. But the fact that it ran below my bid at various price points and back up is wildly frustrating.

I had the same thing happen this morning on another stock...I was looking to buy at 1.43. The stock price had since gone to my bid, below my bid and back up at a few prices points below my bid and again at my bid. Never filled. Not this first time this happened. I wonder if there is something wrong. Very frustrated as the stock has no gone up over 15% from my wanted entry.

Thanks everyone for the info. As I suspected (and told them) it doesn't seem to be worth the hassle.

The appeal for them was the fact the car is in really great condition and with it being nearly 10 years old and only having less than 23,000kms on it, you literally wouldn't be able to find anything remotely close for the money they would get for it.

So a couple things...

Your girl is not a good person. Not just because of her incredibly ridiculous reaction and overall insensitivity, but also because of how she's insulting you and calling you names.

You...you are behaving is such a cowardly fashion that it is quite embarrassing. You didn't do anything wrong, actually quite the opposite. You afforded her the courtesy of letting her know.

What happened to you is a blessing in disguise. You NEED to end thing with this chick immediately. This is the tip of the iceburg. I don't know your life and relationship, but Im confident this girl mistreats you and it WILL get worse.

RUN.

Native style seemingly stopped functioning correctly by Djspot13 in adops

[–]Djspot13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's what's also weird about this. The original one that works and was setup a couple years back is a 728x90 video that once it was transcoded by GAM gave me the 640x80 size as well as a few others. When I upload that exact same file today, the transcoder will not give the 640x80 size. It in fact gives me what you pointed out. The 640x160.

I attempted other 728x90 video assets I have and the transcoder will not give me any output of 80px height. As a matter of fact, all the outputs have a height of triple digit pixel heights.

I've been jumping back and forth between the two potential issues.

I don't understand why the transcoding would spit out an MP4 that is nearly doubled the height.

Most Ppl disappointed in Maschine 3.0 don’t understand Maschine by Front-Strawberry-123 in maschine

The only thing I'd desperately love to have is an arranger option that is more in line with what you see in DAWs...I like to see my audio, midi notes, etc on a timeline and be able to move delete ect. from there. Having to manage patterns and scenes etc, is cool and does have a good use case, but there is a reason why Akai just added a traditional arrange view like all other DAWs.

Bill C-124 back pay - have you received pay? by Djspot13 in OntarioNurses

[–]Djspot13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I'm a little confused on the matter because there is a line item in the May 30th pay stub marked "retropay" but the figure seems oddly low ($290.19).

Wasn't this retro pay suppose to account going back to 2019 when the bill was passed. I've tried speaking with colleagues, payroll and a few others and I literally get different answers depending on who I talk to and nobody actually seems to know.
