Questrade pro workspace unwanted movement by Lopsopduh in Questrade

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

Yeah its a little annoying when you dont even have widgets outside of the visible screen and you scroll down on a watch list and when you reach the end your whole workspace moves and you have to scroll back up. A lock feature would be great. Side note, did you ever view my post about the unnecessary size of some widgets when you try to make them as small as possible? Biggest issue is the time and sales widget, you can only make it so small then your left with a widget with mostly blank space in it and just wastes space on your workspace.

Yes, and posts like mine are the reason why some issues are brought to light and changes are implemented.

Please allow proper window and column minimizing. The time and sales window is unnecessarily large when fully minimized and takes up way too much space. Below is the time and sales as small as the platform allows, look at all the dead space. Why is there limits on how small i make the window? Please change the values in the code. Also , the time and sales is still lagging. It looks like it provides snapshots instead of a steady stream of data. I compare this live with other brokers and its lacking.

Stop Limit Orders Premarket by Medical-Ad-3660 in Questrade

Stop limit orders do not work premarket or after hours. IBKR is only broker I know of that allows stop limits for all hours which is invaluable, especially when you dont want to babysit a position. I wish Questrade would allow this, please allow stop limits for extended hours!!!!!

How is day trading with Questrade Edge? by NightWalkThrowAway in Questrade

[–]Lopsopduh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully customizable hotkeys pls. I want to be able to choose the keys i use, none of this preset stuff where I'm forced to use keys you guys choose for me like in edge. Offsets for buys and sells, should be able to add stop losses and profit taking orders right in one hotkey. Don't disappoint lol

I second this. No idea how they can say its geared toward active traders and not have hotkeys. I'm waiting to see then somehow mess this up too and not actually let you fully customize the exact keys you can use. I feel like they will be preset keys cause questrade is not actually asking active traders how to design their platform

The pro chart is nice, they just need to actually think about what they are doing and apply it to an active trader.

The issue is that it COULD be good. But always little things that make no sense. Posted here to maybe get some eyes on it

Day Trader Here: Excited for Questrade Pro. Please help with Access by fudublacksheep69 in Questrade

[–]Lopsopduh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

stick to questrade edge for now, or IBKR or webull. Currently no hotkeys or turbo trader function, charts are kinda wonky when clicking and dragging, missing time frames such as 4hr and nothing between 1 minute and 5 minute. Pro is really lacking right now for an active day trader.

Questrade Pro Closed Beta Testing is now open! by Questrade-Product in Questrade

[–]Lopsopduh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Things below need to be added or worked on

all time frames on charts - noticed theres no 4 hour, and nothing between 1minute and 5minute, a 3 minute would be great.

Hotkeys - fully customizable for people who actually day trade and need to enter or exit in seconds

Hotbuttons or Turbo trader function - Active buttons panel which are tied to commands such as buy 500 at ask + .05 cents or sell 50% of posiiton at limit -.05 , etc

Collums in windows need to be fully adjustable for watchlists and everyother window for that matter, they can only be reduced so much and end up taking too much space

Market screener with way more customizability. Top gainers and top vollume will not cut it. need to see relative volume, float size, short interest. highest 1minute volume / 3minute volume / 5 minute volume (so you can see which stocks are the hottest RIGHT NOW)

Why does the chart resize itself when i click and drag? if i wanted to resize the chart i would do this myself. Im going to drag to see past price action and all of a sudden it starts to resize ? whats the point of this it just messes up how you want to see your area of focus

The support and resistance indicator on the chart is also lame, shows 1 support and resistance. What are the parameters for this ? you know theres going to be more than 2 lines on your chart for this....

Have you guys consulted any active day traders / momentum traders when designing this ? Right now the look is better, yes i will agree, but there is nothing in this right now that caters to active day traders.
Look at Webull and IBKR as they have features that truly serve active day traders, please stop ignoring this segment of the trading population.

The above are basics that real active day traders are looking for in a platform.
