Ninja 4 & TWS 852

[SellUmHi]

TWS is requiring everyone to upgrade to theirminimum level of 852 by 12/18/05. Since the last version of TWS that Ninja 4 can work with is 851, does that mean that all the Ninja 4 users will be forced to Ninja 5? Will Ninja 4 fail if I upgrade to TWS 852?

I have used Ninja 5 & I found it cumbersome and difficult to use. It is also missing options that I use everyday.I want to keep using Ninja 4. What can I do?

PS - What options do you feel are missing?

The options that are missing are:

1. The easy scale in / scale out buttons
2. You switched the middle mouse from Stop Market to Stop Limit
3. You dropped the "Create Strategy" ability. I temporarily lost power and Ninja 5 dropped my strategies. The OCO workaroundis an unacceptable way to resolve this problem. It only gives me 1 stop & 1 target, instead of 1 stop & 3 targets.
4. The SuperDOM & Basic windows are huge and cannot be resized. I trade 4 accounts in 2 markets each all at once. Ninja 4 allows me toshrink the screens down at bit, but not Ninja 5.
5. I don't like the way you removed the Strategy Manager.

I could go on, but I need to test out Ninja 4 with TWS 852.

Thanks -

1) There are quick buttons options in the latest V5
2) Not true, this has always been an option in V4 and V5 what you want middle button to default to. V5 SuperDOM properties change this.
3) Correct, will add this capability back in before year end.
4) We did make a change in a recent V5 release. Although you can not change the width, they are the same width as V4.

The DOM & Basic windows may be the same size, but I have run them side by side and there is a difference (both in width & height). Regardless, I shrink my windows up now so that they all fit onto the screen and with N5 I can no longer do that.

NT5 basic entry and super DOM should be a bit smaller but slightly higher than NT4. If you experience different, please:
a) send use screenshots
b) let us know DPI settings and screen resolution

Thanks
