New website update is very unfriendly for mobile users. Can we get a desktop link option or someone provide a link we can use the desktop site?
I’ll get this fixed.
I’m not seeing open trades and trade history on Android chrome phone.
Oh well!
I was trying to simplify, simplify, simply what seemed like a cluttered and ugly and really quite useless view on a tiny screen. (Could not fathom how anyone could see all those trade-by-trade details on a tiny phone screen).
I see now that was a mistake. Sorry.
I’ll bring it back ASAP.
Trade history and partial closed positions is not in desktop site anymore…
A few subs told me if it wasn’t for the email, they can’t see recent trades or alerts on the web site.
VixTrader:
-
Trade History is indeed still visible on the desktop site. I’m perplexed by your statement to the contrary. Please send me a screen shot showing me a page with missing trade history so I can look into it. (I agree the trade history has been removed from mobile-width screens, but this will be re-added shortly.)
-
Recent Signals are also still available on desktop-width screens, but have been moved down to the bottom of the page, as I think they are of secondary importance.
-
And finally, to all those interested: Yes, yes, we will be re-adding the “detailed view” for Open Positions section shortly. Hang in there.
Matthew,
I’ll add my voice here as well. The open trades detail helps me gauge slippage in systems I am subscribed to and I often use the details for open and closed trade entry into my tracking spreadsheets since I don’t always keep my brokerage account open.
Also, could recent signals be moved back to the top and be kept open? I always refer to this section to be sure I didn’t miss a signal email and to verify the signal quantities, limit prices, etc. This would save scrolling down and having to open another window.
Thanks.
as traveler - mobile traing on c2 never was easy
ipad = OK
iphone = somethimes bad bad
please any idea for app? or something else?
Congratz to @MatthewKlein The changes are great!
Essential information is instantly visible from the main page and I’m happy to see that my suggestion about the equity market risk (a.k.a. S&P 500 correlation) is visible and helps to determine if a strategy has some alpha (low correlation) or is just a leverage on beta (high correlation). It’s, of course, not the end of the story to evaluate a strategy but a very good move.
Zulu includes some warning messages if a trader has “reckless” behaviour which is used to flag martingale and averaging down strategies. In a nutshell, high deviations in margin requirements (or leverage ratio, or average unhedged option premium risked vs. average gain ) could flag these here on C2 too.
@MatthewKlein could you please return date selection controls for equity diagram?
Open trade/history on mobile was useful, just not very user friendly with those dialogs popping up and scrollability and such. a few tweaks of the UI and it’d be great if you brought it back.
happy to beta test if you’d like. i specialize in UX and manage an internet development team.
AndreyBlinkov, the new displays have much more control of date ranges. Just play with the control directly below the graph.
I can only made the slider below the diagram shorter or longer, and then move it left and right. Same functions that I had earlier. Nothing new. No way for me to set an exact date, no way to show exact month, year or year to date period.
Do any tools exist to set exact date range on new system’s equity diagrams?
I removed those little UI dongles as part of an effort simplify and de-clutter the screen.
Is it possible to return them back. It was really convenient.
The thing about user-interface clutter is that every single thing is extremely useful to someone. The better question is: is it useful to 80% of users? (Not 80% of people who read this forum, by the way – you’re Power Users. I’m talking about 80% of Joe Average Users.) I think the jury is out. Let me discuss with our new product guy @t-devGROUP. Of course I welcome any feedback here. Can’t promise I’ll listen to it, but I do welcome it.
