Anyone else noticed the new program launcher? Maybe this is why there were some glitches yesterday!

Yes I’m sure it is.

Anybody agree that Backtest is running much much slower since 5 June 16 Update??

Thanks

I didn’t notice that. Worked all day on strategies development with many backtests.

Sometimes restarting the platform help a lot,when things go slower than usually..

Yes I agree, I often restart if I’ve been doing a lot of Backtests.

My PRT has been slow from first start up today and even after several restarts.

I am with IG, maybe IG are the source of slowness?

I will see if any improvement tomorrow and report back.

In the attached photo can anyone explain why the ProRealTime Launcher is different on my LIVE account to my DEMO account? Both snapshots are taken from Internet Explorer. As per the start of this thread the DEMO account now has the launcher shown on the right in the photo and the LIVE account has not changed. You can see in the two screen prints the related Tabs to each launcher. Just curious to know if this is correct or if there is a problem with my browser?

Hi Mark,

I dont see the new launcher window from IG in either Live or Demo accounts. Do you still have it ?

Good morning Grizzly, yes it’s still here. I have three demo accounts and use Chrome for two of them and IE for the other including my LIVE account. In Chrome the launcher is now the new style for both demo accounts and as previously explained IE is different depending on which account you are logged in as. Makes me wonder if it would be the same in Chrome on LIVE…. Just going to check that out.

Interesting! Chrome is behaving the same as IE in that LIVE is different to DEMO. So I guess this new launcher is in a trial period on Demo accounts before being rolled out on the LIVE platform.

Hi Mark

How did you get 3 Demo accounts … is that with IG?

Did you just ask for 3, or in 3 different account owners?

Only asking because I’d like more than 1! ha

Thanks

This launcher already exist for ProRealTime software for months now. If you have the big button ‘launch your platform’, it is because you have installed the launcher software on your computer. But you can also launch it as usual with the little java file by clicking on the ” Start ProRealTime using Java ” instead.

This launcher is still not available for IG clients.

GraHal, it’s just a case of using different email addresses. One time when I called IG because I locked myself out of my account they simply told me to create a new one using a different email address. So now I have 3 in which I trial strategies for individual Forex.

Nicolas it’s not particularly important because everything is working as it should, but thought I would share because it was new.

Thanks Mark, I’ll raise another account … it will help me get around that ‘awful non-sortable, non filterable screen’ which lists all currently running Strategies.

Btw … I’m with IG and I have the big button launcher since Mon 6 June 16 and everything seems to be working fine.

As an IG client, it is annoying that PRT doesn’t have it’s own launcher. I end up with dozens of java files for every time I launch it up.
