Datek, please fix your index quotes, or remove them from the quote pages!! They are mostly inaccurate and misleading and this has been going on for some time. Today, orders2 and 3 appear to be updating accurately, while orders4 and 6 are not. If two of your servers are working properly, why is it so difficult to get the others to update accurately?! Just remove all of them until you get it to work. This does not instil confidence in the data your servers display.

Another frustrating Datek puzzle. Trading with Datek is like driving a Mercedes, but every once in a while, one of the wheels falls off. And the Mercedes mechanics are so well off from all the customers who bought their Mercedes (and continue to spend money on them), that you can't get one of them fix your car for days. Worse, if they don't feel like working, they don't even bother to show up. And there's always the promise of that new model coming out next year...

datek !

howabout posting messages on the quote screen as you did in the past ?

people are always calling up quotes - what more sensible place to make sure that a user sees as current a message as possible than to update it on the quote screen as you ONCE DID ?

why oh why do you people insist on changing what was once a useful timely info feature into something more cumbersome to use ?
