Thanks for your content! It would help to up the quality of the video. It’s at 360 max resolution.

[@SigmaCoding]

Initially, when I upload a video, it will be in low resolution because KZbin has to process it on their end. Unfortunately, I have no control over how long that takes, but you usually can do a 720 resolution after a few hours. Also, sometimes you need to manually adjust the resolution because it won't automatically change.

Hi, I have super dumb question. If you want to get price quotes, what is the benefit of using streaming api as opposed to regular "Quotes" api and calling it again and again ?

[@SigmaCoding]

Because if you use the streaming API, you're now in the world of asynchronous programming so you can have that process run in tandem with other processes. Additionally, you won't run into rate-limits because TD only sends back the data as frequently as you specify in the Quality of Service request.

It is a great video , but it is confusing jumping from one file to another. How do I make an interface for this app please , can you do a video for that? Thank you

[@SigmaCoding]

Thanks for the feedback I'll keep that in mind for future videos. When you say interface, do you mean like a GUI?

[@MajidKC]

Sigma Coding yes , GUI . And thanks for the response , I will get back to you with some questions .

[@MajidKC]

I want to make an app to do TD Ameritrade through their APIs and I want automate it. I want simple things, can I send you an email to ask you what I want please? If so, please provide me with your mail. Thank you again.

Hi all, is anyone having problem with ameritrade streaming services? I know they had a huge outage this week but TOS seems to be working now however the streaming is still not working for me. I was wondering if it is my code or the ameritrade streaming API is still down. I have also send an email to API team but I'll probably hear back from them in 2021 ;)

[@aosavas1]

Just an update it was my code, apparently TD Ameritrade can't handle a lot of symbols for the level2 data on streaming. 5 of them is OK as a list but 2000 is not acceptable even though 2000 is fine for level1 quote and historical data.... I have one more question left... How can I write a routine where I can modify the symbol list on demand. Meaning start the streaming, then remove or add more symbols while it is going.
