That Broker Box doesn't stick well in Firefox. It sticks fine in Explorer I think. Could we get max as a default and could the buttons just

Posted by: Catzan on Aug 18, 14:59 in response to Antibody's post The Broker Box is on the navbar under My Portfolio.

be there and not in a pull down menu?  Honestly, to trade Star Bonds for instance, I open two windows, one to look at the calendar and click on the bonds and one on the "Advanced Trader" window which is easier than the trader box. And this is easier than having to go to the end of the line to trade from that button down there or to use the bond page trader I think because of load times. (I don't have those lovely ads blocked yet ;-).

The pull down trade box and then subsequent pull down Buy, Sell, Short, Cover menu make clumsy trading tools.

Other than speed reset trading (oops speed is no longer needed for reset trading as that is pretty low in movement quantity right now (YAY!).), the other practical reasons to quicken the trading process and make it more "one-touch" are when there is plenty of news, star bond adjust day, Oscar Option Day, Clean The Port Day, Summer Warrant Days, etc. etc.  Sometimes it isn't just about the silly Saturday 1pm commish free sell off. While speeding up the trade process does enable the Sat 1pm traders to benefit, it also makes the other massive buying or selling easier that is needed when the bond list is 20 - 30 stars long or options that everyone buys in bulk come along.

But to be able to long in, see someone posted three stock stories and be able to be on and off in under a minute really is beneficial.

Just my opinion...

Can you please, please, please bring back the broker box? Please!! End our misery, please!! verisimilitudinous Aug 17, 20:07

The navbar Broker Box doesn't have a pulldown for Buy, Sell, Short, Cover. Only for Time, which defaults to Day which executes right away. {nm} Antibody Aug 18, 15:42

Well, right you are. I rarely use it cause of the stickiness in Firefox. Heck, if that could default to Max for the amount, that would be Catzan Aug 18, 16:56

I still haven't seen HSX staff address the default "max" issue. Such an easy fix, and people are screaming for it {nm} remrej Aug 18, 19:20

Wait! There is a feature where I can SCREAM?!? Now that is a cool feature in new HSX, if only you could "hear" my actual scream. Now that, Catzan Aug 19, 11:05

you know full well that some players want the 'permanent' broker box that was on the classic port page. Maybe you need a response such as islander Aug 18, 18:05

That is the new 'permanent' broker box. This Next Gen site was built from scratch, nothing is exactly like the classic site. Antibody Aug 19, 10:14

You're defending a broker box that is the worst broker box ever... grory Aug 19, 10:31

ah, i posted mine before reading yours :) {nm} islander Aug 19, 10:50

no, its not "the same number of steps". islander Aug 19, 10:47

We have a better Search box now. Antibody Aug 19, 11:10

Even if we have an 'old" box om the port page, the new Port page will still reload everytime you go back. {nm} Antibody Aug 19, 11:14

ah sorry. the search method does seem to work very well. islander Aug 19, 11:35

Yes, making the broker box sticky is something on the to do list. {nm} Antibody Aug 19, 11:42

I made the same suggestion you did, to make it more sticky with an "x" button, but that doesn't solve much. grory Aug 19, 12:22

Then put it on other pages, too, giving us the option of using it in another window on a page that's quicker to load... grory Aug 19, 12:15

All the securities on the movers pages have their own trade widget. All listing page will also reload when you go back, so a box Antibody Aug 19, 12:36

It doesn't matter what I'm used to, I've already adapted. It's more a matter of what's the best broker box for the game, for everyone's use. grory Aug 19, 13:54

Thanks. I think most of us agree that the improvements made are pretty cool. The search is better, the suitcases are sweet, the lab is nicer Catzan Aug 19, 11:19

You are not listening at all. Antibody, please tell me something. Where am I getting the ticker symbol???? verisimilitudinous Aug 19, 15:05

This is why I would like it back, HSX, just to be clear... verisimilitudinous Aug 19, 14:09

Come on, Antibody, you know exactly what I am talking about. Would it really be so hard to bring it back? It was extremely useful. {nm} verisimilitudinous Aug 18, 19:51

There's an elephant in this room. {nm} edzep Aug 18, 20:24

Yes, please MAX by default {nm} The Claw Aug 19, 06:50
