Anyone else running intel based MacBook? (MW7 experience)

[jca619]

I thought some kinks would be resolved ...prior to this i was using the app but was stalling on my iPhone 13,
so i reframed from using it maybe till i get a newer phone and stick to my MacBook (MBP 16 2019 i9) for executions.
I see that a new version on MW7 dropped so i installed it and while doing some TA and watching UK price action
it seemed fine.
When I started trading different charts would black out. Through out the day all my executions were fine. Only thing I can say
that might be a warning was my trailing stops weren't available. Which is fine Ill just watch price and exit appropriately
I wasnt worried till i tried to flatten my trade before close. After I clicked on it ... it was blurry ... like a pop up was trying to give me
a message but it wasnt visible. I literally just paid my funding fee that I had to save for before activating. Currently waiting for
the prop firm to confirm if my account is in good standing. In the meantime im going to install the old version. If the results are bad
i dont think id want to use motive wave going forward ... it'll just leave a bad taste reminding me that I lost a new account on its first day

Wish I could help you. I’m in a new pre hardware transition. Debating to dump the PC for a Mac Studio. The PC GPU is not keeping up and getting tired of Microsoft’s nagware especially with co pilot. If trading is your livelihood, stick to the prior version, until 7 settles down.

Dam, sorry to put a scare since youre deciding to transition to mac ... ive had my MacBook for 6 years. i keep forgetting its this old. Also im on Tahoe ... one thing that is a pain is switching to the new OS and other apps that aren't native to MAC can be glitchy ... which is prolly my case. Ive never ran into this in the past but since I am on an older mac it's something i should be wary of. Not bad tho since my laptops previous to mac brick in 4 yrs. I'll revert back to the OLD OS and see how MW7 works then.

Funny enough, I have been having similar issues. Certain third party studies don't load/show, sometimes takes forever to load. I do believe my computer has something to do with it sadly.
