Slow or is it just me?

Has anybody else noticed that for the past week or so it has sometimes very slow when moving around this site? It seems to take ages when moving to anything other than the homepage and I am not sure if it is my laptop, my connection or the website. I am posting this a second time because the first one just seemed to freeze.

Yes! Is it a chrome thing? I am also in chrome. Pages just don't load .. you refresh, refresh, refresh.. trades take a couple minutes to go in. I lost a couple grand this week coz of this. This is so disappointing! I'll try I.E tomorrow :-(

Thanks for the info, have been experiencing the same problem. Tried explorer which gets me back to normal speed but when you log off and re-log in later it won't hold my required chart settings and reverts to basic default settings. Anyone else had this problem as well?

Running in IE now, this is very irritating as I do everything in Chrome. Chrome is supposed to be the easiest platform compared to IE to develop for... so this is crazy. Can someone please complain to OST about this and bring this to their attention as it doesn't look like they ever read their own forums? A developer is supposed to test their work on all browsers to check compatibility. Basic mistake OST.

Had the same problem with Chrome. Updated to Version 38.0.2125.122 m and seems much better.

Tried upgrading chrome and it is still buggered and pages don't load. I.E is running smooth at the moment but this is a big inconvenience. Everyone hates I.E!
