I've noticed a problem with volume in ES as reported with IB data in Ensign on both 5 minute and 60 minute charts. What happens is that a number is reported for a 5 minute interval. If you later refresh the data, the volume could be wildly different. I might add that these numbers differ from...

IB does not show the 856 version as a download for the standalone version, which is the version I use. By the way, how did you reinstall Ensign? Did you uninstall the existing version first? CA

I just upgraded to Ensign version 2-03, and I now have the same problem. I did not upgrade TWS. CA

That problem has to do with Ensign. However, Ensign corrected a problem of that type in their latest upgrade, so if you have downloaded that you should not be getting that popup. You should have an update dated 1/12/2006 or later. If there is a brand new download of TWS that you have...

The symbol for "tick-nyse" is not working on my TWS today. I tried chat this AM with IB, where they stated that they are aware of the problem and working on it. Now I'm wondering if everyone else also has the problem? Thanks for any feedback. CA

How did you arrive at "controls $150K"? Contract size of the NQ currently is approximately $30K, meaning 10 contracts would be $300K. $45 relative to $300K is low in my opinion. That said, if I were you I'd be looking at the typical trade I might make, the profit generated on a gross basis...

Looks like my statements regarding "delayed fill" are incorrect. But this shows you what a non-starter this is for me. I have approximately 80 symbols loaded into my TWS. All of these are in quote pages in Ensign, from which I can access a chart if necessary. I turn my TWS on early in...

It sounds to me like you and I are using two different products. I'm using the Ensign that seems to work fine, and you're using the one that doesn't.:D Seriously. I normally use 5 minute bars. Normally I don't have to refresh since I watch the same charts every day, and I have my computer...

I don't use "tick charts". I use bar charts. But on bar chart the backfill is not 10 minutes delayed. Frankly, I don't use the refresh feature much anyway unless I pull up a new symbol. But since you trade mainly the ES, I can't see why you'd be pulling up new symbols. Therefore, simply...

Thanks alot for posting the coupon. Bought 3 of the Dell monitors for just under $300 each + tax. I'm an Ensign user for charting. What I'm wondering is whether I can bring up a unique chart on each of the different sceens with Ensign? Or is this something that can only be done with...

Interesting. It seems that the Time & Sales shows the trade quicker than the chart. I wouldn't think that would happen. I don't notice it, but I'm not watching Time & Sales. I do watch market depth, but have not noticed the discrepancy. If you find out anything more on this please update us.

I can't answer your question, but I can tell you this is a problem I don't have. I would suggest you call Support in the AM. Easy to get hold of and very helpful.
