    Alternatives to IBKR API

    Thanks. Amp doesn't do Asian exchanges. Was trying to avoid cqg tt rithmic as they are more professional level with higher fees. Looks like IBKR for now

    Alternatives to IBKR API

    Hi, Does anyone have recommendations to look at alternatives. Products mostly just futures. These should cover US and Asia exchanges. I run TWS Gateway , am looking for something different.

    Android IBKR can't display orders above 100

    Thanks Dave, yup it's not 100 per sec. It's literally more than 100 active orders.

    Android IBKR can't display orders above 100

    Hi, I have a bunch of active orders , as well as an API firing off some limit orders. I realised that once the orders get above 100 live orders I cannot see the new orders via the mobile app. Previously, if I had say 80 orders - I could immediately see the new API orders come through. Now I...

    Investment Banking Trader - what risk capital you get to trade with ?

    I should have added. Funding positions do affect your pnl. I.e. buying and holding securities as pointed out above. Or shorting securities and having a repo to fund. Fx trades are funded with swaps.

    Investment Banking Trader - what risk capital you get to trade with ?

    In Banks, there isn't a concept of capital at the trader level. Agency / execution traders have their own parameters and take very little to no risk. Traders with mandates to take discretionary positions have limits such as a MTD or YTD stop or even more granular like daily stop limit. These...

    Hi, Does anyone know if Futures Orders that are REL order type are worked hidden within IBKR or other venue instead of being exposed/worked on an exchange?

    TWS disable API order sheet?

    I have no charts running, just watchlist and order panel on the desktop. When I do not have API/orders running then TWS works perfectly. If i could turn "off"/disable TWS monitoring those API orders, I think that should suffice, maybe if a solution to set TWS as clientID NOT 0?

    TWS disable API order sheet?

    I havent been able to solve this problem. TWS is unuseable when I have a algo running with about 100 live orders. The CPU load ranges anywhere between 25-85% and Memory usage is about 70-88% with TWS taking 50% of that. I have a 16GB machine with 8GB allocated to the JRE for TWS. Anyone with...

    TWS disable API order sheet?

    I have a separate user/workstation running gateway with API orders. I run TWS for non systematic trading. But now that the load from API is higher it seems to have impacted TWS performance

    TWS disable API order sheet?

    Hi, I have been using TWS without too much trouble, but recently started running some algos that are quite active. This seems to have impacted TWS such that it is slow to the point I cannot really use it. Is there a way to disable this window from popping up / monitoring all the live orders...
