    Adjusted stop TWS

    Why isn't IB up here defending themselves?

    I think he meant it as a positive comment. IB is usually thought of as a serious broker, first to allow APIs. Newbies may say the TWS is too complicated, so I tell them they are not ready for IB, as it is for serious traders/investors. All meant as positive, and thank you very much for...
