I'm thinking about to switch to IB and want to ask if there can be some problems, or maybe someone did this before and can explain me about his experience?

The decision was made because of an inactive fee. But now I'm thinking about to switch to IB and want to ask if there can be some problems, or maybe someone did this before and can explain me about his experience?

You are talking about tiered rates, I calculated with a fixed rate. If we consider tiered rates than for 5000EUR an order price is 4,68EUR Please have a look at tiered prising for IBIS. Lynx is interesting if you are not traiding, if you investing and waiting, you have no fixed costs. But now...

Xetra - Stocks costs 0.1% with a 4 Euro Minimum by IB in our case 5000 Euro order costs 2,4 EUR by DEGIRO and 5 EUR by IB The same operation in US cost 1 USD :( It's a big difference. Let's say Market goes down and you have to close 20 positions - 100 EUR vs. 50 EUR vs. 20USD. And if it's...

Hello everybody , I'm currently using Lynx and searching for a cheap alternative to trade stocks in Germany. IB is not expensive in US but not very cheap in Germany. As an option I consider DEGIRO, but they have only web platform, no API and no real-time quotes. I'm thinking about using a TWS...

for now i've tried to program strategy using sierra chart - it's seem a very powerfull tool, but there is not a lot of documentations, it's not really object oriented, really old school :) then I did the same strategy, backtesting and optimizing using multicharts.net - it easy to understand...

After several experiment I understand that orders are active only during one bar. And found the place where it is written in 4.6.9 :banghead:. Very interesting :rolleyes: is it possible to send a GTC order? That order can be executed even if I have some internet connection problems.

I did a small test creating an order longOrder = OrderCreator.Stop(new SOrderParameters(Contracts.Default, "Long open", EOrderAction.Buy)); and then sending it longOrder.Send(40); it was never executed, what is the problem? the market orders are executed during the backtest, but not stop orders.

Hello All, I'm writing strategy for multicharts.net and can't find any example of getting order state, if it is open or filled. Also I need to modify existing limit and stop orders, how I can do it?

You mean that you made a backtester of your own? I just thought that maybe there are existing tools that can help to save time. Do you have a chart in you program? If yes what framework are you using? jfreechart?

Thank you for your advice. Currently I consider to test this 5 tools: multicharts .net, ptmc, ninjatrader, sierra chart and motivewave. What would be the best choose for a long term perspective? Or maybe I forgot some interesting tools that is available on the market. The right system should...

Hello All, I'm professional software developer starting to trade on a stock market. At the beginning I get an IB account. Soon I understand that I need some software for automated testing of my strategies and even for automated trading. I read about multicharts .net, ninjatrader, ptmc...
