According to IB's log, I entered the order and changed many times and final change was at 10045, then the order "dropped off my screen" (direct quote from IB Help). Hours later IB found the execution and sent me the email. Now, they blame me not reproting to them the order was dropped at the...

I'm talking to IB chat online. The person told me "please manage your current position" when I asked "Do I need to liquidate it now?".

Every now and then, you may get two executions while changing an order without hitting the "T" letter. But TWS usually reports as two fills.

Another question about the trade. Do I need to liquidate the long position now or I have to wait until it's all resolved? I have talked to IB help over the online chat but they refered me to help@interactivebrokers.com. My email was not replied so far. YM may go down even more tonight...

While the original order was hit, it left a "T" on the transmit column, but I never hit the "T", therefore I didn't transmit the actual order, TWS did due to some kind of software bug in handling the price change and execution update from the backend. This kind of executing twice during the...

No, this was not stuck order. I think what happened was I placed an order covering my short at 10049. Then I saw mkt was falling so I was changing price to 10045 while in the middle of the change the order at 10049 was hit. TWS simply removed the order as filled. There's nothing there to...

I got this email from IB hours later on a YM trade that's not reported in TWS. They manually entered a trade (long at 10045 after YM has tanked!) into my account. Could this be related to the stupid price change BUG in TWS while it was hit? Has this happened to anyone here before? How do you...

Is this a joke? IB System Status 09:45:12 EST All Systems are operating normally.

I can not login one of my accounts.

It's down again.

Down here

Time System Status 16:14 EST We are currently experiencing technical difficulties. We are looking into the problem.

I guess it's backbone problem again???:confused:

Well, it's down now:(

No problem, throw whatever you have:D.

Nononsense (or better NonSense:-)), Again, you seem to be argumentive to say the least:-) It does not help you get your point cross very efficiently. The reason I was refering to C# was just response to the comments you and CalTrader made about less demand in C# work. Your comment "Did I...

Nononsense, You seem to be bitter about a lot of things related to programming languages. If Java is viable to you, then C# should not be too far away. We have found a lot of applications being ported from VC++/MFC to C# due to reduced cost and more modern features. I guess it's just up to...

It works fine if the data is not stored in relational way. I remembered that some guys did that at Enron for their market data history repository and you knew how slow it was to get a 30 yr forward curve out of database:-) Store serialized arrays or objects in the DB. It's lightening fast on...

You could use MSDE (free download from msdn.com) and store your data in it. Depending on your needs on the data, you could store it as relational data or serialized objects using ADO.NET. For charting purpose, serialization may be the fastest one.

I would stay away from WinSock control with VB, specially if you ever need to run it on a server. It's a relic from the past. If you use .NET, you can use TcpClient and TcpServer in the NET namespace. There're some sample codes at msdn.com as well. You can also copy and paste java sample...
