    Interactive Brokers and their ever changing margins.

    After another day of getting orders rejected because I'm currently getting about 3:1 (or whatever they decide on the day) in my portfolio margin account...I want to know, are Lightspeed winding in the margins on their portfolio margined accounts?

    IB Insured Bank Deposit Sweep Program

    I will, but as you know, they take time to respond. So I thought someone may know here, it seems I was mistaken.

    Which equities data feed to determine trade aggressor?

    I could be wrong, but I believe Nanex and IQFeed are the same people and the latency problems which apply to IQFeed also apply to NxCore. This is to do with the physical location of their severs. Of course, beyond IQFeed and NxCore everything gets very expensive.

    List of data providers - equities and equity options

    IQFeed is pretty solid, it has worked well (apart from one day) during the recent meltdown, their support is, however, somewhat indifferent. Polygon looks good, but you should take a look look at their slack channel, they seem responsive, but the problems are multiple and ongoing.

    IB API Error 154 Orders cannot be transmitted for a halted security.

    I don't have TWS open, I'm using the gateway. I haven't actually seen this error, I just want to be ready if I do get it.

    IB API Error 154 Orders cannot be transmitted for a halted security.

    OK, but I don't suppose you know if the order state is set 'inactive' or 'rejected'?

    Given what has been happening this week, has anybody seen this error in the wild (or others)? If so, will the order go inactive as with other similar errors?

    Amex Comission.

    Read it more carefully, the real commission was -$0.18, see the minus this time?

    Amex Comission.
