always. at least for this month. I gave eSignal a try mainly for Jurik's indicators, but found this fact that no intraday Globex volume update, so I checked FS ProNET and found Globex the only electronic exchange not having intraday volumes updated in realtime. I didn't know till now because...

Anybody know why eSignal doesn't have E-Mini's volumes updated in realtime? So does FutureSource? The only two data vendors that I have used that don't carry intraday Globex volumes. All other electronic exchanges are ok. Why? Any idea?

completely concur with vulture. Cannot understand ditt's argument "but I decided they were not for me. I'm just a small fish,trade 2 cont., 1-3 trades a day.". Isn't IB especially fair and friendly to these "small fishes"?

Oh, My god! But how about the depreciation of securities? And I think you buy-and-hold-to-death(or delisted) and never take profits by selling stocks with price higher (with all dividends etc. taken into account) than when you bought them? If ever, who is to pay? Don't know what you are...

Anybody know when and from what version on J-TRADER is/will be FULLY compatible with JRE 1.4.0+ ?

"most reliable"? based on what? compared to what? You should better take a more conservative approach in your assertion.

Surely I like IB. IB is honest, transparent, financially solid, technology-driven and really innovative, and IB is doing its best to leveling the playing field. IB is unique. IB is a phenomenon, a paradigm. With all the above said, I think everybody considering itself (itself =...

Agree, agree, agree!

Read or Re-read the Communiqué- June 21, 2002: "Beginning Monday June 24th at 9 am ET, you may either open a new Universal Account from Open an Account, or convert an existing account to a Universal Account from the Account Login menu. Account conversion requests will be processed in batch...

I think without streaming bid/ask updates you can still place limit orders by manually keying in the limit prices, though tedious, time-consuming and inefficient - but some people won't care so much (as to the exchange fees spent) depending on their trading style, and it will have no influence...

Can be realtime, I believe. Did I mention the key word cost? My Factiva experience came from a migration from RBB (Reuters Business Briefing) that was once a compulsive part of Reuters Markets 3000 service in my country. Please note that I write the above sentence in the past-taste style...

Agree. Except for Kse Kospi 200, Ose Nikkei 225 and OTC Forex & currency options. With Universal Account and SMA implementation we can foresee a growing interest and demand for the Asian index futures and options that will justify IB's investment and rationalize the transaction cost...

Factiva, a joint venture between Dow Jones & Reuters. If cost is not your concern.

No you have not. IB's Universal Account is a much-better implementation than you have conceived. Read it yourself IB's June 21st Communiqué. Quoted below for your convenience: "In conjunction with the Universal account, we are no longer requiring customers to receive their real-time...

IB TWS, both browser-based and standalone. Streaming realtime data too, not too bad in quality. You need only pay exchange data fees. But you still need a Win2K or WinXP-based machine running your "production" datafeed and charting package, or you want to go to the institutional feeds like...

Agree. Different paradigms. Buy them all. Remember one of them is IB Universal Account.

A real innovation. A phenomenal improvement. An event of significant importance.

You can with the "universal account". It's coming. It's coming ... by June 22 it's said.

The last trading day of June Dax, EuroSTOXX50 and Footsie futures are all 6/21, this Friday. My pragmatic approach to rollover rules of any markets I trade is starting to list both months one week before the last trading day, and watching the change of trading activity which is reflected by...

If Globex is down, no way the E-minis can be traded. If it's an outage of Globex's connection to certain routers, hubs, etc., E-minis may continue to trade, but certain brokers affected may not be able to access Globex. In this case, some affected brokers may activate alternate order routing...
