No not done that, trying to find a clear answer from IB if it works or does not work. Your proposal will demand assumption again from my side, and this i want to avoid. My question is in regards to both IB Gateway and TWS. Thanks for input though. What makes me worried here, is that i have...

Displayed yes, but this does not tell me anything more than that its displayed. I tried to get a confirmation that it will work as normal. I did not wanted to operate under assumption. The fact that support staff have communicated that it WONT work as of now, and that it WILL work as of now...

I really like IB in general, but getting different responses from IB support... some of them says trading negative crude oil future contract will work, some says it will not, have anyone else been able to get a confirmation form IB about this ? and will it work for both IB Gateway and TWS...

@narafa Thank you, very kind of you .. Yes its looks rather complex... i am trying to figure out if there is levels that i can code in safety procedures to avoid trades in order not to be stuck in halts.. What i am most worried about is halt for the day, i was under the impression that CL...

Hi Sekiyo, many thanks for feedback... somehow there is circuit breakers also up, as i understand it there is temporary halts for 2 minutes, i believe this happened today ? so this 0,01 downward limit set to 0.01... how should one calculate using this, 0,01 from what price ? and 0.01 from for...

Hi, I am looking at CL and trying to figure out trading halt regulations for the symbol.. Looking at CME website, under daily price limits, crude oil i can see that Reference price for CLM0 is 1157 and dynamic circuit breaker variant is 174.0 How can i use this to calculate opssible trading...

So did they came back and explained things as promised ? i cant see anyone in this thread after the date mentioned, perhaps i am missing something ?

Heres another one, be satisfied with average and simple... average is the key.. average and simple settings, simple ideas... perfect does not exist, perfection leads you to overfitting.... average and simple on not to tight account, will make you a killing in the end.. however you can be lucky...

Do nothing of the above, forget mentors, forget seminars.... since you know not much about trading you would not, be able to ask the right questions anyway... instead. read, study... test, read more... study markets, and then read some more.. spend everyday like this for the next 1-2...

Makes sense man, i agree with you... People expecting to be handed the solution without making any effort , those people i dont have much for.... i was just reacting to the deserve to fail part :) ... anyway, enjoy Sunday and the amazing markets we have now .. cheers

I mean, kind of harsh, unless you just want to be rude, no? is this not the path we all has gone trough? or at least most of us when you start the algo trading route, you read, you test, your torture your data, backtest incorrectly and change until it works, then turn on live, then fail...

This thread is very amusing :).. haha... the stuff that some people post.. jesus

Without even knowing who or what Axia even is... more than a financial company of some sort.. This is the first forum i have even been a member of where a forum member is asked not to post financial findings about a company (until they in this case would find time to potentially reply), that...

@fan27 Thank you, will do that, and have a look, many thanks

@globalarbtrader Thank you very much. Your examples indeed provides some clarity to why you reason as you do. I am back to drawing board it seems. Btw i have bought all your books, and going to get the latest one, so shall be interesting to read about what you refer to, thanks for pointing it...

@globalarbtrader again thanks for commenting, may i kindly ask you about how you would go about a few things... 1: So lets say i decide that "not performing" is a 50% drop in profit factor or sortino ratio of the strategy, how would you go about to determine what would be a needed amount of...

@fan27 i understand, however i assume you must have a process/definition of which trade to take if you get multiple signals at the same time? if not then i assume its just decided randomly? perhaps this is not an issue at all for you due to all different strategies and timeframes. I was...

@guru thanks for feedback, i understand. Despite this, one has to decide which strategies to run or take out of a portfolio. So how have you solved the problem? Thanks for structure/language recommendation.

@tommcginnis i agree wit this, i would say then that i am trying to find a good solution to avoid the BAD rather than chasing the best :)

@fan27 thanks for feedback, My approach is to diversify and smoothen out my equity curve of my portfolio by using multiple markets in my case, ES, CL, NG, S, SI. My risk approach is to have a maximum risk per market to 1% of my portfolio If all strategies per market trades at the same time, my...
