Yes, there's not too much we can do about that until we have a 24 hour system - which is being worked on. Your only other choice is to switch servers to the Hong Kong server which shuts down at 3pm EST for about 20 minutes. For closing orders you can also place them by phone

Stop-limit orders are native to Globex, and you can use them at anytime. If you want to use stop orders overnight - these are simulated by IB, and you will need to configure your TWS in order for them to work. You can do this, via Configure>>Order>>Stop Trigger Method

white- that was posted in April !!!

vehn, - yes you can do that.

You need to look at the first notice day - not the last trading day. The first notice day is the first day that a buyer of a futures contract can be called upon to take delivery. The first notice day is often around 4 weeks before the last trading day. For example mini-Gold June contract...

Yes - it should help you get an interview, but that's it. Then you're just at the same level as every other person going for an interview. Try one of the i-banks graduate trainee programs - they usually do not put you straight on the trading desk, but will let you experience multiple...

Surely, you would get what you want from a futures broker trading the FX futures:

You should find that when your original order is filled, the sell limit profit exit and the sell stop-limit should both turn "Green" indicating that both orders are at the exchange. Stop orders will not go to Globex as they are not supported by Globex- thus we hold them on our servers. NB...

Yes, there is definitely real entreprenuership - and a tremendous amount of money being made - you would be surprised just how "capitalist" it really is. China is undergoing great change - it is so clear that you if you visited the place every months you would visibly notice the change...

3 weeks on a daily chart - so around 20 bars on other charts. But its just a case of what name you give it. A longer term pennant is usually called a symmetrical triangle. I'd call this a reverse H&S or a triple bottom - either way, a break above 960 on significant volume should lead to a...

Your first order is just a standard stop order. You can set this up and then right click on the order line and select "Attach Autostop"

Yes, you can do this using Conditional Orders. First set-up your order, .e.g sell SYMC SSF at market. Then, right click on the order line and select "Make Conditional". You will then have a box pop up which will allow you to put in the condition details, e.g. SYMC Stock trades below $44.48

Re: your q's 1) What data feed do you use? We provide a real-time feed ($10 per month, waived if you do $30 commissions). Many of the standard charting providers also provide a Globex feed. 2) Which are the best of the Euro Currencies? EUR is by far the most liquid. All FX futures in...

Ambush is correct. You need an OCA order. You can also set-up this trade in advance of being long the stock at 30. For example you can send in the limit order to buy at 30 and "if done" then send in the OCA order. For this order you should first set-up the limit order, and right click on...

We offer the currency futures ($2.40 per side). Liquidity is very good during those hours - except in the mini-FX contracts which are very illiquid. You can also trade European futures from the same account. www.interactivebrokers.com

A pennant should form over a time period of less than 3 weeks. The pattern you have highlighted could be a reverse head and shoulders. However, volume is not confirming this pattern at the moment.

IB has all that you require. www.interactivebrokers.com $2.40 per contract for e-minis. You can also set-up hotkeys so that you can hit one key, which will send a market order. (or limit or stop order). If you check some of the other threads there is plenty of information about us from...
