    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    I noticed your build 932.5a is slightly newer than mine 932.4. Not sure that matters, or not. If appears to be a data feed problem. Soon after I posted, the 1min history loaded correctly on NQ, ES, and CL futures for me. Now, only the YM ECBOT DEC'12 FUT contract is showing old data...

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    > Or else, maybe the server is feeding in bogus history data when the chart first populates? I think maybe this is the problem. When I load a NQ DEC12 1min chart, it is showing data from 20:10 to 21:50, but my AAPL 1min chart is showing data from 13:00 to 14:00. It looks like the IB...

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    My realtime 1min and 15sec charts are messed up again. The last price is updating on the chart, but the chart bars are not updating. It is strange because sometimes it works, but then at some point they get broken and stop updating. I tried changing the time period, etc., but it...

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    On friday, the 15 sec and 1 minute charts were not updating correctly for ES and NQ, and some other stock symbols. I noticed following: 1) On 15 sec charts, sometimes it didn't advance the bar. It just stayed on the old bar and kept updating it. If I clicked on some other contract and...

    eur/usd, anybody know?

    There is relief that Moody's didn't downgrade Spain to junk, even if the outlook is negative. Yields on Spain debt dropped 27 bps to 6 month lows, so there is excitement that Europe is fixed again (for the 100th time).

    eur/usd, anybody know?

    Screwy looking action. Someone blowing out stops/squeezing shorties? Equity futures are limp noodles during this EUR stiffie.

    Turbotax Dies at 3000 trades, Any Other Software?

    I've been using tradelog for the past 8 years. I can handle 100,000s of trades no problem. The price is $297 for unlimited trades, less if you have less than 1500 trades. The developer has excellent support. If you have 1000s of trades, it's definitely worth the price. The only...

    Went To The Mall Today

    I also noticed packed malls/stores in SiliconValley area, and I think some it is because retailers are offering 50-60% deals plus an extra 15-20% if you use their charge card. No retailer wants to get stuck with excess inventory, so they are aggressively discounting and promoting even before...

    End Of The Free Markets Is Now!

    When I first saw the headline, I thought they were going to announce the Fed had some new plan to buy up mortgage paper or something. But after reading the article, it seems like a power grab by the Executive Branch/US Treasury and the Fed to try to consolidate the regulators. It seems like...

    Circuit City Getting Crushed Today

    I can buy that $500 gadget on amazon with no sales tax whereas circuit city is going to charge me 8.75% or around $45 extra for sales tax. With the savings you can get 1 day express shipping if you'd like, but the regular free shipping is pretty fast (I usually get crap in 2 days). The best...

    The real Unemployment rate in the United States.

    southamerica, Most traders don't really care about the government statistics. We all know they're bull@#$%. The official CPI has been almost a flat line while there has been raging inflation. I agree the employment #s are bogus; Even by those bogus numbers, job growth has been the worst...

    you can all laught at me- I BLEW UP

    If you blowup because you bought 800 shares at 77.98 and sold at 75.30, that was only $2144. If that's all you lost, you should consider yourself lucky. I've lot far more than that on single trades, as I'm sure most other traders that have traded long enough have also. But if $2144 is...

    I have a bunch of enhancement requests for the charts. I entered some of them in the TWS Feature Poll. My main requirements for charts is easy to use UI, fast charts, and good data. I don't use complex indicators. I currently don't use the IB charts because they are just pitiful compared...

    Prioritized Improvements to IBs "FlexStatement" service.

    I replied to your other thread also. I like your list of improvements. My biggest todo item is they need to expand to offer 2 years of monthly trade data for it to be really useful. I don't see why they still have it restricted to last 45 days / last month. You can submit your...

    Python code to access IB "FlexStatement" service.

    I have created something similar in Java. I really like the IB FlexStatements because the XML format is easy to manipulate programatically. But the last time I checked, they are only archiving the last 45 days of trades, so if you forget to download them for a couple months, then you will...
