    Strategy Runner down

    I was in the middle of switching from IB to Strategy Runner for increased reliability and wake up this morning and the entire system is down. Very hard to have much faith when the system goes down on your third day!!!

    Thanks for the info. I have tried the Strategy Runner demo for a couple of days and like it a lot. I hope it is as robust as it feels. And bye bye Java!

    I had several outages this fall when the notes were on ACE. On big volatile report days: the days I trade. I just can't keep hoping IB will not fail during high volatility reports. Maybe TT?

    Strategy Runner Users

    Thanks for the feedback. I have just had too much trouble with IB going down this past fall and just recently (Fed and employment report). And since I trade Notes on the reports this is critical. Switching the windows is really no problem since I only trade one market.

    And while I am in the middle of bailing from IB (too unreliable) and considering J trader: has anyone had any experience with Strategy Runner. I know it is C++ instead of Java, which appeals to me, and also has OCO functionality. Thanks

    ZB ZN ZF Question

    You are using the continuous contract symbol in TS (@TY). Try using the individual contract symbol: tyh04 and see if it matches with IB.

    do any application based plateform have the same speed as to the execution of orders?

    I am in the same situation myself. I am considering Openecry, Fasttrade, and Velocity. Any feedback on these three options would be greatly appreciated. Thanks (I am done with IB: reliability isn't up to par for my needs)

    IB blank screen today

    Same with me: blank screen most of the afternoon. IB e-mailed me later saying I could trade even without quotes. Yea, right. I like trading in high volatile environments and IB has done this several times in the last year so I am currently looking for a new broker. Any suggestions...

    Best Spot Currency Dealer?

    Has anyone had any experience with GCI Trading? They deal Forex, and the CFDs look interesting. However I am a bit leery of sending money to Belize.
