Isn't this now twice in 7 days being down? This is/was the reason IB was the best.

I've done this - even had a remote desktop session with support FYI. They were nice in support & tried, just no solution. Not a huge deal for me, as I just chart using a 3rd party, but if I was ever in a pinch and needed to rely on TWS for technical analysis, sure it would be nice. I get the...

I just moved on & chart elsewhere :cool:

There's their ETF vs S&P index FYI. (0.80 exp ratio) ETF PERFORMANCE & INDEX HISTORY (%) Quarterly | Monthly YTD 1 Year 3 Year 5 Year Inception ETF NAV 7.08% 15.39% 5.73% 11.29% 7.57% ETF Closing Price 7.41% 15.59% 5.71% 11.35% 7.61% IBD® 50 Index 7.01% 15.63% 6.64% 11.96% - S&P...

same issue, made a post while back. Contacted support w/o a fix. Sometimes flipping tickers or zooming is a temporary fix.

They are one of the best for intraday prop firms. great content for education.

Is this new or did I just never notice it? This is on the website not Trader WorkStation.

you use to be able to edit/add this setting in profile area of portal. I bet its gone now w/ zero commissions.

Do you have "free" data or paid on TV?

I am familiar with trade alerts in TWS (IE - alert me when AAPL price reaches below $100.00 and buy at the bid x # of Shares). My question, since stops do not trigger in the afterhours/premarket, can you use this feature as way around that? say I am long MSFT, setting price & trade alert...

I would think a Prop firm you want us to use their platform?

Sorry you had a poor experience. :( I've been thankful for IB in my time. Professional type of broker for us retail folks; but trading liquid names. Not perfect but perfect does not exist.

I've tried what you have tried. Medved I just couldn't get use to. Best combo I found is have separate charting software and just use TWS for the executions. Personal preference between the TC2000, Thinkorswim, Esignal platforms.

Like the title says... Been trying to use TWS for charting to see what it is like, and I just can't see the market the same vs. a 3rd party charting platform (TC2000, Esignal). As robust as TWS is, the charting is well behind others. I get it's a wish list item, but has anyone heard of any an...

On a low time frame, intra-day chart, does anyone know how to fix the current volume bar from wild (inaccurate) movements? It should not spike up to 400+K then spike right back to 50K. Volume is Volume; actual. Here's a 15 second video of ticker TSLA today. Pay attention to the latest volume...

Got Booktrader working (had to back TWS to the Stable vs. Latest). Good stuff, thanks 4 the idea

Nice idea. I tried it out / tested out a few hot buttons in sim tonight. The default buy and sell buttons work great in booktrader, but when I created a custom hot key and/or button (example: buy @ bid price and 0 offset), it places the order WAY up (like 5% higher than current bid). Seems like...

thanks for the post. Yes, would be great to hear the workaround in Booktrader. currently I just have hot buttons for each quantity.

Back up now. Appears server issue of sorts which resulted in server disconnects. I guess we are all human :)

Having issues today within TWS. Can't remember this happening ever.. Is it just me? On hold with CS still.
