Both meet at the generalization (hypothesis, theory) stage an this is where it becomes comical sometimes

http://www.socialresearchmethods.net/kb/dedind.php when you look closer at it there might be not much difference between the two.

There are bad examples of deduction in science when theory and hypothesis are formulated first and if the observations do not fit the theory then instead of discarding the theory the data is being made it fit or simply ignored. This applies to trading as well other than trading is hardly...

Algo cannot buy a seat or be member of an exchange or have bank account or brokerage account.

You understand that order book is smoke and mirrors right? No self respecting trader will let you know through order book what his intention are. Do you see any information in publicly available order book that others don't?

There is a limit of separate connections to TWS - it is about maximum of 8 clients connected that can be handled by TWS. You do not submit anything to IB server directly. It is done through TWS or Gateway. The way to have multiple quotes updating up to maximum of 100 (unless certain conditions...

If there is a bug it is more likely in your program so you have to start there. Assuming that your place order function returns meaning that formatted order string has been sent to TWS it will trigger response/s from TWS. In case of error/information message you can read it in error message...

Are you checking error messages? With regards to order ID you receive next valid order ID from TWS and then you increment it for consecutive orders. If it works in Demo but not real account then the issue might be with account permissions, account type etc.

Trading and investing are two completely different things. Investing relies on pool of money outside of capital markets and is function of what capital investment can return from real economy. Reinvested profits and inflation can add to the pool of capital available to exchange for capital...

I am getting used to new ET board. ET should get credit for hard work and modern design. Yes it takes me a bit longer to scan message board (my initial impression; maybe I will take a note and click on ads because of that) and I would prefer to have recent posts "static" meaning that after...

This is what I was trying to point out: big Greens do not show the same characteristics as big Reds probably because this chart is in 45 degrees uptrend. You would have to check this on something that is in downtrend and also include other chart patterns for confirmation. I was thinking it is R...

In this type of analysis trend is not your friend. When you have time you can run this in choppy or downtrend markets. Are you using commercial tools or putting it together yourself?

Choosing number of clusters is an art not science. You can just "walk" down from highest number (arbitrary choice, max would be number of samples of course) to lowest and see which looks best. Another way to check this is to use test; for example total within sum of squares for centroids or...

another way to look at this is that the function expects: char exampletext[] ={'t','e','x','t'}; and you pass exampletext as a second parameter

what are the input parameters characterizing bars to achieve this bar sort and why did you choose 6 as number of clusters?

string literal "text" is const char[5] (4 + '\0') or you can try const char* as function argument and then pass string literals and deal with array size passing another argument or checking for end of const char array ('\0')

IB API package includes C# interface and this could be the reason ib-csharp one is not as active as before

This link may shed some light on socket loopback latencies: http://blogs.technet.com/b/wincat/archive/2012/12/05/fast-tcp-loopback-performance-and-low-latency-with-windows-server-2012-tcp-loopback-fast-path.aspx They are in microseconds. I am occasionally using sockets between computers on...

New look is sleek and modern but misses the point. It is more time consuming and frustrating to scan messages because one can see only 15 per page with more unnecessary information and lots of blank spaces (nice clutter but still not adding anything of value). In the end it is less attractive...

I did some quick web search for "unimplemented function" with or without msvcr90.dll and it seems that many people have similar problems for various dlls. It looks like Wine is trying to simulate Windows environment but in some cases needs extra help with registry. Try the links below (just do...
