    Esignal problem/question

    I even find the little Copyright 2003 eSignal at the lower left hand side of every chart to be annoying at times, as it also overlays data. I wish the developers could shift its position so that this never occurs.

    Realtick down?

    I nearly posted a similar thought this morning, but decided it might be in bad taste to do so: It had occurred to me that having a known group of market participants at a disadvantage was a good opportunity for a reversal, like when Globex was down a few months back and the SPX made a V-bottom...

    conners vix buy signal today

    vhehn, Is it important to now use VXO for the CVR signals, or do you expect the revised VIX to not show much difference?

    Investing in managed futures (MLM Index)

    The FAQ here makes me think you should pay the stock trading commissions for these, even though they have features of both futures and stocks: http://www.trakrs.com/faq.asp I wonder how most brokers are handling this.

    Commodities basket

    I'm not sure if this would be any more permissible for you, but it starting trading in July and is a commodities futures index with many securities-type features: the ability to be held in securities accounts, pricing and margin more like a stock, and a distant contract expiration date of June...

    Commodities basket

    Can anyone recommend a discount futures broker for trading the GSCI? Though the CME says the contract trades on Globex as well as the pit, Interactive Brokers doesn't seem to have it.

    Michigan sentiment

    This is due today at 9:45. I believe Bloomberg.com pointed out a while ago that you can pay to subscribe to this and know what it is going to be before it is announced. So any plunge on it being "worse than expected" may just be easy money for those accounts. There are other surveys such...

    Esignal Decimal Points for the Eminis?

    It was reported to eSignal and they acknowledged it as a problem due to a bad server file that they are replacing with the prior working one. It was wreaking havoc on bond futures traders who were no longer seeing price quotes in 32nds.

    Another IB TWS Hotkey question

    The default hotkeys that use a left mouse click work fine. Those I set up using Ctrl + Left Click and Alt + Left Click also work. But when I set up a hotkey with Shift + Left Click and try it, nothing happens. Is this just a problem peculiar to my system? Does a hotkey using Shift + Left...

    Time And Sales vs. TWS

    I've seen that eSignal - at times - shows several prints for ES for each one that I see in TWS. If IB "lumps" some, that could be the answer. I've also recently seen a few ES trade sizes of 400 - 600, when the contract limit is supposed to be only 250.

    Sorry, I somehow overlooked the active month, August. Thanks.

    Gold and Silver mini

    Of course I checked the CBOT web site first. It said that YG is supposed to now trade from 8:15 PM CST to 4 PM CST. I do not see that happening in TWS, and that is why I was asking.

    Gold and Silver mini

    I added YG to my IB quotes page, but it always seems to be closed. For example, today, 7/21/03 at 7 PM, the August 2003 contract has a "last price" of C347.30, with no bids or offers. For the July 2003 contract, it says C347.20. I don't see any activity during the day either. Does anyone...

    Has ET been down all day???

    I also tried to get on numerous times from 3:00PM to 7:00PM to see what was being said about the latest Globex ES fiasco. I could ping the server but could not access the web site.

    Globex or TWS problems currently?

    TWS is updating very slowly since 10:00 and missing many of the ES fills that I see happening in eSignal. Anybody else seeing problems?

    TWS screwey since yesterday afternoon (6/12)

    That was almost exactly the same time period that I was unable to connect.
