I have the same problem. Sometimes IB gets disconnected due to its daily maintenence and when it reconnects, every ticker is gone out of a sudden. It is so frustrating. Trying to restore by previous xml settings file without any success. It would be great if there is a feature which can...

It didn't catch us all of a sudden. HK Observatory provided a pre-warning saying that they may have to hoist No. 8 Typhoon signal on that day. As expected, it finally acted and hoisted the signal. Usually when you notice HK Observatory hoisted No. 3 Typhoon signal. You need to watch out. If...

SWT is not really too corelated nor SGXNK. There is one which is highly correlate to HHI, and this is HSI. Unfortuntately it is closed too. :( I think your best bet is to hedge by the Asian futures. Just pick any one you think the best. Asian markets act roughly on the same way in these few...

The typhoon 8 is officially announced at 14:30 (2:30pm). I received the notice about a few mins or so but from another brokerage (not IB). There is more than enough time for me to close trades. It is denfintely that the message was sent out and many brokerage received it shortly. However it...

I don't know much. But maybe it is (partly) due to its pro-rata calculation. It is explained here: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Interactive_Brokers&oldid=114578306#Commission_and_fees You don't get discounts for all contracts. Each tier of contracts are charged differently...

What about the STW at SGX? It is a Taiwan index. Index STW Underlying: STW Security Type: IND Exchange: SGX Currency: USD Region Name: Asia

IB accrued interest IB accrued interest (talking about the opaque and confusing interest rate explanation on forex): http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=64052&perpage=20 IB official explanation about interest rate charges on its website...

I think the "interest charges" referred to is the interest receivable and payable: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Interactive_Brokers&oldid=114578306#Interest_rates Although they disclose somewhere in the sub-page, most people don't realise the full effect of it if you don't go...

You are also moaning too but just in the area of your own interest. It's just boring.

Do you mean you can still use IB datafeed for market profile analysis (MarketDelta)? I don't think so. Your result will be skewed. Also IB tick has some technical problems (eg IB doesn't timestamp their ticks correctly, no backfeed etc.)

What do you mean by "based on currency"? Please explain that bit. I think this problem can be easily solved if you add the minimum() function when calculating the unbundled price. For example, mimimum(unbundled price of 1st tier, bundled price * 95%) mimimum(unbundled price of 2nd tier...

No, IB does not have true tick-by-tick datafeed. It snapshots the price change every 0.2-0.3 second.

Why IB Staff does not explain the irrationalities of the commission structure? I don't see why it has to be configured in such a weird way.

I updated to 872.6 Seems to be fine.

It is an "all-these-or-those" choice. Choose either unbundled or bundled plan as a whole. You can't pick either bundled or unbundled plan per product. If it were available, it would be fair. Now we need two accounts just to get rid of them. How stupid it is. I'm wondering why no IB staff...

Which version? Can you give me the version number? Thanks.

:confused: :confused: No one knows which is the most stable version?
