Interesting. So if you disagree with or satirize any Jewish person then you're anti-Semitic. Even if they're a megamaniacal jerk. Brilliant.

"Dumb money" is all that's left buying at this point.

Wow! POTUS ends many of his tweets with "Sad!"

IB Gateway is your best alternative. It uses way less RAM and CPU than the TWS. If you use Gateway make sure you change the API port. The default API port for TWS and Gateway are different.

Nope, it's easy in Python

USA Toady? No great loss. However I haven't noticed anything unusual.

Under the analyze tab in the Positions and Simulated Trades pane there's a menu button to the right. The Import Trades menu item does it. Just keep in mind you can't directly import trades from IB into TOS. The import is for TOS-formatted exported trades.

Sadly there's not much in IB's 3rd party app collection for option trading, at least not a direct TOS replacement. OptionVue is probably the best for risk graphs, modeling and greeks but it's an expensive subscription.

You're referring to his sudden price increase of a popular drug and subsequent eye-rolling testimony before Congress? Why can't he do what he wants with what's his?

With some massaging, yes. I run an activity report, save it as a text file and run it through a custom Python script to get the TOS import/export format.

The risk navigator isn't up to where the TOS analysis tools are. Here's a little secret: Do you trading on IB TWS, do your analysis on an unfunded TOS account. You can import a trade log from IB to TOS with a little massaging and track your trades in real time there with *nice* risk graphs.

Depends on a number of factors. For index options they're almost equal. IB passes along exchange fees but TOS eats them. Also, people gag on the TOS ticket charge of $6.95 but if you're trading 10+ contracts it doesn't matter.

Well sure it's a fun hypothetical thought experiment. Just like stock if the company issues more shares the value gets diluted. Still it's literally impossible with BTC. Now anything is possible with some other cryptocurrency; it's totally up to the designers.

If you mean the original Bitcoin (BTC), it is not possible to increase the number of them. It was fixed at about 21 million from the start and is inherent in the algorithm.

Somewhat related, Theresa May recently proposed a complete ban on encryption (never let a terrorist attack go to waste). Totally unworkable and impossible like many financial "fixes".

Anyone here trading DOM on ES with TWS? Out of morbid curiosity I've been trying to get either BookTrader or Market Depth Trader working. I believe I have the market permissions set up correctly but I can't see the bid/ask sizes at the different levels on BookTrader (blank).

OMG all this time I thought it was "bastards of the universe"

supposedly there are guys that can predict the next price move better than 50% of the time.

Hmmm. I wonder how many people will pay an extra $50/month just to be nice.

I know OP was talking about domestic energy production but I know we're exporting a lot of coal. I live near a major east-west CSX line and see full coal trains heading east to Baltimore pretty frequently. To address OP's natural gas pipeline question: While it sounds good on paper, putting...
