For about a minute and a half book trader with YM would freeze for about 2 seconds. This was during the final drop to -900 on the DOW and then the quick rise.

We were getting close to limit dwn for a min or 2.

Wow !! for about 10 min it was Jammed.

dont want to answer ... ???

Emilia ... what do you love most.

I agree with your statement. Seems to be the case in my experience with IB. When i have run into a problem with TWS ive come here and started a thread explaining the issue. Using clear, non-prejorative language gets the best results from the IB reps monitoring ET. What issues are you having?

No...No... this happened AFTER the two server resets approx 11:02 and 11:24 CDT. Started about 11:40p CDT. Cleared up a few minutes later.

Using IB U.S. servers. PingPlotter ck to IB servers OK. no data last 15min + NYBOT data ok. anyone else?

Worked like a charm. Thanks e. u. for taking the time to show me the workaround.

IB NOT the problem...see original post. Has something to do w QT not adjusting for "partial day" i suspect. Oh well ... game over untill next time.

Trading on Globex until 9:15 eastern. Problem was happening several hrs before that.

Charts for es/ym quit working several hrs before the early close. Not the first time this has happened.

Charts for es/ym not updating. DX IS updating Charts. es/ym updating in TWS. QT quote panel IS updating es/ym. anyone else having this problem?

I'll go with ES and YM. One sht and one long. One strat. is do simultaenous mkt orders. Of course you get reduced perf bond as well...but more commish. A few little problems crop up though.:D Like just when to pull the hedge on the loser. Manual trading - you're often gonna have to work...

+1 .... up or dwn, the fun aint over yet, buzzzee.

For BS ... Now, here's what you have going for you. You've won and lost your own money. Worked at a futures trading firm. More experience. Not afraid to say you lost money there - got fired. Saved up 10K. Keep it up. Save lots more! Job at brokerage. Execellent! Stay with it-...

Quote from rcj: BS dont like the poker angle. dont like idea of quitting the brokerage job. With little expenses you say you have you should be able to save thousands of $$ in about 36 mo or so. dont like quitting job AND trying to trade with ONLY 10K. This is just utter Bullshit...
