Hi all, so I've noticed that quite a few of you are wanting a reliable source of earnings data and dates. Also implied volatility and historical vol. This is not an ad as we have no fiscal relationship with them, It's just a clean, easy and accurate alternative to the other sources we use...

first of all thank you so much for this information, really useful. It's not what we were looking for BUT that's our fault for asking such a vague question. This is the question we SHOULD have asked. "we were watching a 1 hour chart of the SPX and a bar suddenly went an OLIVE green NOT the...

Hi there we have started to look more closely at Tws and there are situations where we don't really understand what the symbols and colors are "telling" us. Is there a cheat sheet for deciphering this stuff? thanks

thanks Hari you got any idea how to configure it or turn it off?

thanks for the considered advice, we'll certainly take it onboard.

Hi all I want to get a range for the major trading pairs IE EUR.USD and need to find how to find the value below on TWS implied volatility for the EUR.USD can anyone help please? thank you

Thanks @HobbyTrading bit embarrassed that I didn't do the right research myself. Thanks for helping out. I promise to do better next time :-)

WOW thanks for finding the link @HobbyTrading I don't really want to risk running my data pump app against a machine that I am trading on. The app can be running on a machine of it's own as IB api lets you do that BUT I'm concerned that the process of getting the data will effect the trading...

thank you @DiceAreCast
