When I say "stop-loss" I don't mean placing an actual order as a stop..but rather if I'm short something, the futures are ticking down..and that stock is going the opposite direction of the futures, I'm going to pay the most attention to that position. If I am down more than .20-.30, If it...

stop out. The winners should/do make up for the losers. cas

Out of all of the trading software i've used over the years (cyber, atfi, firstalert, esignal, BMI, and a few others) esignal has been one of the most relaible/least hassle. Its not perfect..and I have my gripes about it (the ability to only have "one" link between windows), but it works...

As much as I agree about the potential problems created by continual upgrades, I have to say that IB has made alot of improvements over the years....because of those upgrades. They listen to suggestions of traders using the system and then work to incorporate them....are they...

it sounds like Guinn is asking the gross one to be pushed back..but i'm looking for more info in general. This is the overall tax proposal from the State of the State speech last night: http://www.reviewjournal.com/lvrj_home/2003/Jan-21-Tue-2003/news/20517798.html and yes, NV does not...

What link is that on NV gross business tax? A friend of mine was dealing with something like that in CA. Thanks, cas

ok, thanks vhehn..i thought something was strange. I checked those with 2 sources (Esignal and FirstAlert) They must be picking up that NASD print as the open price. Nice pattern on the +.01 then the NYSE prints lower. hmm. thanks, cas

Just wondering if my data is off for today's open..I noticed something interesting (if the data is correct) Stock pclose open C 37.11 37.12 MWD 42.54 42.55 MER 41.98 41.99 GS 73.62 73.63 LEH 58.22 58.23 JNJ...

I demo'd it before....not saying its bad in anyway..just that rather than streaming as symbols hit filters, it pulses as the browser refreshes. I'd get a bunch of symbols all at once, rather than a scroll. cas

The browser update is annoying to me. Maybe its because I've used FirstAlert for so long..but the refresh on the browser kills it for me...even if the filters are good. cas

Other than the 2min rule....hard to say. maybe ask IB to trace the order back the exchange. I send 40 OO orders every morning with IB...I have never really noticed a fill that I thought got missed....but honestly I haven't checked every day/every order in detail. I'd be interested to see if...

No pop-up Friday or Monday AM. Must have been a server based thing. either way, thanks again Def for fixing that...makes trading the first few minutes much easier, rather than just clicking that pop-up 40 times. :-0 cas

def, great....thanks! since we are on the subject of OO's, I have to add my 2 cents in with nitro..indications would be great. Thanks cas

def, the reply is greatly appreciated. Even if a check-box to turn on/off the pop-up was added....if IB really wants to have these type of pop-ups even happen, would work for me. I always do upgrade...for the very reason you state..newer/better features. Now..the short-term...

I send 30-40 orders every day. I never got the pop-up until I went to the newer build....but it is when the OPG turns red. Very annoying...and what is the point? I can see the order cancelled...and know why (because it was out of the price range) The only way we are going to get rid of this...

I posted this on IB's msgs board....but since people here use IB for OpeningOrders, I thought I'd post it here as well.....need to get IB to fix this: http://www.interactivebrokers.com/discus/messages/3/7236.html?1041266420 ************** on the 784.6 build, now I get a pop-up msg when an...

I tried it awhile back, but dropped it as soon as I realized that you can not do charts on the ES or NQ..either intra day or daily. I wanted to watch the ES on 5min charts..simple enough....but not possible. I asked them about it and they said they would add my request for future releases...

Get the 516build on the 7.2 Beta....the high CPU/freezing on fast adv chart moves seems to be fixed. I used to have the same problem. On the beta build, the problem is gone....atleast so far. ES prices almost always match IB. as far as the Eurex..that's a diff issue. cas

Problem with Crabel's book....hard to find......unless someone knows a good place to buy it?? cas

I had serious lag here as well....IB data was way ahead of e-signal cas
