Thanks pstrusi for the code. After several hours around this issue I ended by settling with a datagridview solution to get the position value I needed.

Hi HobbyTradding, Yes, I want to get the position just for the (single) symbol selected in the montage.

Thanks Steve, I've already run through those tutorials. Unfortunately, they are based on older API versions and I'm not able - do not have the required programming skills - to adapt them to the current API.

Hi, I'm building a c# api program to create a montage more friendly than TWS's interface. However, as a novice programmer I'm hitting some walls. The latest one is how to get the position information, namely the size and average cost, for the contract selected in the montage (combobox, or...

Hi, Does anyone knows if it possible to set different workspace sizes between layouts? I would like to set some layouts that maximizes the monitor space available, but others that would keep some space available for webpages, excel and other apps. The only way I found was by saving different...

The same happens in mine

Thanks Guru. Do you know if there's a way to reduce/adjust the studies displayed below the price chart?

Does anyone knows how to adjust the volume chart's height in TWS relative to the correspondent price chart above it? Thanks

Thanks for the ideia, it might be a solution. I will explore into it

Does anyone know how to set Hotkeys or Hot buttons to place an order with a size based on the position. As an example: I'm in a long position of 1500 shares of XYZ and want to take a partial at the market - p.e. 25%/375sh. Since I vary the size according to the risk of each trade, the solution...

I recently opened an account in IB and I'm taking the first steps into the TWS platform. Coming from several year trading on Colmex platform I feel IB-TWS's is like driving a 10 wheeler. From what I managed to search in the forum, there is a historical problem regarding stop losses and...
