how does the cash injection work exactly? the original investors of the fund get their money back, and the new investors get a percentage of future fees? seems like the fund is just getting more investors, in which case it's not really a "cash injection" like the cash is going on the balance...

c'mon, why don't you guys just build something that will work seamlessly so that i and many others will purchase multicharts? i know it's a big project, but it has to be done. besides, traderassistant's TADLLClient doesn't work very well even with tradestation. their TATCClient does work...

Andrew, This functionality is absolutely important. I just don't understand why you don't see this. Many system builders will not even bother evaluating Multicharts if it can't handle multiple strategies on a single contract. Perhaps this is why you haven't received more requests. They...

i have tested it fairly extensively. the problem is more than go flat orders. bottom line is that if you have more than one strategy per market, auto-trade will not work properly.

mind if i ask how they found you? :) pm me if you like.

i don't see how any of the other parts of multicharts matter when it can't seep track of the position size of each strategy. bottom line is you can't use it to trade. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=100858

What is the most secure remote pc access software? I cannot use the built-in Windows XP Pro Remote Access.

i did not mis-state the problem. two strategies in separate workspaces. one strategy per workspace. the orders will interfere with each other. they are not independent. if you look at the link i provided, TSSUPPORT agreed that this is how it works but they won't fix it!

i think that's a ridiculous solution. if a trader has 5 strategies, then he'll need to open 5 brokerage accounts. no trader will do this. he will simply not use multicharts.

If you are running two strategies, each with its own workspace, the orders from one strategy will intefere with the other strategy. Multicharts cannot keep track of the position of each strategy. For example, say Strategy A long 5 contracts and Strategy B generates a sell short order...

why would the fund have 0 value if citadel doesn't buy it? citadel bought at a discount, so obviously there's still some value, correct?

sure wish TWS can just do this simple thing.

i know that would seem logical, but say you are in a situation where you want to close the position when the market closes. in this case, the order from the automated strategy is sent too late because it will wait until the bar to close before sending the order. i want to sent it maybe 10...

fielman, i don't know if i'll need to buy or sell at the GAT. i just want to close all open positions. Example: at 900, i turn on an automated strategy. i leave my computer. this automated strategy can be long or short at various times of the day. at 1500, i'm not back yet, but i...

what if my GAT is, say 1500, and i don't know if i'll have a long or short position at that time. how can i set it up to just close the position (i.e., buy if short, sell if long). i can't make the entry order and OCA order.

is there a way to get GAT order to close any open positions? or do you have to specify a buy or sell trade?

thanks. that did the trick. do these orders sit with IB Servers or on the client's desktop?

hey rayl, I don't have the "Good After Time" field at all! do you know what's ging on?

Does anyone know how to set this up in TWS? I don't have the choices as described in the user guide. http://www.interactivebrokers.com/php/webhelp/webhelp.htm#Making_Trades/Create_Order_Types/good_after.htm

please elaborate. what can it do that other products labeled "retail" can't?
