    Problem with IB quotes, Frozen Previoud Day Close

    I had this happen today with NEM, only the quotes worked fine for the first hour or so, then the last trade froze, bid-ask continued to work. Continued all day, no other stocks had the problem that I'm watching. I'll give your suggestion a try if it's still doing it tomorrow. OldTrader

    Best wireless internet

    I use the Sprint 3G right now. But I would probably upgrade to Sprint 4G now. And as the poster above said, it is unlimited usage. Like he also said, there are some areas 4G doesn't work in, but you still connnect in 3G. You can check your area out via a map they have. I think Sprint is...

    IB TWS Build 905 - Does anyone has the intaller .exe?

    Just an observation. Your idea to download the older version is only a temporary fix for the problem. You can currently use either ButtonTrader or ZeroLine Trader as a front end with IB. Both are good. Then your problem is solved...you don't have to use an older version. OldTrader

    BookTrader's new recentering feature!!

    Actually I did try BookTrader with the confirmation box. I had the same impression as you did...the box came up roughly where my mouse was, so it was easy and quick to confirm. I too always use limit orders. I would say that those who are trying to scalp might have a problem with this. I'm...

    BookTrader's new recentering feature!!

    Evidently you're still using BookTrader despite the new requirement of clicking a confirmation box. What's your experience with that? What type of trading do you do? OldTrader

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    Evidently you see some type of problem? You'll need to be somewhat explicit. By the way, I've used both with zero problems. So I'll look forward to your answer. OldTrader

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    The bottom line is that you can go to either ButtonTrader, or ZeroLine Trader. Both are good front-end solutions for IB. OldTrader

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    Did you even bother to read this thread??? Evidently not. I would suggest you go back and read some of the posts so that you don't look like such a dumbass. If you do, you will notice that IB is evidently being sued by TT for patent infringement over their booktrader. So my guess is that...

    Mark Haines of CNBC is a A-Hole

    You mean you're willing to draw this conclusion based on two incidents? Aside from the fact that you and Haines evidently were more than willing to distort the Bush record. Did you forget the bull market we had AFTER the taxes were lowered, along with the ensuing economic boom? AFTER that...

    Your Thougts on Real Estate Commission

    I have bought and sold many, many houses over the course of my adult life, both rental properties and personal homes. There have been very few times when I did it without an agent. Those were times when I was going to finance, and felt I had an advantage that I could advertise. When I hire...

    It is not hard to see why BP boss is hated

    This guy was treated pretty badly by the Congressmen and the media. I thought he handled it well. He seems to be soft-spoken, from Scotland, so that some of his mannerisms and speech are not the norm here in the States. If I were going to be embarrassed it would be by the Congressmen....the...

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    I would say they're comparable in terms of speed. I had them side by side and couldn't tell the difference. But Zeroline does have a 30 day free trial. Give it a shot. You can try it in simulator mode to get used to it. OldTrader

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    I tried to download 906 tonight, wanted to see what they've done. It's not downloading as a standalone upgrade. Standalone upgrade is still on 905.4. Either that, or they rolled it back themselves. In the meantime, I downloaded Zeroline today and gave it a try. Works well and inexpensive...

    Has this NIGHTMARE happened to anyone?

    How much do you think Toyota makes on a gas pedal??? The fact is that in the legal system it makes no difference how much the profit is on a product that fails. Imagine yourself as MacDonalds being sued by someone who just spilled hot coffee on their lap and was burned. How much does...

    Has this NIGHTMARE happened to anyone?

    I've seen some guys get refunds after they came on ET and raised hell. Gave the broker some negative feedback. But in your case, you don't mention the broker name, kinda like you're protecting them. I think you're acting like a complete wuss. I'd say you need to forget about it, don't fight...

    Goldman sold BP Right Before Spill

    What's the point here exactly? That Goldman somehow knew about the oil spill months in advance, and sold thus taking advance of their clients???? Whoever wrote this article deserves the moron of the day award. OldTrader
