Art, If you absolutely want FIX then I suggest you take a look at TT. Their implementation is full featured and service is excellent. Francis

Steve, I love IB but your FIX implementation does not support order book download, account info and fill download. It also required that a Java gateway be running on the local machine. Are there plans to add those improvements and get rid of the Java gateway? Thanks, Francis

You can do this from TradeStation with TradeBullet Francis

Hi Matt, You can do this by setting the properties of the ActiveX instance directly. But this question should be posted on the TWS API forum. Francis

MrTwo: Could you give more details on why Server2003 is better than XP? I'm not familiar with Server2003. Thanks, Francis

That is not possible. Besides, their FIX API is of limited value because it does not provide account statistics, market data, position info, open orders list, etc. Francis
