Done for the day.... + 1371

+ 548 intraday, the rest from an overnight.

A good day to start posting here... +1478

Well I started off the year in mediocre fashion: 8 fills for $435. Surprised I ended up with that much--had some glitches getting a new computer running, and made a bad mistake on a new stock. Very happy with the strategy though--my first and so far only intraday strategy. I started...

It's also overrun with tourists. Naples isn't, and Rome is big enough to absorb them.

PS. Any trains or buses to the park? There are a number of towns in it, there'll be at least a bus to each. But that'd take too long for for a day trip.

ACM, It could've been much worse! I have a very similar swing system that's completely automated, and I'm not at my computer during the day. So I picked up a pile of NFLD and didn't get out until the next morning. Like yours, though, my system is still up about 45% for the year. And...

Abruzzo to the east, the Simbruini to the south. Leave Rome around 7:30, park the car by 9, and by 1 you're having lunch at 2000 meters. Of course there are easier hikes, but I usually aim for about 1000 meters of climbing. Unfortunately winter has finally hit, and I won't be going out...

Roma . . . .

Well, I go hiking in the mountains almost every week, and I can assure you that your chance of running into a large wild animal here is extremely small. Usually I hardly hear even any brids. In Canada you see bears, deer etc all the time--go there if you want wild animals. But really, why...

I was expecting more today too, but it turned out quite well: only 3 fills (less than average), but +1000 (better than average) Don, you mentioned an MOC strategy a while back; are you thinking of starting a thread on that in January?

... but be careful of using this approach to a woman! :)

English is based in many Italian words, that helps since I'm older and don't learn as quick. More formal English vocabulary is based on Latin, which is of course the root of Italian. A good trick when you're starting out is to think of the formal English word for something and 'Italianize'...

dcraig, Is that an issue for you because of the number of issues you follow, or because of differences in the data sent to TWS vs your charting program? I admire your work in Jcharts so much I've been thinking of working up my Java programming to be able to do something similar, and would...

One thing to keep in mind with these large monitors is that the text becomes smaller and smaller (more pixels per square inch). I find the 19 inch the largest I want to work with for text, and still use my 19 inch as my main monitor even though I have a nice 24 inch right next to it. Also...

With any interface you remain limited by the IB API. None of the existing interfaces (python, perl, etc) add anything. They just allow you to choose a different language to work in. I've been using Ruby for my IB ATS for the last 8 months and love it. I find it much easier and faster to...

Well, given the other evidence we have of his sense of humor, it seems all to likely to be him. You can even make out the typical grin on his face afterward. But probably a doctored clip, else as you say we would have heard of it. btw andread, my 'name' comes partly from the place...

Other European countries have a much stronger sense of a social collective and the rule of law. Italy is still familial and tribal in many ways, and there is a good deal of admiration for those who 'get away with it'--hence the admiration for longstanding corrupt political figures...

Try this: http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/control/twscontrol.php?ib_entity=llc Also a good idea to open a trouble ticket, I'm sure they don't want us to stop these orders. I never upgrade until a few weeks have gone by, and I've checked the API and other boards at IB. And then I...

I'm using TWS 862.9a with no problems. (Other than 8 fills each of the last 2 days, which is too much for my multitasking ability!) Might be worth checking the IB bulletin boards, or just going back to the previous version.
