hi do you know What's WRONG? the Errors occur at the second half of the code text. Thanks for your help! Error messages from AFL editor: -Subscript out of range. you must not access array elements outside 0..(BarCount-1) range. -COM object variable is not initialized or has invalid...

IB's bar contains timeandsales(snapshot). but their 5-second bar is said to be based on true tick data. you can see timeandsales on their chart and download intraday timeandsales for about 3 to 12months(i forgot the period, aslo want to ask someone) through API. to confirm, you can call IB cs.

Thanks, def :) looking forward to the good news.

your point is very very very important. i have only learned to truly understand this survival rule recently. thanks for your reminder :) but you also missed my point: sudden rise of margin is valuable market message. it's often followed by a major attack from bear/bull. it's a crisis, or...

Thanks for your reply, def. some other international brokers i've been with provide major market info on the traded products including margin change. they also provide thousands of products. so i cant agree with your company's arguement but i'm also not going further on this topic. i just...

one or two weeks ago they raised all index futures intraday margin to about 68% or equivilence of the maintenance level. what i also want to say is that every time HKFE raises HSI margin IB is not notifying traders(i dont even mean instant notice which should actually be but morning notice)...

that's why i'm worrying that their participation will greatly change the market pattern or at least make it pattern-less for some time. bad for trading systems. Ohohoh!! r THEY the casue of these days' astronomical volatility!??

Good point. but i guess the abnormal divergence still a greater than bearable risk for most individual traders to go into the trade which i suppose to be mid/long term nature. short term would be too volatile to do?

would be the best if there's tick data available :) Many thanks!

by the way, anybody recieved HKFE's notice of increasing MarginRequirement through IB this moring?

although very easy to be stopped out, the gain is also much larger. if i can choose, i will choose this kind of daily volatility:) but anybody knows HOW LONG will it last?

those so brave to keep their long position from friday, it's 3000pt gain by now :eek:

thousand point volatility for the third day . this is NOT rollercoaster anymore, this is a skycraper-bungie-jump-machine. hahaa

i guess the best way to slaughter yourself is to hold against the CASH price when the futures' preimum is huge. it was -200.

my balls actually cut!!! entry at 20500@2 and lost over 300pts in a glimpse!! :eek: but i get it all back later that morning:D

i see! i got this IBC code from a friend without knowing its origin.

as title.

Thanks for your info!

Thanks! you r so very helpful :) also thanks to Perhapsby and Herman! so you r implying that Herman's code already works in a chronological way? (that is, the fulfillment of condition1 being a prerequisite of condition2's pending state)

You cant see any "cancel submission" because i dont have any. i still a code idiot. just pick up somebody's creation and modify to see if it works for my need. kind of stealth-diy, hahaa so you mean it needs a "cancel variable" for the whole thing to work? i'm not sure the meaning of...
