    More Eurex problems 12/23

    Opening is delayed, that is all I see on their website. Anyone have more info? Preopening for the ESTX50 looked pretty wide: about 20 points. I don't know when their volatility breakers step in but that should not yet be the case? And Bund does not trade too.

    Eurex Problems?

    Just received a bulletin from IB saying that trading at Eurex has been halted due to technical problems at the exchange. And I saw these trades outside of best bid/ask during the last days too.

    Button trader help with forex please

    This is a grave misunderstanding: clicking on the "x" button does not cancel the strategy, it closes your position. Again, you don't "close" the strategy, you exit your position. Only a strategy in "wait" state can be canceled. The strategies are one of the main reasons to use ButtonTrader. If...

    Button trader help with forex please

    This means you are using ButtonTrader 7.00.51.5? And what TWS-version? These are real trades, not simulated trades? If this happens again please provide a screenshot of ButtonTrader and TWS (be sure to hide any personal information).

    The atlantic on a sailing boat

    Hi, I made that trip more than 25 years ago, though on a charter boat with a lot more people. 14m is quite a lot of boat for two people. Essentially you will be sailing single-handedly: one of you will be sleeping, cooking or doing the navigation. You sure have an auto-pilot? Better...

    How reliable is Casper? I'm currently using Acronis True Image (Vista Home 64-Bit) and have several gripes with it: Usually I make an incremental backup every evening, including a verify, and have checked the option to shut down the computer after this operation. When there has been an...

    NEW Heineken Commercial - verry funny

    A Dutch, a French and a German meet in a pub. The Dutch orders Heineken, the French Kronenbourg 1664 and the German - a Coke. "What?" the other two incredulously ask, "Why Coke?" "If you don't drink beer", the German replies, "I won't too".

    What did I do wrong in this chart?

    I don't know NinjaTrader but usually what you see in a Forex-chart (not Forex Futures) instead of volume is the number of trades (=ticks).

    Outdated?

    Your PC should not max out at this kind of tasks, there is a good chance something is "broken". I have used way older and much weaker computers and they did not show this kind of behaviour. Download CPUID HWmonitor and CPU-Z to check the temperatures and Speeds on your board, maybe the CPU...

    Software for IB Users

    The quote limit is a function of the commissions you pay: 100 is the initial value. I have not looked up the latest conditions, but I think you get one more quote for each 8 USD (in commission) above 800 USD. This limit refers to the number of quotes you may receive simultaneously. You can...

    IB and Internet Explorer 8

    Thank you both, both your tips have helped me. I have used FireFox before and remembered what format I had used - this one does not work in IE. I had not tried all options - don't know what it is called in the English version of IE, but something like "html only" does the job. Have a nice...

    IB and Internet Explorer 8

    Hi, I started using Internet Explorer 8 (Vista Home 64-bit) some time ago. So far, so good, but now I have a problem; I cannot download my statements from the IB Account Management site. I open my statement as usual, click "Save page as..", click "OK" and everything seems fine. But...
