    Which AMD mobile chip: Sempron, Athlon 64, or Turion 64?

    1. I know Sempron chips have less cache. But Laptops with Sempron chips are about $200 cheaper than the other 2 AMD chips, for the same clock speed. Does anyone know how much impact does the less cache have on trading software? In other words, do trading software take advantage of extra cache of...

    IB - PLEASE stop those new "features"

    The question is: how much longer will IB allow us to continue running build 854? Does IB publish an expiration schedule for previous builds?

    IB order types: Pegged to Primary = Relative Orders?

    Thank you, samaritan. Has anyone verified that relative orders with zero offset roll back? I tried to test it with paper trading and edemo accounts. Neither gave me a definitive conclusion because the orders I submit in these demo accounts are not actually placed onto the book.

    Why is RTH(Regular trading hours only) not valid for some stocks?

    I use IB. This morning I got the "Regular trading hours only flag is not vald for this order" popup when I try to buy some shares of stock WOLF. I have never seen this popup before. Anyone know what's special with this stock? Thanks.

    Are odd lot limit orders "invisible"?

    Please excuse my ignorance, but I am still confused. Is my order of 90 shares displayed on ECN books as 90 shares at 50.31, or 100 shares at 50.32? According to j_medved, odd lot orders can not be shown on level II. Does that mean level II should show my order as 100 shares at 50.32, thus...

    Are odd lot limit orders "invisible"?

    I use IB's Smart route. Sometimes when I try to close out an odd lot position(like 83 shares, 98 shares...etc), I place a limit sell order between best bid and ask. I noticed my order didn't show up as the best Ask. It looked like a hidden order. So the question is: Are odd lot limit orders...

    Finally, a stripped down TWS made possible with new build 854?

    Just ran some tests. When I start TWS with all features selected, javaw uses 68M of RAM. Then I de-selected all features, javaw RAM usages doesn't decrease. But if I close TWS and let it start with all features disabled, it uses 65M of RAM. it saves only 3M, not much, but it shows something...

    Finally, a stripped down TWS made possible with new build 854?

    I am playing with the beta version of 854. It looks like with the new "Feature Selector", you can run a stripped down TWS without any bells and whistles. Isn't that what many ETers have been asking for for quite a while? If I de-select all the features and restart TWS, The memory usage is...

    Seeking solution: IB's basket order doesn't support attached orders

    I have talked to IB on the phone quite a while ago. The IB support guy said he'd register my request but there's no ETA. They enhanced basket order functionality at builder 845, but the support of attached orders wasn't there.

    Seeking solution: IB's basket order doesn't support attached orders

    Currently I am using IB's basket order function to load bunch of stock orders into TWS to execute. It has been working perfectly for me, but there's one feature I need that is not supported by basket orders. I need every order to have an attached "profit taking" limit order. Since my...
