    New HSI trading hours

    The current hours are: http://goo.gl/pz19l From 7 March they'll change to: http://goo.gl/NS3Fk That means an earlier opening, earlier lunch hour and earlier afternoon opening. So: 9:45 to 12:30 and 2:30 to 4:15 becomes 9:15 to 12:00 and 1:30 to 4:00 I guess the...

    Best Charting App For IB

    Although Ninja has been the main topic I would recommend Sierra Chart. It's not free but its hardly expensive for a trader and it gives a lot of potential freedom should you need it in future. One example that I don't think others are emulating is that you can combine IB's 5 second (accurate...

    Viable (not prohibitively high commish) alternative 2 Interactive Brokers 4 Hang Seng

    Search the site: the question has been asked. OEC were the great white saviour - guess what - it appears they are not. I have traded HSI with IB for over 6 years. Last weeks outage was far worse than anything else I've experienced. The prior biggy was a hurricane outage where some people...

    Any traders living in Costa Rica

    Actually DDT is banned everywhere; and the rest of us are generally happy not to live under the FDA or know what a beeve might be. I guess ignorance is bliss.

    Interactive Brokers HK server down. hey IB it's nearly 2011 you clowns

    Risk management is a large part of the reason I'm still posting here. Edge, discipline, emotional awareness, risk management. I didn't have a position still open yesterday, but I've had them during various surprising events. I had positions during 9/11. I didn't go lose control then...

    NEW IB TWS Old Version Available

    Version 908 is at: http://rapidshare.com/files/436159046/tws40_install_908_Oct_4_install_prev.exe I'd still prefer 906.9 if it was available. Will anyone upload the file somewhere?

    Interactive Brokers HK server down. hey IB it's nearly 2011 you clowns

    Woodark that is actually a pretty stupid post. Not the most stupid I've seen in ET but up there with the best of them. I've traded HK with IB for over 5 years. The last time I lost a session like this was about 4 years ago and it was caused by local flooding at my end. So 1 session in 5...

    Interactive Brokers HK server down. hey IB it's nearly 2011 you clowns

    Both backfill and 5 second now working. If you guys could be kind enough to beg or steal some data and fill in the missing bits during the weekend that would be helpful. Do give your switch supplier a kick in the axxxx for us though!

    NEW IB TWS Old Version Available

    OK. With the recent mandatory upgrade to 906 or above I failed to get a copy of 906.9. So I tried 908 ... but didn't like it. So I have settled on 907.7 which, at least for me, seems to be working fine. If anyone wants it (sorry I failed to see your pms) I have uploaded it to...

    The other thing that is dead is the 5 second feed ... nothing is coming through. Backfill is also currently still dead.

    Interactive Brokers HK server down. hey IB it's nearly 2011 you clowns

    Yes. My backfill is dead too. (20m into 2nd session) I guess its an early weekend. Def, it would be helpful for our records at least if the backfill files were filled with data from somewhere when we come back on Monday.

    The real truth of Trading- Read it once, you will not be Disappointed.

    Or maybe there are a bunch of ways of either making or losing money with trading. The op's mentor thinks he has found the truth. And it might be for him. But it won't be for others. Thank fucking christ really. (see if that doesn't offend the choir)

    LMAX = Revolution ?!

    I could open an account with them (I reside in multiple countries). But add my vote for "NOT excited." Look at the parentage and think about the genetics coming down through the children. Yuck. Hint: At the moment they only have 3 liquidity providers (goldman, jpm and optiver) and...

    Tired of unavailable shorts at IB

    So, is this a reliable indicator that the market is going to have a down day?

    IB TWS Old Version Available

    So, given that I am happy with IB and use Sierra Chart for charting and order entry (so need none of that stuff from TWS) but still want to use TWS: - what is the smallest, solidest, lowest bug build since 905? I believe I have the last 907 and 908 builds but didn't collect 906.

    LOL. I bet it won't. 100% guaranteed. You'll be fulfilling your rightful place in the world: a quarry for Asia.
