I usually do my forex trades in another account, but I am on insufficient margin right now. Since this trade will affect this account's balance, I will report it here: USD/CHF long 25K @ 1.2460

SMI stopped out @ 8208, +89 pts. A break of 8200 on SMI will be bearish for the next few days. Will be looking to short below 8200. I am short the ESTX50 already.

GBL added 1 more long @ 117.27

ESTX50 short 1 @ 3819

GBL stopped out 1 @ 117.21, -13 pts. Still holding 1 long from 117.30 I believe the Eurex problem was exploited to hit some stops at the re-open. Still bullish, and looking to re-enter a 2nd contract.

I can't login to TWS anymore... IS THIS A JOKE OR WHAT?!? IB is taking the opportunity of Eurex downtime to restart its systems? :D

Great.... now TWS went down.... trying to re-login. Anyone has the same problem?

anyone knows a game we can play until they are up again? I am a bit bored...

Anyone knows what's happening right now?

Great .... 9:05 CET and all Eurex data are down... Eurex problems again?

9:03 CET and SMI is still on pre-opening... What's happening?

ESTX50 out @ 3810, +62 pts. Decided to get out. I don't like it, and I can most probably get another entry <3810 tommorow morning. I am still long 1 SMI anyway, so if rally continues uninterupted I will be in. It looks like GBL has potential to rally hard from here, and I am still long 2...

I see some volume pattern in 30min charts which tells me to get out here (around 3810) of my ESTX50 longs. But then, I would have no long position anymore, and we are still in uptrend.....

Not true. Your logic is flawed. We don't do 10 trades and expect 3 winners so 1 winner less will hurt. We do thousands of trades. A million trades for a million dollars. Asymptotically, a winner less in thousands of trades, will not hurt more a 30% winrate system than 70% one.

ESTX50 stopped out 1 @ 3791, -8 pts.

Actually, I had the same problem sometime ago. I used: - demo TWS + API - demo java client and I couldn't get any demo historical data. Can someone please confirm that it's possible and not disabled in the demo versions, so I look elsewhere for solving the problem?

I don't confuse anything. You didn't answer my question about busted transactions at IDEAL which take place between bid-ask but >0.5% off the market. Also, the "Timeliness of Notification" problem I mentioned in my previous post it happened at IDEALPRO. Your rules should apply to all of...
