There is none available from IB. Jack

Copa: I'd weigh my salary versus the penalty for being caught violating bank policy against the profit potential. I assume that you would have a hard time getting another banking job as you would not be able to use your current bank as a reference. What you would be doing would not be...

Copa: What type of firm do you work for? Large, Medium, Small? Line-of-Business? Jack

The suggestions shown on the Poll are all dated between 8/21, a Monday, and 8/24, a Thursday. There appear to have been approximately 75 suggestions made during that period. Two have been implemented, three have been declined, two are being implemented, and one is scheduled. So action...

If you are not a professional and you open an Advisor Account the Advisor account is responsible for the data fees. If you, as defined in the various NYSE, ASE, and NASDAQ data agreements, are not a professional, you pay only $20 per month or the non-professional fees for other data beyond the...

Kiwi: IB runs a business. They made a business decision to provide snapshots of data and limited backfill. The snapshot approach gets us the latest price and does not suffer the way true streaming data does when dealing with high volume, high velocity trading. Backfill hasn't been...

You set up different account groups and allocation structures and use them when you place the orders. You cannot allocate after a trade is made. The allocation info is in the trade window alongside your bid/ask etc. You setup the page to your liking just as you do now. You change the...

I assume you are an IB customer. If so, log into your account. Go to User Management and Open Select "Voting Subscriptions" If you are not an IB customer you can't vote (or see the poll itself - I think). Jack

Not sure what your adjective(?) means in reference to the noun chart but if you open the attached chart and click on it it will enlarge such that it can be read with ease. Compare to the Hyposculator and the Hypenvelope for utility ad ease of use. Efficacy is under review. Jack

There is nothing that would prevent anyone from opening a thread here on ET to discuss any suggestion brought up for a vote on the IB site. One of the problems with this particular thread is its catch-all nature. (although that was not its intent). By starting a thread here on ET about a...

I'm not familiar with Multicharts. However, if I remember the reviews in the software section of this board there was some question as to how well it interfaces with the IB datafeed. You might read through the reviews. Jack

Did you click apply at the bottom of the window after you made the change? I made the change to GTC after the market closed today. Closed TWS and then reopened. The GTC was still there. I also setup an order and it showed GTC. I left the GTC setup and shutdown TWS for the night. I'll...

In TWS Main Menu: Configure>Order>Order Defaults>Time In Force Select GTC from Pull Down Window Note that you can set different vehicles (stocks, options, futures, etc.) to different defaults. The above will set stocks. Jack

XP same as you. TWS standalone. Java 1.5.0_07 I see that there is a new beta version of the browser-based TWS. I'll download it to my non-trading machine and see what happens to the clock. Jack

jpatet: What operating system are your running? What version of TWS? What version of Java? Jack

I've noticed the following: My system uses Dimension 4 ( www.thinkman.com ) to time sync. I open only TWS. The TWS server time box shows within 20 seconds of the PC time. After some period of time that varies between 3 minutes and 20 minutes the TWS server time has corrected to match the...

I wonder what heat when it is cold and air conditioning when it is hot will do to that 250 mile range? Didn't see anything on te web site about it. Jack
