Thanks nitro. I just ordered it from Amazon. BTW, so that's where "MAE" comes from. Thanks again.

Just to add to your confusion :) , also check out thinkorswim (www.thinkorswim.com) they have a great interface and good commissions (not as good as IB) & they don't charge for special routing (IB does), cancels (IB does with exchange directed orders) and don't have minimums. They also allow...

You're working late :) Thanks a lot.

Thanks. I just started playing around w/ IB's DDE and have made SOME (not a lot by any means) of progress. Yeah, today was a very big ? day for me, I'm very glad the guys here have been willing to oblige. Take care. :)

Thanks a lot guys for the recommendations. :)

I've been over to IB's boards (not today) & didn't see an answer, but I'll take a look again. Thanks; hopefully def will chime in. :)

How do you know this?

IMHO, I think you see this with the ES because of the S&P pit. Stops can be hit there by locals and big money. And what happens in the pit during the day will also happen to some extent w/ GLOBEX. So I think the ES is just mirroring the subtle manipulation that's happening with the big S&P. I...

Thanks for your insight and you may be correct (except for liquidity as the Q's are often the most liquid option out there), but I think the DJX spread has more to do with them only trading in Chicago. Which makes me wonder if the DIA's are a better instrument, albeit they are probably not...

Thanks a lot guys, very much apprecaited.

Thanks a lot, that's very nice information. Thanks again.

Is that response for me? Because it seems that setting a time or manually cleaning up trades is not the same as ensuring that a stop intended to close out an order does not open one. Again, maybe I'm missing something.

Def, Here is my problem with using hotkeys (I'm still an IB newbee, so maybe I'm just missing something). When you place a buy limt bracket trade, two limts and a stop are created. The lower buy limit is for enty, the higher buy limit is exit and the sell stop below the market is for...

:) very funny :) Ambush, The main problem I'm trying to solve is when I look at daily DJI OHLC chart the O is useless. Now what exactly I'll be doing with the O, I'm not sure, but I'd like to know what it would be taking into account the opens of all 30 Dow stocks. I was hoping some...

Also isn't it true that PD doesn't do the minis? Do you have a fastest recommendation for those?

PD's faster than IB? (I'm expecting a "YES DUMMY" as the ans. :) ).

I've been working on a short term (seconds to minutes holding)trading system on the ES and YM. The entry is hard, but the exit is making my brain go numb. Seriously. Figuring out resonable profit & stop loss targets is very difficult. Do I use a fixed amount? Do I adjust the levels as the market...

Do any of you trade the other minis out there like the 10 or 30 yr bonds, metals, or ags? Do you like them? Thanks!

Heard a lot of good things about Matrox. They seem to be the standard for multi monitor cards.

I've been reading some research by the ISE, of course, saying they beat the other exchanges 90% of the time across all options that they make markets for. In your humble or not so humble (metooxx :) :) :) )opinions, do you agree that the ISE is generally the best exchange to send orders to...
