    Where to find TWS 890.6

    Sierra Chart does have (just an ftp server somewhere). I guess IB wants to give users an opportunity to meet each other. 58 now. I never expected it to be so popular - I actually save the last of each new tws (just save the "previous" one on the web page).

    Where to find TWS 890.6

    A while back I put the 890.6 install program on rapidshare because people were having problems with newer TWSs. I just discovered that it had been downloaded 57 times so someone must have wanted it. I'm still running it and its fine (java 1.6.0_13) so if you want it here is the link...

    How to Start TWS from its JTS folder...

    Bob is correct. Its a java app so you need to boot javaw and append appropriate commands. You could run it with a command line like: C:\WINDOWS\system32\javaw.exe -cp jts.jar;pluginsupport.jar;hsqldb.jar;jcommon-1.0.12.jar;jfreechart-1.0.9.jar;jhall.jar;other.jar;riskfeed.jar;rss.jar...

    Problems scalping Forex at IB ? Ip being flagged ?

    You are getting paranoid. But when problems occur it's frequently difficult to identify the issue. IB are not trading against you so scalping means more commission = better for IB. So the question is "what's happening?" You didn't specify a time? Is there a time? There haven't been...

    Trader P/L 2009

    Sympathies. I only faded it twice before my unselfdestruct button cut in and smacked me off my trading chair. Irritated the hell out of me though.

    Also, if you want you can direct it to excel instead. Not that I think you would - but you could :)

    Currency futures vs. Forex

    You (irniger) will find that when the futures are in thin periods their may be divergences. Some are due to opportunistic manipulation - in either direction - and if you can figure out what is being done you can get an edge from it. But it will not be easy - I think you'll find that there are...

    Sierra Charts trade from the screen?

    Although SC correctly states that they don't have built in studies that would use intermediate values you can do it with custom studies (Sierra Chart ACSIL interface). Not impossible or even all that difficult - just not a standard study. You can do almost anything - sometimes the hardest...

    Hype. How long have you worked for Microsoft - I thought they had a policy of revealing themselves now?

    Currency futures vs. Forex

    No. The tail and dog wag each other at different times for the purposes of different participants.

    Windows 7 for FREE as of May 5th

    Correct. You want a partition of its own for W7 (then you can leave your old vista behind). W7 is just smoothed out vista with a new task bar (not so keen on it) and search engine (good). If it runs under vista it is likely to run under W7 --- this is Vista 2.0. Everything should run a...

    Actually they are not. They were when George was the boss. He was a twat. God it was hard to believe anyone could be more moronic than Regan and be "the prez." The rest of the world seems pretty impressed with bo. History will tell whether they are right - part of it is how favourably...

    Know Why I (and some others) Have Never Been More Bearish? - NYT Obama Interview

    This is not the area to apply "moderation." Its like being moderately homosexual. Or moderately christian. Perhaps you don't mean moderation is the key to "all" things. And it certainly isn't the way to form an economic view - thing like this are right, wrong or unproven to varying...

    any IB java api experts? code question

    LOL. You're making yourself sound like an arrogant sod, tradelink. "lowest common denominator" What they've chosen is to offer a no lag feed for those people who don't think they need either: - every tick - every tick now. My guess is that most who fall into those categories aren't...

    I suspect that the profile with Sierra Chart might be the least expensive way of solving this 6 year old question in 2009.

    Windows 7 for FREE as of May 5th

    Well. 1. You would hope that Vista 2.0 would actually boot faster than Vista 1.0 given bill made such a big thing about it. 2. Low memory footprint, cough cough cough ... more disk space than xp, more memory used than xp, less brain required??? 3. Arguably, not particularly. So far...

    Windows 7 for FREE as of May 5th

    Windows 7 has turned out to be Vista Release 2. Its easy to install and works well. The 32 bit is easier than x64 because the 64bit driver signing rules still create issues ... plus there are flash issues with 64bit browsers. Its a nice OS with good feel and more responsiveness than Vista...
