QuoteTracker

Thanks "Steve IB" for your answer. I am convinced I need one of these devices. I do hope the newer ones have bigger numbers so my tired old eyes can see the numbers without reaching for the magnifying glass.

Are the login devices portable and useable on more than one PC so I am not required to trade and access account management from only one PC? I for sure do not want a USB device.

For my KVM needs I use the Aten master view pro 8 and 16 port models and the switching is faster than I can blink. It does require a cord type PS2 mouse.

Do not be afraid to use TWS. It is very easy to use. TWS is by far the best order entry platform I use. However, I have to run TWS and Quotetracker in "RealTime" when both programs are running at the same time on my PC.

cwb1014: At one time IB had a list of routers that were known to work with TWS. In 2002 I bought a router that was on that list (a Netgear FVS318). The Linksys router I was interested in at that time was not on the approved list so I did not buy it. Maybe a good starting point for you would...

I agree with the post on replacing the motherboard battery. When booting, go into your BIOS and look at the voltages of the power supply (3.3V, 5V, and 12V). If any of these are off by more than 5%, replace the power supply. The PC hardware is designed to work with voltages within the 5%...

Lets hope IB will be able to do better next year with error corrections in some of the schedule "D"s. Is IB the only broker providing a schedule D to their customers? IB is the only broker I have that does, so I am not complaining. But, of course IB has to be made aware of these errors if...

I think IB has the greenest grass. Since it is their quote and order platform that is the most important, I wonder if it would be better for TWS users if IB had their charting on a separate software platform?

On every reboot with my PCs.

That sounds logical; However. I have TWS on 2 of my computers and the version field in the registry was 99999 on one and 8647 on the other. Perhaps both are wrong and are not being correctly updated when upgrading TWS. Both computers are running TWS version 867.4. Pete, we need a verification on...

Pete-IB: I thought I read in another IB post on ET that the TWS upgrade version problem you are referring to is going to be fixed in the next TWS version 868. So, does waiting and upgrading to TWS 868 fix this problem without editing the registry? Catoosa

I vote with "ktmexc20" for OpenTick for free plus the exchange fee for what ever you want real time data. Anyone know if Quotetracker can use data from OpenTick? Catoosa

Maybe it is time for IB to move TWS from Java based software. My TWS has four windows open (TWS page with 16 symbols, executions, accounts, and one chart) and uses twice the system resources as the RealTick I have running with over thirty windows with charts and watch list monitoring more than...

This looks like just what I have been looking for, lean and mean too. Does what is needed and no more. Catoosa

Such slanderous statements and assumptions discredit anything you have said, can say, or will say. You need to be marked to forewarn others of your verbal abuse. Sorry, but I can not stand aside and say nothing. Catoosa

Close and reopen RT and you can expect to get different servers. There is a choice of Local: "New York", "Europe", and "Americas" in the "Login" window where you enter your password. Changing the "Local" has generally worked for me. I can not choose the server number as could be done years in...

RealTick has worked great all day for me. If I see a problem with a RT server, I close RT and logon to a different RT server. Sometimes that solves the problem. Catoosa

I sent an e-mail to QT support two days ago and got a reply from Jerry that day at 11.20 PM at night that solved my problem (it was a problem with my hardware and not QT). That is what I call dedicated support. I wish Jerry had not sold QT and started charging enough for the QT use to make the...

I upgraded TWS from Ver 866 to Ver 867.4 and Java 1.5.0_11. I can not find any thing wrong with my page tabs except I can not remove the "detach" and "delete" buttons from the active page (I thought IB posted that this would be an option in ver 867). I did loose my hotkey settings in the...
