As soon as it is ready I will post it online.

of things. The program itself is not a system, it is a program or interface. The algorithms developped sort of plug into the program. That is probably why you thought the program couldn't go LIVE yet. I have a couple of algorithms already programmed that I have to test. Checked out your site...

are not implemented yet and they won't be for quite some time. They are not part of the core program. You don't really need them in most situations. I want to experiment with them first.

of my own work. I've developped an automated trading system completely modular in C/C++ GTK under Linux. It is interfaced with TWS API (bypassed the annoying TWS window connection socket yeeshhh). The feed will probably come from MyTrack which offers a pretty good API. It's going live in a...

I'd like to know how many traders actually automate their trading strategy and if any are profitable in the long run letting the system trade on its own. If you could expand on what type of strategy you use, that would be great (gaps, moving average, MACD). I also wanna know how many of you...

this is a ridiculous approach to statistics. If you were able to foresee in advance a trend such as two winning trades / two losing trades / two winning trades, you wouldn't be playing around with statistics would you, you'd program your system to do just that. Unfortunately, the market is...

Amazing... Didn't take a position in it, but really bad ass price action!

add a CTRL or ALT to your hotkey, like CTRL S would be to sell, it would limit errors and would not trigger any orders if you were to type in the S in MSFT or such.

What the hell is going on with IB quotes today? Anyone experiencing some kind of lag? Bid being over Ask (although taht's great in theory) I don't think it's playable :) Tell me what you IB folks are experiencing.

when there are no short sale rule? You can go short an SSF on a downtick, there is no uptick rule, there is therefore no reason to have a bullet, at least none that I can see.

I vote for overly great :) I hope IB keeps its execution speed, low cost and good trading platform. Way to go IB!

You can find info on SSF at www.nqlx.com IB offers SSF Nov 8th. I personally trade with IB.

but remember the stocks that go live on Nov 8th are those who have tremendous daily volume such as IBM, ORCL, MSFT etc... Again, it is doubtful that liquidity will be thin on these products. Spreads should not be a concern IMO.

They go live November 8th. I don't know if it will be highly liquid during the first couple of months but i think there are some compelling reasons to trade SSF's rather than the stock. Due to arbitrage opportunities, liquidity should not be a concern.

It's because the software is awesome, I'm not sure if the datafeed technology is all that amazing however. I would have to test various datafeeds to decide. I'm using IB's right now and obviously it's not amazing (being a snapshot of the market and not a tick by tick system) but it does the...

The act of trading is independent from the hardware/software you use. I have listed reasons why I want to switch. I will not let myself be a slave to Microsoft. I'd rather go through headaches and develop a good platform than use MS. I'm sure I can make a platform as good as ESignal on...

Check out www.mytrack.com they have an SDK I believe that will let you connect through their API to a pretty good market feed and it only costs like $35 a month. I am probably going to make a module using their API for Market Data. The RealTick API I have not heard of. How much are they...

Hello fellow traders, I have recently decided to program a trading platform for linux (which uses IB on the backbone). I wanted to know if any one of you are considering or have considered or even ARE using Linux? With all the fuss about the Microsoft World Domination scheme (Palladium) I...

you call IB to sell your shares and they answered: "Hallo! willkommen zu IB, wartete bitte!" Then you'll know that you're really in it deep. :D I WANNA SELL MY SHARES!! "was??" Wie dont understant inglish. hehe

You trade with $8,000,000? I have a question. How do you deal with the threshold? I mean, you can't trade $8M at once, you would move the market, and get whipsawed. So I'm assuming you are trading with a percentage of that or maybe you are trading various instruments/stocks at the same time...
