    Is TWS able to make option orders based on underlying price?

    Yes, this is what I am doing also. I am doing it manually. Buying the Option, then going into the Order ticket. Filling the action in, filling the two OR conditions in for the underlying SPY price,then transmit. I am wondering if any or all of this can be done quicker and easier? It's about 60...

    what are best tweet accounts for intraday news alerts

    The issue with trading the news is that the insiders have already took most if not all of the meat. (Analsysed 1 year of news and price action - its always priced in by the time it hits anywhere in the public realm)

    TWS Latest 10.12.2h VWAP lagging behind- TWS developers

    Same story different day and version. VWAP has been consistently broken in one or more versions of TWS for years. I say, put your money where your mouth is and move on to another broker and platform. IB are not interested.

    Thoughts by users of TRADE-IDEAS and SCANZ

    Some of it. You have the single window with the news in. But it Scanz you can basically filter by stock price and then be alerted to all news articles. It was very good. I found that for pump and dump penny stocks up to 1 dollar, the moment a piece of news comes up in the news filter, you can...

    Thoughts by users of TRADE-IDEAS and SCANZ

    I think Trade Ideas is amazing. I used Trade Idwas and Scanz. The only way that Scanz was better than Trade Ideas was the ability to filter by news items. Ie show stocks with Relative Volume over 1 where 2 new articles were released today. Trade Ideas has stuff related to sentiment or...

    Long calls and stop losses

    I never use a stop loss for Options. Due to the low volume basically you just get dumped on. It's not usual for me to to loose 100% of an option or just let it expire. (Unfortunately)

    TWS - Group Window's Feature Removed in latest version

    When you launch TWS there's an option button. It lets you select between STABLE, LATEST and BETA. I have always used LATEST because for many months the STABLE didnt calculate VWAP correctly, and then after they fixed the VWAP, the Bollinger Bands broke on STABLE. You guys must both be running...
