Hi Jens , That is a very good suggestion. Especially coming from a person with significant connections with important hedge funds. It does not make sense annyoing the algo people to re-login each time. It must also this be another "bandwidth saving" feature ;-)) except that the relogin...

If you don't bother quoting messages, nobody understands clearly who you are referring to. In case you are talking to me, I am used to work. And as you can see i did not even sleep today. This is also why i get results and things done, while many others don't, and have nothing better to do...

Well depends on the perspective. Consider that "medical technology" relies on the "tech people". Just think about genome sequencing... But you are right in the trading world it still seem that it takes relatively little effort to shine ;-)) Tom

Not sure what you are referring to. IB has actually replied (several PMs) and is working actively on the matter represented here. (I am also expecting a scheduled call). The fact that we can criticize and point out possible issues, while they are here participating and responding in the...

50K ? I don't know what you are talking about. I have made several threads here (journals) showing performances of various algorithms in the years. See links to threads on my webpage. When you develop heavily it's normal that occasionally you want to clean up your environment. About...

As we are at it, there is also another important problem which affects automated trading. In the last few days (say from end of january), i have noted significant differences in the behavior of the <b>IB Gateway</b>. First of all, the Gateway has a significant higher number of...

Nothing, because that is not your core business as a broker. If you need to charge that, then it's better that you close the business. At least this is the way as i would do it, if i should embark in such enterprise (with the right capital). There are even some "brokers" who think they can...

Right, and infact that is exactly what they are going to get with such a limitation: people asking glass of tap waters. Assume a fund (not even a big one) wanted to perform some tests and strategy simulations (perhaps using multiple automated instances) for a period before committing the real...

LOL! It's actually their business. ;-)) Tom

Are you kidding? You have locked one of my account with 100K (and another one with 300K). What kind of fund operations are we going to simulate ? the <b>"United Trust of pennyless Housewives" </b> ? I really thought that IB was a serious broker and i endorsed it with my academical <a...

ahah, actually with all the clients i have brought and bring indirectly (because they want to use my robot) they should probably give me some 10 "honorary accounts" to assist the new funds and prospects which want to simulate my games, not to mention a % on commissions ;-)) "save on...

Don't see how this would "limit" me, as i can open more accounts, or i might download 200+ tickers on my multiple accounts and an unlimited number of demo accounts. Also what about the demo account ? I could open 10 instances on each of my machines. This is totally absurd. Also a limit on...

I am warning you guys so that maybe you avoid what happened to me. IB has introduced limits to the amount of paper money in paper trading account. I know this sounds absurdly ridiculous, as the purpose of a paper trading account is to <b> let people and funds test before committing real...

You can say it is "elegant", or that it is "beautiful". But calling it "simple math" sounds to me as an insult to one of the highest achievement of human intellect. When looking at these profound mysteries and beauty we must be humble and do not dare look down on them as they were "simple"...

What a nonsense one has to hear. Why don't you use this one then : phi^2 = phi + sin((n+1/2)x) / sin(x/2) - 2 cos(x) - 2 cos(2x) - 2 cos(3x) - ... - 2 cos (nx) So you dare call Euler's identity "simple math". You must be a real genius. Why dont you point us to a similar or better...

Right, infact <b>MAESTRO</b> (which means "teacher" or "master") is evidently just a perfect nickname for one who wants to humbly listen and learn, and not instead professorially educate us, poor ignorant rednecks, who evidently know nothing about trading... ;-)) Tom

I am happy to see you read and understood "derailing for dummies" http://www.derailingfordummies.com/ "vikipedia" is good enough to respond to your level of approximation. In your, case i could even say: "vikicacca" Or do you expect people bother check the spelling to respond to any troll...

Thanks for letting us know what wikipedia says (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_process) you must be really bored... to spend your time teasing people ... ;-)) Tom
