Why do you think I am a bot

It is possible that US gov believes a broker film has a good risk disappears so it forces the firm to do something like this for all non US offices so that if it breaks the US gov does need to protect the invested money any of these foreign people. This is only my guessing and you can think...

Very simple, ib hk is a hk broker firm now and only the hk stuff is protected with very limited $. For hk stock only 150k hkd stock is protected. Your US stocks or whatever non hk stuff have zero protection.

It is not hard

The computer that I use to do testing may not be perfectly safe so I don't want to connect it with my live IB trading account. If I download historical data from IB paper trading account, is it the same and accurate as data from live account? Thanks!

Is Zorro good?

This is still the main reason why I only put small amount of money in IB account.

Thx for these experience sharing.

here is his "secret" way of day trading: Weekly up candle+daily up candle =long Weekly down candle+daily down candle=short The other two posibilities: you buy whatever you want I doubt any human can make any money base on this "secret"

Sound like you spent a lot of time on it. Profitable result after 6 years of development?

Thx for sharing. How about spot fx price? The live price is free.

I don't think classical technical analysis is really helpful: https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/ex-bank-trader-uses-hourly-candles-of-hsi-to-day-trade.326736/ so better write my own program

I thought a market subscription is around $10 USD per month

I guess FX historical data is free?

For IB, do I need to pay monthly data subscription fee to get historical data of a market?

IB provides historical data, just not the best.

So I guess I can fully test my system with demo account before buying a monthly market subscription and live trade.

If I want to get historical data, do I need to pay monthly subscription fee for that market? How about if I want to test real time performance with demo account?

Thx I use C sharp and feel creating interface for Java is much harder, I would use C sharp then. Any pain for updating codes for Visual Studio version? Every few years people are forced to update codes if they want to use the latest visual studio.
