    Can Please explain new tax plan for pass through biz?

    Forex volume available as data

    No. There is no centralized exchange for forex transactions so any volume is garbage. Tick volume especially so. An individual forex broker might provide volume on their transactions and some institutional trading platforms like Thomson Reuters Matching might have their own, but they...

    Open Auction Executions

    Sometimes several minutes. NYSE is a dinosaur. For some giggles check out the primary exchange open times on NYSE American (somewhat stupid name, was NYSE Mkt - a verystupid name, previously AMEX)

    which price will the accounting software use when shares are called away?

    In tax matters, clearly you select the one that has the most advantageous tax situation for you. In your situation, you're talking peanuts. It would cost you more to get advice on the matter.

    FX Tick Timestamp Question

    Spot FX is a bid/ask environment. It's not regulated so any "ticks" are normally just a shift in the bid and/or ask prices. It doesn't represent actual trades since there is no centralized reporting mechanism anyway. You haven't stated which data vendor/broker you are using. You need to tell...

    IB's TRIN data joins the ranks of Screwed-Up?

    Of course it's a flawed indicator anyway since it is based upon all issues traded on NYSE - so it double-counts multiple classes of stocks, includes preferreds/debt/hybrids, possibly also includes NYSE American and NYSE Arca (ETFs and ETNs). If you don't know how your provider calculates it...

    Looks like Yahoo Download API is now Dead - 11/1/2017

    I have no recommendations for on-demand web requests for live or delayed quotes to replace what Yahoo or others do. I use NxCore for my live intraday feeds and have a second feed of Norgate data for daily timeframe data. I supplement my systems with cross-checks from a number of sources. Why...

    Did anyone else have connection issues with NT8 today?

    Use: Multiple Internet links (with different providers - they can and do use different links to route your traffic). Virtual Private Server(s) that you can remotely log into instead. Many allow you to only pay by the hour.
