I guess you can't read. Go back and read my post. I said I was not having data problems with the latest build. I also said I had not read of anyone else having data problems either. As you obviously know, THE minute anyone has ANY problem, it gets posted on here immediately. Yet we haven't...

Again, I'm not having a data problem with Build 870.2, nor am I reading of any data problems. But hey, I guess you know better eh? By the way, have you noticed that the only posts you make about ANY broker always bash them? LOL. OldTrader

Nice trade last week. OldTrader

That's so often the case, isn't it? RBOB has had a very nice move. OldTrader

Rockford: Perhaps you could address your own question. What are your credentials and professional qualifications as it applies to security issues? Because until SL65 mentioned "multiple layers of security", you had not said anything of significance other than regarding "psychological...

I have no idea whether a stop issue exists, or whether if it does, if it was fixed. I only commented because you appear to not update your TWS because of a belief that there is a data issue present in the later builds. I think that belief is false. OldTrader

I've upgraded to build 868 without problem. I'm now using the latest...build 870.2 the last few days. No problem with data. OldTrader

Really, you need to provide some detail to make this a credible statement. A stop order (not a stop limit order) will always "work"....you just may not like the execution. When I say "always", I'm not counting a situation where the market places an artificial set of circumstances into the...

Rockford: When you illustrate how the security of my computer is in any way similar to the levees in New Orleans,d I may take your statement more seriously. Until then, I will simply say that the statements you make concerning N.O. may well be true, but the fact that they are true, does not...

I agree. OldTrader

I'd be a buyer of weakness, provided it sets up right. I don't have a weekly trade like you do. I don't trade like that...I'm much more reactive to what the market does. About the only thing I'm not will to do at this time is short the market. That isn't to say it won't work, or that it...

Why would you use a stop of $3 per barrel, for a profit of half that? OldTrader

Nick: Yes, I read that explanation. But how exactly can IB ever control a trojan on an individual computer? And where is the customer's responsibility? How does a trojan "take over" your computer when your computer has routers, firewalls, antiviral software, spyware software? That...

Would you care to explain WHY you are making this claim? So far Hound Dog and Local Crusher have made statements that go unexplained. Perhaps you have something to say that is a little more substantial. Still waiting. OldTrader

It seems to me that no broker, IB or anyone else, would be responsible for security problems beyond their own system. Why would they? Maybe that's not your point. Maybe what you're trying to say is that even with this security device someone can hack into my account, due to a failure in IB's...

Pabst: Thanks for the comments. But trust me when I tell you I've made more than a few mistakes since the 1960s....lol. You know really, what's most important to me has to do with the type of market. What you need is a market when you can use a reasonable stop that still allows you to...

The security device is going to preclude anyone from signing on to TWS without the use of your device. And even with your device, they would need to know your personal pin code to use your device. I suggest you review the details of the working of the security device. Now, whether anyone...

Call me crazy, but it looks to me like you're still scalping based on the trades you've posted. LOL! What did I miss? Don't get me wrong....I'm not as jaundiced about "scalping" as you seem to be, depending on how you define scalping. Jumping in and out for a couple of ticks in the ES...

Need some advice here. I currently operate 2 computers connected with a wired D-Link router over cable. What I'm wanting to do is hook up AT&T Yahoo DSL in a way that when/if cable goes out, I switch over to DSL, or vice versa. So I jumped out the other day and subscribed to AT&T DSL...

Ah ha. Mine's the smaller size. But I'm with you...I like the security regardless of the key size. OldTrader
