http://www.traders.com/Documentation/FEEDbk_docs/2005/04/TradersTips/TradersTips.html i probably contributed x10 more than OP already :D while trying to convince him that he was wrong with his statement: this is the future! :D

buy?

http://wl4.wealth-lab.com/cgi-bin/WealthLab.DLL/getpage?page=ChartScriptSearch.htm as been said above-tradestation and other platforms. amibroker etc but again-define mutual use. you throw an idea and that's about it on your part? imo mutual use is where all parties are committing roughly...

sounds like OP is trading open..yeah that's a tough one :) but if rules are strict and no discretion-it can be automated. the way OP describes-semi automated. just give me yes or no and all i have to do is just hit buy\sell button. i have something similar too on one account.

it might depends on how or what exactly are you planning to use in your calculations. i mean-you don't want to write everything from scratch(like some indicators or whatever) and then spend another month testing your code. some of the common stuff been coded already in many apps like wealth...

yep..i have like 3-4 users on same account,running on separate PC's for separate systems.different user/password/card.

what? buy dips/pullbacks of trendline or MA or whatever the right word is? you got to be kidding.. :D if coding is easy-why can't you try yourself?as being said many times here-coding is nothing ,compared to debugging (making sure that all calculations are correct). and it's extremely time...

to be honest- i see no value doing all this to "proof" something that we all already know. and we all know the truth-there is nothing we can do about it and it's not something unusual(as you might see from posters in this thread) i'm not "unique" with such problems

have to look into my records,cause it's not unusual for me to have 100-200 trades a day. i can't remember all of them. the real problem for me will be IB's new "format" for T&S window.cause it's literally sore for my eyes. Occam-i agree,but IB aren't dummies too .they knew this and that's...

+1 :p

it does. Thank you for an explanation! basically it's like a table in database and when you have to update certain fields-you just update one that you need,based on unique identifiers(such as primary key,id,ticker,whatever). but unlike DB it does it on the fly,in RAM. and like you said-in...

how exactly it shuts itself down? if it's a laptop-i would suspect overheated CPU\dead fan then-corrupted MBR\dying hard drive. also-could be capacitors on motherboard

David Thank you for your response! i'm no expert in this and i'm using old VB6(the only thing i know on hobby level) when i tried IQ real time streaming-yes,it give you a single stream here is what i did- first -create array of tickers and datafields you need. for example-400 tickers-then...

yes.that's what tried back then-basically running bunch of instances of same application that are connected to their client via sockets. hashmap!mmm! i have to try it (i'm not a programming pro and know just few basic things)

ok..i'm going to cut my balls and moving to Fargo. sounds like a good plan! :p

1800 tickers streaming unfiltered data-it's a lot of data to digest :p i've tried 200-300(with few liquid ones) and my computer starts choking on it. and i wasn't processing anything , i just inserting the data into a tables with ticker name. i'm having hard time to see how one can do...

i do use yahoo EOD data for cross reference with other providers every single day. there is rarely any differences(talking about close price in particular). i wouldn't use yahoo as a source of historical data,cause i'm not sure how they handle splits,dividends etc. but OP is looking real...

well here we go. but since OP is needed few requests for only 600-1000 tickers into EOD-he can use just regular subscription. having bigger limit probably not going to help him,cause you have to subscribe,wait for response,unsubscribe etc. takes time to process all this. but like i said-few...

ok..i did upgraded my stand alone TWS to latest version first thing i got is this(see file) why status color is yellow-i have no idea. i use to have subscription to a bonds,but not anymore. if it's disconnected-it's disconnected, it shouldn't affect status color in TWS. now if it's...

http://www.gummy-stuff.org/Yahoo-data.htm you download whatever(see fields on link above),but you can't rely on their bid\ask data.cause each exchange\ecn require separate PAID subscription(arca for example) yahoo's bid ask comes from free sources(bats) you can use straight url...
